The World Health Organisation (WHO) definition of sexual health is:
"A state of physical, emotional, mental and social well-being related to sexuality;
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 protected, respected and
fulfilled".
