This issue of the Mattachine Review, published in July 1963, features the article 'A New Morality Needed: Towards a Quaker View of Sex', a reprint of a report first published by the Literary Committee of the Friends Home Service Committee in Great Britain. The document discusses the history of Christian attitudes to sexuality, critiques traditional church teachings, and advocates for a new, compassionate, and responsible sexual morality. The issue also includes essays, reviews, and commentary on topics such as homosexuality, morality and the law, literary works, and the social context of sexual variance. The publication is a significant contribution to discussions on sexual ethics and law reform within the context of early 1960s American homophile activism.
