Chilean President Sebastián Piñera on Wednesday signed into law a bill that allows transgender people over 14 to legally change their name and gender without surgery. “We signed the Gender Identity Law because we strongly believe that everyone is born equal in dignity, rights and responsibilities and we should be the architects of our own lives and live them with liberty,” wrote Piñera in a tweet that included a picture of him signing the bill. “As such, we can move towards a humane and loving society that respects diversity. more.” The bill received final approval in Chile’s congress in September. The measure is expected to officially take effect next year. A trans rights bill had been before lawmakers in the South American country since 2013. Former Chilean President Michelle Bachelet, who is now the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, backed the measure and a bill that seeks to extend marriage rights to same-sex couples in the country. The Inter-American Court of Human Rights in January issued a landmark ruling that recognizes same-sex marriage and transgender rights in the Western Hemisphere. The trans rights bill that Piñera signed received renewed attention after “A Fantastic Woman,” a Chilean film that stars trans actress Daniela Vega, won the Oscar for best foreign language film in March. “We won,” said Asociación OTD Chile, a trans advocacy group, on Wednesday after Piñera signed the bill. https://www.washingtonblade.com/2018...gned-into-law/ :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup |

so basically normal people are being forced to admit unicorn spidermen exist and if a normal sane person says "wait a minute! you are just a normal dude and not a unicorn spiderman!" he would be in trouble with the law for using his brain and eyes...

It's obvious there are only 2 genders in actuality. That's just what it is.
However, if you are a man but feel like a woman (and vice versa), I accept that and support you. Though I won't personally view you as a real woman, I'll accept you for who you are and not come up with stupid unicorn Spiderman jokes or whatever this douche is doing that he'll deny. But... If you have a penis and go into the bathroom my daughter is in... I'm going to harm you. |
