In the Netherlands, trans rights advocates are celebrating a major win in that western European nation with the passage of a Gender Identity Law that does not require sterilization, court orders or genital surgery as prerequisites to change gender markers on documentation.

It passed with a lopsided 51-24 vote of Dutch lawmakers in The Hague on Tuesday, and when the new law takes effect July 1, Dutch citizens aged 16 and older will only require a statement from an expert attesting to the trans person's desire to do so to match their gender identity.

 all first world countries should pass that kind of laws...

ty the netherlands , hope others will follow, especially the country im living in , though i doubt it...

This is most pleasing news... Hopefully America, UK, BC... Heck the globe can follow this model.

UK already has this since about 2006.  Although I think it a retrograde step

Rose! Haven't seen you in awhile. Hugs, Devlyn
