The Surgeon General's Call to Action to Promote Sexual Health and Responsible Sexual Behavior (SGCTA) was released in July, 2001. The SGCTA highlighted serious sexual health challenges facing Americans, emphasizing high rates of unintended pregnancy, abortion, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), sexual abuse, and sexual assault. The SGCTA contains many recommendations and guidelines to promote sexual health. The current study examined ways that university students agree and/or disagree with the SGCTA. In a content analysis of 87 student responses collected in 2001 and 95 student responses collected in 2011 to an open ended question, seven agreement and three disagreement themes emerged. A majority, 82% of 2001 students' statements and 81% of 2011 students' statements were agreements to the SGCTA. Findings are discussed with respect to a sexual rights approach to sexual health.
