I absolutely believe that a healthy sexual relationship is one of life’s great joys. Maslow was right on about including it in his hierarchy of needs.
My discomfort doesn’t lie with prisoners having sex per se. I am uncomfortable with sexual relationships between people in two very different places of power. Sex can be a natural expression of love but it is also often used as a tool in power plays.
