Legally recognise non-binary gender identities

Closed 6,886 signatures

What the petition asks

Multiple countries legally recognize non-binary or third gender classifications. They are available to people with gender identities that differ from their sex assigned at birth. It’s important we support our lgbt community.

Sourced from wikipedia
Some non-western societies have long recognized transgender and/or non-binary people as a third gender, though this may not (or may only recently)[4] include formal legal recognition
