Description of Pictures: Sex and the Constitution
Author Geoffrey R. Stone talks about his new book, “Sex and the Constitution,” which chronicles the epic story of how sex came to be legislated in America.
The book explores how two centuries of American law have imposed regulations over contraception, abortion, obscenity and sodomy, and looks ahead to future fights in a battle-worn Supreme Court, as justices navigate profoundly divisive yet vital issues.
“Sex and the Constitution” shows how our sexual mores sprang not only from Enlightenment-era revolutionaries, but extend further back to Judeo-Christian beliefs about sex, sin and shame.
The event was moderated by John Maynard from the Newseum.
The audience included David S. Tatel, a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit since 1994.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.)
I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
