"Words Not To Be Used in Public," courtesy of the UN

Susan Yoshihara, Executive Vice President of CFAM, tells us of the latest attempt to marginalize countries with traditional values. UNESCO has released a document telling UN member states what words they must never say.

UNESCO Attempts to Sneak Rejected Rights into UN Documents
By Samantha Singson

(NEW YORK — C-FAM) In a recently published UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) document on guidelines to discuss HIV/AIDS in UN publications, the organization attempts to use a backdoor approach to promote controversial new rights that have been explicitly rejected by UN member states, and calls those who do not promote the agenda “derogatory” and “discriminatory.” In particular, the UNESCO document uses a failed 2003 UN resolution to usher in the highly controversial term “sexual orientation” as part of UN human rights language.

Entitled “UNESCO Guidelines on Language and Content in HIV- and AIDS- Related Materials,” the organization launched the document with an aim to “provide guidance towards using uniform, correct, gender-sensitive, non-discriminatory and culturally-appropriate language that promotes universal human rights,” and to rid UN discourse of “problematic terminology.” “Risky sex,” “promiscuous” and “prostitute” are discriminatory according to UNESCO, and should be replaced with “unprotected sex,” “having multiple partners” and “commercial sex worker”....
I have no doubts that these people are truly demented...unless, of course, they are completely without any functioning gray matter...The UN, with abysmal yet neverending attempts at elitist rule and dominion over all of mankind, needs to go!
