SexualLaw Reporter

The SexualLaw Reporter, a bi-monthly newsletter which started publication on April 1, covers a field that has been long neglected by the general news media and the specialized press.

In an age in which sexual awareness is developing rapidly, there is a strong impetus toward sexual law reform that requires a reliable line of communication if it is to grow and be successful.

The SexualLaw Reporter is developing a nationwide communications network that will, through the newsletter, inform sexual law reform activists, members of the bench and bar, law school professors and students, and others, of judicial and legislative efforts — both successes and failures — on the federal, state, and local levels.

In addition, the SexualLaw Reporter will cover related fields, such as sociology, theology, literature, medicine and psychology, among others. The newsletter will explore how various disciplines contribute toward strengthening or loosening current sexual law and attitudes — and what role they play in reshaping those laws and attitudes.

This newsletter, published by a nonprofit corporation, is not a totally neutral publication. While it will not take positions on legislation or lobby for specific changes, its editorial policy contends that many legal sexual restraints as currently written and enforced, are often detrimental to the exercise of democratic rights.

The first issue of the SexualLaw Reporter — April/May, 2975 — is indicative of the direction it will take, although it must be stressed that the newsletter will cover the entire country an all sexual categories — heterosexual, homosexual, ambisexual. In fact, it will cover asexual and transsexual, when appropriate.
