Sex- and Body-Positive
Care should be affirming and supportive of all bodies and sexual activity that is safe and consensual.
Wanted, noncoercive, pleasurable sexual activity has many physical, emotional, and social benefits.47 Providing sex-positive SRH care is important to helping people achieve their highest level of sexual health.48 Providers should promote open dialogue about sexual functioning and pleasure by using nonjudgmental, open-ended language.39
