[Emotional life and sexuality, the institution as their guarantor]. / Vie affective et sexualité, l'institution intimée.

An individual's emotional and/or sex life all too often remains taboo in social and medical-social facilities. However, institutions must to a certain extent be its guarantor, as intimated by the user's intimacy. In this context, it is important to consider the cardinal principal of the person's consent, which is a prerequisite and necessary condition of emotional and/or sexual relations.
