What is humanism? What are its views on human sexuality?

What will be an ideal response?


Humanism is one of the broad mainstreams of nonreligious ethics. Humanistic ethics insist that values can be found only in human experience in this world, as observed by the philosopher or social scientist. In the area of human sexuality, humanism demands a realistic approach to behavior. Humanism is very distrustful of the legalistic approach. It seeks real intimacy between persons and condemns impersonal and exploitative relationships.
