Japan's Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down a two-decade-old law that required transgender citizens to undergo sterilization surgery to change the gender they were assigned at birth.
Japan’s Supreme Court has ruled that a law requiring transgender individuals to undergo sterilization surgery to officially change their gender is unconstitutional on Wednesday.
