Answer:
Sexual freedom is the idea of sexual expression being free from arbitrary shackles prescribed by tradition – and sometimes even by law. Sexual expression that is often shunned and ruled against includes celibacy, non-marital sex, LGBTQ sex, and open discussion about safe sex or how to go about having sex in a world where there are people living with STI’s.
Sexual freedom is the license to lawfully live with and love whom you want, when you want, and how you want without social, political, medical or cultural persecution. Sexual freedom flows from the belief that human sexuality cannot be prescribed or legislated, and is a natural, fundamental and precious aspect of life. Too often suppressed under the weight of societal norms, sexual freedom deserves attention and validation. When we embrace sexual freedom, we embrace human rights as a whole. Only then can we truly acknowledge, protect, and celebrate the unique individuality of every being.
With that being said, not everyone is able to experience sexual freedom, and that usually (in my opinion) leads to people rebelling against societal norms in regards to sexual expression and acting out in ways that may not be particularly safe.
