#SelfId has been voted into law in Spain. The law includes the right to change your sex in the registry without any requisites like medical or psychological diagnosis, and without any treatment/surgery, name change nor time spent living as the other gender. #leytrans #translaw
The law includes the enforcement of affirmation care by health professionals, ie a counsellor, psychologist, psychiatrist or nurse must affirm all individuals gender identity by law and give the individual passage to medicalisation.
Additionally conversion therapy is banned and health care professionals can be de-regegistered or fined up to 150k if a patient feels their gender identity is questioned by them or they are misgendered.
