- W2992029804 abstract "AbstractThis Comment discusses the influence of international legal norm development on the advancement of sexual rights. Case studies of Argentina and Brazil demonstrate that progress in this area of human rights law has been outward-looking: the countries that are most progressive in terms of sexual rights are at once substantially influenced by and seeking to actively influence the development of international legal norms. To demonstrate this outward-looking character, this Comment analyzes nongovernmental organization activity, legislative enactments, judicial opinions, and proposed resolutions in international and regional governmental bodies in both Argentina and Brazil. It then argues that sexual rights development in these two countries is a manifestation of the significant impact that international law has had upon this area of human rights law. Ultimately, this Comment suggests that international law can provide a means to progress sexual rights in countries that have not yet recognized them to the same degree as Argentina and Brazil.Table of ContentsI.

IntroductionIn the past twenty years, concern with discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation has gained sufficient recognition worldwide such that it is realistic to say that this issue [has] come onto the international human rights agenda.1 Two countries in particular, Argentina and Brazil, have been at the forefront of this change, the former substantially influenced by, and the latter substantially influencing, the developing international legal norm recognizing sexual rights. Despite academic commentary implying the contrary, these two countries not only illustrate the importance of international law in efforts to advance sexual rights, but also suggest the promise that international law offers to eradicate sexual discrimination globally.In July 2010, Argentina became the first country in Latin America, and only the tenth in the world, to authorize same-sex marriage.2 Argentina's President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner sponsored the marriage law, promoting it as a manifestation of the increasingly liberal and less discriminatory social atmosphere of the country.3 The same-sex marriage bill, however, only narrowly passed in the Senate of the Argentine National Congress (" @default.
