We are all entitled to human rights. These include the right to live free from violence and discrimination; to enjoy the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health; to be educated; to own property; to vote; and to earn a livable wage. It is our belief that everyone should be able to make decisions about their own body. Every human has sexual and reproductive rights . This means they are entitled to equal access to health services like contraception and safe abortions, to choose if, when, and who they marry, and to decide if they want to have children and if so how many, when and with who. Humans should be able to live without fear of gender-based violence, including rape and other sexual violence, genital mutilation, forced marriage, forced pregnancy, forced abortion, forced sterilization, sexual harassment, and sexual violence. Sexual harassment means any unwelcome sexual behaviour. This could be physical conduct and advances, demanding or requesting sexual favours or using inappropriate sexual language. Sexual violence is when someone is physically sexually assaulted.
Awaken the North believes it is ultimately the choice of each Heathen should they find themselves pregnant to make the choice they deem appropriate in their given situation. We hold that it is a religious right to make this choice, and should not be removed by any governmental agency, whether at a state or federal level.
