Japan court rules mandatory sterilisation of people officially changing gender unconstitutional
- Japan's Supreme Court rules that a law requiring transgender individuals to undergo surgery to change their gender is unconstitutional.
- The decision requires the government to revise the law, allowing transgender people to change their gender on official documents without surgery.
- While the verdict is seen as a victory for transgender rights, disappointment arises from the judges' request to deliberate on a separate clause related to the appearance of genital organs.
