Sexual Ethics and the Law
About the event
Melanie will lead a discussion about how sexual ethics have impacted laws, and laws have been overturned due to changes in ethics. Conversation will be limited to consensual sexual activities, mainly focusing on consent laws, marital laws, anti-miscegenation laws, and public morality. We will meet at a location in Central Austin (near Lions Municipal Golf Course). Send email to doncastig@gmail.com for the address of this meetup.
Optionally join us for lunch after the meeting.

Typical attendance 10-15 humanists.
Please note: Atheists, agnostics, skeptics, free-thinkers, questioning, and believers - whatever you like to call yourselves, you are welcome here.
At AHC we call ourselves secular humanists because you will never hear anything supernatural promoted from the podium. AHC was founded on the principles of scientific naturalism and secular ethics, which commits us, on the one hand, to reason and evidence-based thinking, and, on the other, to compassion for our fellow human beings. These commitments motivate us to oppose magical and wishful thinking and all forms of dogma, as well as to stand firmly against all forms of oppression.
