Hear, hear, that's it. Socially liberal means you want citizens to as free from legislation (and therefore government) as possible. That means, basically, The Golden Rule. So let's take your NAMBLA example: that would definitely be illegal to a social liberal because it involves minors. This would differ from, say, adult prostitution which would involve only adults of sound mind. Or Gay Marriage that involves adults of sound mind. Social Liberal = Keep the gov't out of the private affairs of adults. Literally.
