Forced sterilization & unwarranted psychiatric evaluations of #trans people violate human rights & are not efficient safeguards against violence.
They are cruel.
I welcome #Finland’s law on legal gender recognition through self-determination. #translaki

please boost this! under pressure from the right, #Lithuania had imposed a 'warning label' on a children's book depicting same-sex relationships. #ECtHR finds the label violated the author's *and children's* rights to freedom of expression. MAJOR VICTORY! twitter.com/article19law/s…
