Sexual Relations from an Islamic Perspective

I have reviewed some studies calling for granting rights to homosexuals in Muslim societies and changing some laws that prohibit abortion as well as sexual relations outside marriage under different names, such as sex education and reproductive health. I have also noticed the use of certain terms, such as "intimate partner" instead of husband and "sexual intercourse outside marriage." What is the ruling of Sharia on this?
