Sexual Autonomy

Sexual autonomy refers to the right of individuals to make informed choices about their own sexual and reproductive health without coercion or interference. This includes the freedom to decide whom to engage with sexually, when, and in what manner. It emphasizes consent, personal agency, and the importance of being able to access necessary information and services. Upholding sexual autonomy is essential for individual dignity and human rights, enabling people to express their sexuality safely, responsibly, and in a way that aligns with their personal values and beliefs.
