New IPPF Sexual Rights propaganda

By Susan Yoshihara, Ph.D. | June 27, 2011

From the purveyors of “Happy, Healthy, and Hot” comes a new “declaration” grounded in International Planned Parenthood’s “core values” which promotes sexual license, homosexuality, and abortion without parental consent for young people (in UN terms 10-24 years of age):

Here is just a sampling from the definition of sexual rights:

• The ability to enjoy and exercise every
human right, including sexual rights.

• Legal protection from any form of
discrimination, regardless of sex, gender,
sexual orientation, or any other personal
characteristic.

• Gender-sensitive and gender equitable
laws, policies and services.

• Equal age-of-consent and age-of-marriage
for both same-sex and different-sex couples.

• Elimination of laws, policies, practices
and attitudes that promote gendered
stereotypes and misconceptions that
certain sexes, genders or gender
expressions are better than others.

• Elimination of laws and policies that
punish consensual sexual activity among
young people of the same sex, in line with
the evolving capacities of young people.

• Elimination of all forms of gender-based
discrimination that affect young people.

• Removal of parental involvement or
spousal consent laws that prevent
young people from seeking sexual and
reproductive health services.

• The ability to make decisions about one’s
sexuality and to have these decisions
respected based on each young person’s
evolving capacities.
