In a commentary, SMU Assistant Professor of Political Science Eduard Jordaan shared about the draft resolution tabled by South Africa during the March 2011 session of the United Nations (UN) Human Rights Council to define sexual orientation and to clarify the relationship of this term to international human rights law. He felt that the aim of the resolution was sinister, as it serves to prevent the discussion of anything to do with sexual orientation throughout the UN until the term "sexual orientation" had been defined.
