Consenting Adult Sex Bill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Consenting Adult Sex Bill is a consenting adult law, passed in California in January 1976, that repealed the sodomy law in California and made gay sex legal for the first time. George Moscone, an early proponent of gay rights, in conjunction with his friend and ally in the Assembly, Willie Brown, managed to get the bill passed, repealing the existing Californian laws against sodomy. The repeal was signed into law by California Governor Jerry Brown.
