RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Exploring Female Sexuality JF North Carolina Medical Journal JO N C Med J FD North Carolina Institute of Medicine SP 430 OP 432 DO 10.18043/ncm.77.6.430 VO 77 IS 6 A1 Bass, Tanya M. YR 2016 UL http://www.ncmedicaljournal.com/content/77/6/430.abstract AB Sexuality is inseparable from sexual health and can refer to sex, gender identities, orientation, pleasure, intimacy, expression, and reproduction. While each element of human sexuality is important, all of these components interconnect to make us complete sexual beings. Educators and other human service providers thus require professional preparation to ensure they can meet the needs of their learners, effectively manage programming, and successfully implement strategies that allow individuals to embrace or manage their sexual existence. An inclusive approach to sexual health is best to meet the sexual health needs of all women, while ensuring their agency and control of their own bodies.
