Sweden wants to lower age limit for gender change

The liberal coalition in Germany wants to make it easier for people to change their gender legally. Therefore, it presented a new bill.

Several European countries have implemented laws to simplify legal gender change in the past years. Mostly, this happened without much debate. Women play the most critical role in the resistance.

The gender self-determination law and the reform of the abortion law are a thorn in the flesh of the Federation of Evangelical Religious Entities (FEREDE). They severely criticised the new regulations which the government recently accepted. “These legislative initiatives could violate the rights to religious freedom and freedom of conscience.”
