Sweden makes it easier for young people to legally change their gender

In Sweden, lawmakers have recently voted to change the country's legal gender recognition law.

The new legislation allows individuals as young as 16 years old to legally change their gender identity with parental consent. Those over 18 do not need approval from a guardian, a doctor and the National Board of Health and Welfare.

Additionally, the new law removes the requirement for medical or psychological evaluation for gender recognition, making the process simpler and more accessible.  A gender dysphoria diagnosis is no longer required.

Supporters of the law argue that it is a step forward in recognizing and respecting the rights of transgender and non-binary individuals.

The law gained support from most of the parties, including the conservatives and the liberals. The Christian Democrats and the right wing populist Sweden Democrats opposed the bill.

a new bill was passed today in sweden that will make living as a trans person much easier! :D

with this bill it's now possible for 16 year olds to change their legal gender, and you will not need a gender dysphoria diagnosis to do it! you'll also be able to get corrective surgeries at 18 y/o!

extremely happy that the bill passed despite fearmongering in media and from TERFS.
