We tend to confuse purity codes and moral codes

Prissi: We confuse purity codes with moral codes. I might not want to see men having sex, that doesn't mean that that is anyway a moral judgment on my part. A lot of the way we have persecuted gay people is because we have confused a purity code, disgust reaction with a legitimate moral argument. Prissi: What diogenes was trying to do was get you to pull apart the moral code from the purity code.
