Sex and Wicca

Sexuality for Wiccans is a sacred thing. Wiccans believe that sex is a gift from Divinity to be shared in love and trust, and to be reveled in as a pleasurable experience. However, Wiccans do not abuse sex. While Wicca allows sex before marriage, its main tenet is that sex (as all things) should be practiced out of love between consenting individuals. Therefore, forced sex (rape, sexual abuse of children or animals, etc.) and other misuses of sex (such as using sex to gain a position of power) are never tolerated.

This means that Wiccans do not practice perverse sexual orgies in their rites, nor does any legitimate Wiccan group require sexual acts for membership. Clothing is sometimes optional at Wiccan/Pagan gatherings (you may hear the term "skyclad" to describe nudity in these situations), but this is symbolic of freedom and of connection to nature, and does not take on any sort of sexualized meaning.

While I agree completely with the first paragraph, the second is completely false. Many Wiccan traditions include sex in their rites (Great Rite anyone?), especially older more "traditional" groups. If you don't want to be part of a group that uses sex then don't join... but to say that a group that uses sex in their rites is not legitimate is pure ignorance.
