TELI: "It is our belief that strategic litigation is a very important tool in the advancement of trans rights, and this will be at the forefront of our efforts as we explore the various issues facing the trans community."
This is very true for Austria, it seems. I just read up and, apparently, in 2009 the Austrian state lost its case against a transwoman who insisted on a sex change in the documents without sex reassignment surgery. Since that time, in Austria, women can have penises.
And this year an intersex person won the right from the state to a third sex in the passport, and first thing after this sentence was some lawyers in newspapers arguing, that this should mean self ID for anyone now.
The state apparently so far has dug in its heels, demanding that a psychiatrist diagnoses that there is a consistent compulsive delusion that one is the other sex and that this disorder be irreversible. Transactivists are not happy, as this depicts people who want a sex change as psychologically unwell.
