  • 15. Homosexuality Among Females Evolution to Revolution
    Indian Journal of Health, Sexuality & Culture Volume (5), Issue (1) Review Article Homosexuality among Females: Evolution to Revolution Monika Thakur1, Keerthi Mohanan2 1Consultant Editor,CBS Medical Publisher, New Delhi, India 2Tutor, College of Nursing, AIIMS, Patna, Bihar, India Abstract Females were not given the liberty to express their sexuality in historically male dominated world until education was accessible to them and women were educated to socialize their thinking. Homosexuality refers to same sex attraction. Although much was written about male homosexuality, female homosexuality is less studied and still reasons for female homosexuality are not that evident. A huge gap could be identified between early recognition of symptoms of homosexuality to self-acceptance and disclosure to other's about own -sexual-orientation. Although family is usually the first place for disclosure of own sexual orientation, fear sustains regarding acceptance. Homosexual women face multiple problems in all walks of life and may be abused or denied basic rights for a dignified living. An empathetic and non-judgemental attitude from the clinicians might help in easily approaching the mental and physical health issues faced by female homosexuals. Keywords: Homosexuality, Females, Lesbianism Date Received : 21st March 2019 Date Accepted: 21st June 2019 Correspondence should be addressed to : Monika Thakur Consultant Editor,CBS Medical Publisher, New Delhi, India Email- [email protected] Introduction based on those attractions, related Homosexuality is characterized by behaviours and membership to having sexual contact with same other females (APA, 2008) This sex, either as a genital act or article tries to give an overview maintaining a long-term sexual regarding the origin of homosexuality /erotic status.

  • Consultation Seeking Views on UN Women Approach to Sex Work, the Sex Trade and Prostitution”
    Response to the UN Women’s call on: “Consultation seeking views on UN Women approach to sex work, the sex trade and prostitution” October 2016 This statement has been jointly prepared by 81 sex worker rights, women’s rights, and human rights organizations (list still in formation).1 We are writing this statement in response to UN Women’s call for submissions in an e-consultation about the development of a UN Women policy on sex work. A number of sex workers’, women’s and human rights organizations have been engaging with UN Women for some months about this proposed policy, stressing the importance of a process that meaningfully engages with a broad range of sex workers’ and women’s rights organizations as essential to the process of developing a policy. While UN Women has stated that they are engaging in an open process, we are alarmed at the possibility that the end result will not support the human rights of sex workers.1 For instance, the wording of question 3, to us, indicates an already established point of view. They ask “The sex trade is gendered. How best can we protect women in the trade from harm, violence, stigma and discrimination?” While we would certainly agree that sex workers of all genders face discrimination, harm, stigma and violence, we note that there is ample evidence that decriminalization of sex work is the best remedy to empower sex workers to advocate for their rights and to engage with state and non-state actors to secure their rights. It is imperative to clearly distinguish consensual sex work from human trafficking, as well as recognize that there are female, male and transgender sex workers.

Rights, Justice and Dignity An action-research study on women survivors of violence and shelter homes in Delhi Action India, Jagori and Nazariya On behalf of Lam-lynti Chittara Neralu a national network for shelter homes in India Supported by the American Jewish World Service ABOUT LAM-LYNTI CHITTARA NERALU Shelter homes for female survivors of violence have long been a tangential, if not missing, piece in the conversations among the human rights, feminist and women’s rights groups and movement. This recognition by several women’s rights activists and LGBTQ groups, feminist collectives and NGOs from across the country led to two national-level consultations in 2016. The first one in March 2016 was hosted by Vimochana (Bangalore) and the second took place during October in Delhi, courtesy of Jagori, AALI, SWATI and Action India. Groups from different parts of the country shared their experiences of running shelter homes, offering referrals to shelter homes and/or support services to survivors; they talked about conditions for and concerns of staff members of shelter homes, undertaking small studies on shelter homes, counselling and so on. These conversations, wide-ranging observations and experiences were consolidated in the various Time for Overhauls report.1 These vigorous conversations led to the genesis of an informal, national network of shelter homes called Lam-lynti Chittara Neralu (LCN).
