Sexual Misconduct

[Wind Song]

For those who condemn homosexuality as a sin, I want to show how it isn't one in Buddhism.

"Aware of the suffering caused by sexual misconduct, I vow to cultivate responsibility and learn ways to protect the safety and integrity of individuals, couples, families and society. I am determined not to engage in sexual relations without love and a long-term commitment. To preserve the happiness of myself and others, I am determined to respect my commitments and the commitments of others. I will do everything in my power to protect children from sexual abuse and to prevent couples and families from being broken by sexual misconduct."
Thich Nhat Hanh has a commentary on the 3rd Precept.

Is falling asleep after sex sexual misconduct? I mean, from a Buddhist perspective. Seems to me it would be, since sleeping doesn't strike me as enlightening.

No, it's not sexual misconduct to fall asleep after sex. Sleeping can be enlightening. It's possible to dream consciously.
