Against Prudery

Just as Sister Y hits the right note, Amanda Marcotte, a heavy hitter in blogging’s big leagues, decides to weigh in on the side of the angels. Favorite excerpt:

I was more in in the camp of arguing, “Kids should be taught to honor their sexualities, to demand the right to feel pleasure (with the enthusiastic consent caveat!), and to value sexual diversity, because sex is a good thing. It’s part of being human. Pleasure is how we know we’re alive.” A more radical, pro-liberty, pro-pleasure approach is the only way to win this argument.

But by all means, read the whole thing.
