UNITED NATIONS (AP) The U.S. government says it will begin using the term sexual rights in discussions of human rights and global development.
The statement at a U.N. meeting this week comes after years of lobbying from groups who have argued that the U.S. should show global leadership on the rights of people of all gender identities and sexual orientations.
The statement, posted on a State Department website, says sexual rights include peoples right to have control over and decide freely and responsibly on matters related to their sexuality, including sexual and reproductive health, free of coercion, discrimination, and violence.
The Washington-based Center for Health and Gender Equity pointed out the statement Thursday and said it was delighted.
On one level, its symbolic. It also sends a signal to the global community that sexual and reproductive health and rights are a part of the global development agenda, Serra Sippel, the centers president, told The Associated Press. She said it follows huge strides made under the Obama administration on LGBT issues.

The economy has gone to hell. The country is being overrun by invaders and the sexual deviants in DC are sitting on their asses coming up with new terms for sexual deviants to throw around. Thanks Barry!
