Critical Introduction - The Meaning of Sexual Health

What is Sexual Health?

The WHO as Pioneer

The World Health Organization has dared to provide definitions of sexual health, and for this it deserves just as much recognition as criticism. These definitions may not be universally and eternally valid, but the ideal they proclaim has some value for our own society at the present time. This ideal summarizes the best hopes of many women and men living today, and it can - in competition with other ideals – have some benign influence on the way we conduct ourselves.
