Therefore, we call for the repeal of all laws that restrict anyone, including children, from engaging in voluntary exchanges of goods, services, or information regarding human sexuality, reproduction, birth control, or related medical or biological technologies." <HH
The "therefore" was taken out in the 2004 Platform. This change clearly implies an intent to make the second sentence stand on its own and apart from the first sentence's context of unwanted pregnancies. Also, "human sexuality" is a much broader topic than "unwanted pregnancies". Grammatically, the second sentence as written in the 2004 Platform appears to call for the legalization of child prostitution.
