The '''right to sexuality''' incorporates the right to express one's [[sexuality]] and to be free from discrimination on the grounds of [[sexual orientation]]. Specifically,Although it relatesis equally applicable to the[[heterosexuality]], it also encompasses [[human rights]] of people of diverse sexual orientations, including [[lesbian]], [[gay]], [[bisexualasexuality|asexual]] and [[transgender]] ([[LGBTbisexual]]) people, and the protection of those rights, although it is equally applicable to [[heterosexuality]]. The right to sexuality and freedom from discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation is based on the universality of human rights and the inalienable nature of rights belonging to every person by virtue of being [[human]].
 
No right to sexuality exists explicitly in [[international human rights law]]; rather, it is found in a number of [[international human rights instruments]] including the [[Universal Declaration of Human Rights]], the [[International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights]] and the [[International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights]].
