Law Regarding Same-sex Sexual Activity

Same-sex sexual activity was legalised in 1977. The age of consent was equalised in 1998 when it was specified as 14 by the Croatian Criminal Code. The acts themselves ban "sexual relations with a child" while it is later defined that a child is a person under the age of 14.

Famous quotes containing the words law and/or activity:

    No. I am not the law in your mind,
    the grandfather of watchfulness.
    I am the law of your members,
    the kindred of blackness and impulse.
    See. Your hand shakes.
    It is not palsy or booze.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Dissent is the native activity of the scientist, and it has got him into a good deal of trouble in the last years. But if that is cut off, what is left will not be a scientist. And I doubt whether it will be a man.
    Jacob Bronowski (1908–1974)
