The Sexual Freedom resolution was one of the first strong Human Rights resolutions adopted by the United Nations. It reached the UN floor at a time when few nations had joined the international organization, and despite having been adopted by a large percentage of votes, the vote margin in votes cast is typical of the difference seen in the outcomes of current resolutions. After three attempts to repeal the resolution, it was struck out and declared null and void in April 2007, having been replaced by Sexual Privacy Act.
