Description

Why is an actor who is paid to have sex on camera in a pornographic film not guilty of prostitution? Does your constitutional right to privacy include the right to commit adultery? If a company sells a product with an obscene name, can the company register that name as a trademark? In the latest installment of this popular series, Peter Afrasiabi answers these and many other interesting questions while reviewing the laws that govern sex, human sexual conduct, and the viewing of sexual conduct, including issues of constitutional, copyright, criminal, family and trademark law.
