Liberals appointed to the Supreme Court, by liberals, result in decisions that result in fallout like this. Of course liberals don’t call all this “fallout”, they call it “progressive”. Note how “progressive” begets more such “progress”. I wonder where this will lead—because I don’t suppose the whole “progressive” thing ends here.

More Canadians enjoying group sex
Sean Patrick Sullivan, Canadian Press
Published: Sunday, May 14, 2006A 2005 Supreme Court decision that cleared the way for swingers clubs appears to be bringing out Canada’s more, well, adventurous side.
Those who prefer life closer to the edge of the conjugal bed say the high court’s re-interpretation last December of the definition of indecency has fuelled a growing interest in private clubs that feature group sex, partner swapping, voyeurism and exhibitionism.
The high court effectively legalized such clubs when it rules that consenting adults who engage in sexual activity behind closed doors while like-minded people look on are not committing indecent acts.
Five months later, their operators say more aggressive advertising and marketing efforts in the wake of the ruling have attracted significantly more people to their events.
“I think there’s a great opportunity to provide a safe environment where couples can really enhance their sex life,” said Linda Fox, who operates Club Eden in Vancouver with partner Jason Walters.
Club Eden, which opened just last weekend, is a so-called “on-premises” club, which means private and shared rooms are available for members. Other clubs typically meet in hotel rooms or private homes.
The Supreme Court decision allowed Club Eden and others like it to stop being so discreet about what’s been going on behind their closed doors—and to try to open people’s minds at the same time, Fox said.
[…] Ben Zion said she believes the ruling’s biggest impact wasn’t so much in changing Canadian attitudes as it was about making like-minded, sexually liberal people aware that gathering places such as Eden and Wicked even existed in the first place.
“When they hear about us, they’re interested in discovering this kind of lifestyle,” she said.
“They think, `I’m not a freak, it’s okay to do this, and I’m going to try it out.’ It not only legalized it, I think it legitimized it in the eyes of public opinion.”
Reive Doig, an organizer with a Vancouver company that promotes events dedicated to the swing lifestyle, said attitudes about sex and sexuality are changing partly because of a proliferation of sex-friendly information and positive media coverage.
“People are starting to realize that these are parts of normal human sexuality,” said Doig, whose company, BIO Event Productions, hosted the annual Conference of Kink this month. “The media is no longer always portraying us as serial killers and freaks.”

This is great for our nation’s families and kids. Way to go, liberals.
Vote liberal.
