Greece Passes Law Easing Legal Gender Change; Greek Orthodox Church in Fury,Calls It Immoral

The Greek Orthodox Church is in uproar over a new law passed by Greece's parliament yesterday that will increase the ease with which individuals can change their legally recognized gender, the Christian Today website reports today (October 11, 2017).


The law will allow people to change their gender on official documents with a court ruling, and without requiring medical tests or sterilization.


Until now, anyone needing to officially change their gender had to be diagnosed with a "gender identity disorder" and have their reproductive organs removed.


The law has been condemned as "immoral" by the Greek Orthodox Church and as a "monstrosity" by right-wing politicians.
