What is Sexuality?
Sexuality is a central aspect of being human
throughout life and encompasses sex, gender
identities and roles, sexual orientation, eroticism,
pleasure, intimacy and reproduction. Sexuality is
experienced and expressed in thoughts, fantasies,
desires, beliefs, attitudes, values, behaviors,
practices, roles and relationships. While sexuality can
include all of these dimensions, not all of them are
always experienced or expressed. Sexuality is
influenced by the interaction of biological,
psychological, social, economic, political, cultural,
ethical, legal, historical and religious and spiritual
factors.**
What is Sexual Health?
Sexual health is a state of physical, emotional, mental
and social well-being related to sexuality; it is not
merely the absence of disease, dysfunction or
infirmity. Sexual health requires a positive and
respectful approach to sexuality and sexual
relationships, as well as the possibility of having
pleasurable and safe sexual experiences, free of
coercion, discrimination and violence. For sexual
health to be attained and maintained, the sexual
rights of all persons must be respected, protected
and fulfilled.**
