trans | Swedish Sterilisation law (Reply)

In Sweden just now there is a kind of war on going against the government, Its a right wing coalition and a small section is blocking the change of a law, that in it's day was a step forward, however is now outdated. The law in Sweden DEMANDS all trans* people destroy genetic material in Sweden (so trans* people cant have kids) and have a surgical procedure to ensure sterility just to get one digit changed from a odd number to an even one... (like a National Identification Number or National Insurance number yyyymmdd****) The number signifies the legal gender of a person.

I was at a protest a while ago and thought you may like to hear about it, and the campaign

Warren's Speech against the inhumane and illegal laws on forced sterilisation in Sweden was rather amazing, i have a LOT of respect for him.. This video is not safe for work however the text is. - Juts in case people may be offended or accidentally click on it, I have opted to put the link behind a LJ Cut.

Also there is a petition that you may wish to sign should you choose to do so. and a link to a Facebook protest in London.

If you choose to sign the petition Thank You.
