9/23/19 discussion about frustration with studying sex law and sex theory

Here is the link to my September 23, 2019, Twitter thread discussion about my changing feelings about studying sex law and sex theory.

At this time I was in the middle of my first attempt at reading Patrick Califia's book Public Sex. I discuss the book a lot more over the following weeks.

Nowadays, I don't agree with a lot of what I said in this thread. I do believe nowadays that it's important to study sex law and sex theory. I don't know how possible it is to change the law. But I do think it's very important to understand the history of the law.

Where I agree with this thread is, I find it very important to learn as many stories as possible about queer sex -- especially stories, and there are plenty out there -- about youth/adult love. The stories are, I still believe, way more important than the laws and the theories.

Thank you for reading. Please enjoy.
