Abstract
Sexuality is a vital component of human life. Sexuality deals with procreation and pleasure. Sexual behaviours and orientations vary and may be related to mental health. Some sexual orientations may be discriminated or censored by religious or political beliefs, and this has a big impact on sexual variations. Frequently, sexual variations are considered to be pathological and need to be medically treated. However, it should be accepted that sexuality includes a continuum of behaviours, thoughts, fantasies, acts, and attractions that are beyond procreation. Modern sexology introduced the concept of gender identity and sexual fluidity to describe how gender and sexual orientation vary and are flexible over time. Healthcare professionals and policy makers should be aware of these new definitions in order to meet health needs of sexually variant people and prevent sexuality discrimination.
