Eşitlik ilkesi ve bu ilkenin koruduğu hukuki menfaatin olumsuz ifadesi olan ayrımcılık yasağı, herkese eşit muamele yapılmasını, insanlar arasında ayrım yapılmamasını amaçlayan temel ilkelerdir. Demokratik toplumların temel yapı taşlarından biri olmakla birlikle, insan hakları hukukunun üzerine kurulduğu temel kavramlardır. Nitekim ulusal mevzuatlarda ve birçok uluslararası sözleşmede de düzenlenmiş ve uluslararası buyurucu kural haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışmanın konusunu, bu ilkeyle yasaklanan ayrımcılık temeli olarak cinsel yönelim oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada, heteroseksüellik dışındaki cinsel yönelimlere sahip insanların maruz kaldığı ayrımcılıkların Avrupa İnsan Hakları Mahkemesi ve Türk Anayasa Mahkemesince nasıl ele alındığı, Avrupa İnsan Hakları Sözleşmesi madde 14 ve Anayasa madde 10 bağlamında ele alınmıştır. Bu çerçevede mahkeme kararlarından karşılaştırmalı olarak örnek verilerek, bu ayrımcılık türünün Türk Anayasa Mahkemesince nasıl ele alınması gerektiği konusuna katkı sunmayı amaçlamaktadır.
