UN Declaration of Human Rights

关键概述-性健康的含义

什么是性健康?

举例:性权利-联合国人权宣言

不巧的是,联合国1948年的人权宣言没有提及性权利。当时,人们总是抨击这种疏忽,不过自此以后也没有什么改进。
甚至到了今天,人权宣言也未获联合国大会通过。

这种含蓄的局面意味着,有人并不允许大多数人按照世界卫生组织关于性健康的定义达到性健康。然而,这种无人理睬的、即使不可避免的结果也是值得质疑的。如果把这种人权宣言运用于现代西方多元价值标准社会,那么这是否公平,是否常常会显得过于陈腐,难道是文明的?

  1998年,联合国人权宣言50周年纪念。

 The UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights had its 50th anniversary in 1998.

1951年,居住和工作在泰国的法裔法官René GuyonIn撰写了一本抨击联合国人权宣言的宣传册,认为宣言未做到保护性权利。

In 1951, the French-born judge René Guyon, who lived and worked in Thailand, wrote a brochure attacking the UN for their failure to protect sexual rights.

Critical Introduction - The Meaning of Sexual Health

What is Sexual Health?

Example: Sexual Rights - UN Declaration of Human Rights

It is no coincidence that the UN Declaration of Universal Human Rights of 1948 does not mention sexual rights. This omission was already criticized at the time, but since then little has changed.
Even today, no declaration of universal sexual rights could  be passed by the UN general assembly.

This means, by implication, that the largest part of humanity is not allowed to be sexually healthy according to the latest WHO definition. However, this unspoken, if inevitable conclusion is problematic, too. Is it really justified to apply  modern Western criteria of right and wrong  to very different, and often much older, cultures?
