This work analyzes the proper role of the state in defining and regulating matters of a “sexual” character and expounds the current law on a selection of sexual offences, such as homosexual offences; rape; indecent assault; and street offences. Analysis of the legal developments concentrates upon a number of apparent conflicts and anomalies, including the “public/private” dichotomy exemplified by the Wolfenden Committee Report; perspectives on “permissiveness”; notions of harm and consent; the age of consent debate; and the appropriate limits to state paternalism.
