Right to Love

There is an issue that I've been wanting to discuss about for so long, but I never had the courage to do so. Why? Because it is somehow a very sensitive issue, called "Right to Love". I believe it equality between gender, I believe in human rights, yet I still belief in the norms of religion. This is solely on my point of view and on what I believe should have taken place long ago. If my opinions and suggestion are wrong then let it be, all I'm doing right now is to share some piece of mind, a piece of opinion that I believe should be consider by others.

Right to Love

Sexual orientation and gender identity are integral to every person's dignity and humanity and must not be on the basis for discrimination or abuse. However, some people have faced discrimination and violation of their rights. There is a need to learn the basic human rights related to one's sexual orientation and gender identity, for one to live a healthy life with dignity. 

Let us learn on the following rights of individuals:
  • Principle 1 - The Right to the Universal Enjoyment of Human Rights.
  • Principle 2 - The Rights to Equality and Non-discrimination.
  • Principle 3 - The Right to recognition before the law.
  • Principle 4 - The Right to Life.
