(*) The aims are stated in the Statute and here they are reported in full:

1. Censured APS is an independent association, open to women and men without any discrimination on religious, political, sexual, ethnic or nationality basis. It is recognized as a social formation where the human nature takes place, as such it is recognized by the Italian Republic and
its rights are guaranteed under Article 2 of the Constitution. It is constituted according to Legislative Decree 117/17 as a Third Sector Organization, meaning by this an "intermediate organization" which, by using private funds, serves the public interest. Censured APS acknowledges sexual orientation as inviolable and essential for the full development and fulfilment of each individual's personality; it also acknowledges the importance of the "homosexual culture"; as the common traditions, values and vocabulary that define the national and international homosexual community, and commits itself to spreading its practice according to the principle provided by Article 21 of the Constitution.

2. The Association encourages a free and hedonistic conception of people' sexual experience, seen as an opportunity to express mutual pleasure and sharing among adult and consenting people; the Association wants to be a solid reference point for those who wish to get to know themselves and the others in the most intimate aspects of their life, beyond any form of social prejudice. The Association protects the largest freedom of expression of the personal emotions, exercised respecting the fundamental and inviolable rights of the individual. Following the spirit of art. 3 of the Constitution, it also contributes to overcoming situations of potential social and cultural limitation, due to the general feeling of rejection and exclusion of those people who, for personal leanings, choose the practice of homosexual experiences. The social purpose of public interest is therefore to constitute a "place", even virtual, free from the moral judgment of common morality, where members, who share the same homosexual culture, can freely express the most intimate aspects of their personality, among " like-minded" and consenting adults.

3. The Association repudiates any form of coercion, violence, including verbal violence and prostitution; it fights against paedophilia and drug use.
