John Stuart Mill's insights into Utilitarianism provide a nuanced understanding of pleasure that transcends the simplistic views of his predecessors, particularly Jeremy Bentham. Mill argues that higher pleasures, derived from intellectual and moral faculties, are more valuable than mere physical gratification, advocating for a balance between liberty and order.
In contrast to the teleological systems criticized by conservatives, Mill's approach emphasizes the cultivation of noble character and virtue ethics. This perspective can guide contemporary discussions on tradition and governance, suggesting that the pursuit of happiness, rooted in compassion and self-sacrifice, may align more closely with conservative values than previously acknowledged.

Critics, including parents and conservative groups, worry that the law could restrict their ability to express dissent regarding gender identity issues.
