Sexual rights and freedom for young people

We live in a society that criminalises and bans countless forms of sexual expression, including consenting sex between young people. Banning consensual sex does not protect young people from abuse.

A world that denies the sexuality of young people is a world which denies the existence of sexual abuse and makes the victims feel to blame, rather than teaching young people in advance about problems they may face and to speak out about it.

REVOLUTION fights for:

No laws against consenting sex - no criminalisation of ?underage? lovers.

Strict laws against rape and domestic violence.

There must be no religious or parental limitations on sex education. Young people must be full informed about and supported in their sexuality and reproductive rights.

Free access to decent housing for young people, democratically run and controlled by the youth themselves.
