“性健康是指涉及性(sexuality)的身體、情感、精神和社會適應的完好狀態；它不僅僅是指沒有疾病、無功能障礙或身體不虛弱。性健康需要積極地和敬重地處理有關性的事物和性關係，也需要具有愉悅而安全的性體驗的能力，沒有性強制、性歧視和性暴力。為了獲得和維持性健康，每一個人的所有性權利必須得到尊重、保護和滿足。”

"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."
