"Norway plans to liberalise its gender recognition system – allowing trans people to change their legal gender by filling out a simple form, and opening the process up to children.
At present, the country requires trans people to go through a number of convoluted steps to change their gender, requiring them to seek medical treatment, undergo psych evaluations and provide 'evidence' of their gender change."
