News from the U.S.
Huge Report on Lawrence vs. Texas
Hope for sexwork but long battle looms
Chicago 2/28 - 2/29/2004 Swing Leadership Conference
Great conference especially the legal discussion by two experienced sexual rights attorney's of Lawrence vs Texas which has very wide implications for all sexual expression. Not just swinging but even prostitution hopeful comments by the attorney's that private prostitution may be ruled a constitutionally protected right.
As Newsweek said, Lawrence vs. Texas one of the 3 most important Supreme Court decisions in the last 100 years. It represents a total shift on how sexual expression should be a right and no longer can "morality" laws be legitimate.
However the religious right fanatics and the Bush Dynasty will not accept the cultural and legal progress and will fight hard to stop the march towards more individual liberties and freedom of sexual expression. The conference is for swing leadership but includes 2 sessions on Lawrence vs. Texas:
Lawrence vs Texas - Reed Lee, with Chicago law firm of J.D. Obenberger
Lawrence vs Texas: the Supreme Court and Our Right to Have Sex -Jim Turner, Attorney Swankin and Turner
