Mission Statement  
The National Coalition for Sexual Freedom is a national organization committed to creating a political, legal, and social environment in the United States that advances equal rights of consenting adults who practice forms of alternative sexual expression. NCSF is primarily focused on the rights of consenting adults in the SM-leather-fetish, swing, and polyamory communities, who often face discrimination because of their sexual expression.

 Why You Should Care  
 

Because your sexual expression...
 
  • Can result in discrimination, prosecution, and even violence against you
    Can cause you to lose your children
    Can cause you to lose your job or your income
    Can lead you into a maze of antiquated laws and regulations you never even knew existed
    Is arbitrarily criminalized by state and local authorities
    Is used by the radical right to marginalize minority groups
    Can result in the invasion of your privacy by the government, both within your own home or in educational, social and group environments


You are invited to stop by and fill out the anonymous Violence & Discrimination Survey, even if you have not been a victim of violence or discrimination.  Thank you!

So much oppression in our culture is based on shame about sex: the oppression of women, of cultural minorities, oppression in the name of the (presumably asexual) family, oppression of sexual minorities. We are all oppressed. We have all been taught, one way or another, that our desires, our bodies, our sexualities, are shameful. What better way to defeat oppression than to get together in communities and celebrate the wonders of sex?
