The one with the headscarf 🧕🏽

The ruling of the European Court of Justice yesterday is amazing news to non-binary people IMHO : The ruling clarifies that Member States must issue document matching the presented gender of citizens - it does at no place limit the definition of gender to male or female. Considering how barely any member state recognizes non-binary gender, this will be an amazing foundation to sue countries to provide them.

@braid The judgement, while awesome, is however unfortunately limited in its immediate scope to expats, but Curia has already made two other fantastic decisions into that direction recently (the SNCF mustn't ask for gender for ticket purchases one and the GDPR-rectification against national registers one), so I have no doubt what this court would decide when admissibly presented with a case concerning ... inpats (?)

@luap42 In any case, I agree, ECJ is the last bastion defending queer rights in Europe. I'm so glad we have them. And I'm so sad we need them.

@luap42 @braid Which happens to be the exact issue I had with the General Attorney‘s position.

@luap42 @braid Yes! Stop asking for gender altogether!

@braid And let me guess, it will be ignored in Hungary and Slovakia, just to cite randomly.

@braid I suspect that’ll take another judgement, based on the way that the UK high court twisted the law (or absence of any explicit wording therein) around this in Ryan Castellucci’s case
