The government will not allow a 2-year-old boy to be registered as the legitimate son of a gender identity disorder patient whose legally registered sex was changed to male and whose wife gave birth to the child via artificial insemination from her brother-in-law, Justice Minister Toshio Ogawa said Friday.
The same day, Tokyo's Shinjuku Ward said told the GID patient seeking recognition as the boy's legitimate father that the child would be registered as being "born out of wedlock."
