A civil right is an enforceable right or privilege, which if interfered with by another gives rise to an action for injury and which ensure one's ability to participate in the civil and political life of the society and state without discrimination or repression.[1] The phrase "civil rights" is a translation of Latin ius civis (rights of a citizen). Roman citizens could be either free (libertas) or servile (servitus), but they all had rights in law.[2]
"It's about having laws that are reasonable, and which punish transgression only as severely as similar non-sexual transgressions are punished. It's about non-discrimination based on a perception of ones sexual interests. It's about the freedom to enlighten the public without retaliation, so that they may make informed decisions on such matters. It's about not being sexually profiled and entrapped because you bought an art book or a DVD the government disapproves of." [3]
