Abstract

Pravno priznanje spola je postopek, ki je za transspolne osebe velikega pomena. Kljub temu se za to pot mnogo transspolnih oseb ne odloči zaradi pogojev, ki jih postavljajo države. Ti pogoji predstavljajo poseg v telesno integriteto posameznika, saj je ta primoran prestati medicinske in operativne posege, ki jih sam ne želi. Nekateri medicinski posegi so takšne narave, da je njihova posledica sterilnost, kar posega v telesno integriteto posameznika. Transspolne osebe morejo tako izbirati med uresničevanjem svoje pravice do zasebnega življenja in pravice do telesne integritete. Organizacije, ki se borijo za enakopravnost in priznavanje človekovih pravic transspolnim osebam že dolgo opozarjajo, da taki pogoji kršijo človekove pravice in dostojanstvo. Problematiko je v svoje odločanje prejelo tudi Evropsko sodišče za človekove pravice v zadevi A.P., Garçon in Nicot proti Franciji. Odločba sodišča, da zahteva po sterilnosti krši človekove pravice, pomeni prelomnico za priznavanje človekovih pravic transspolnim osebam in je videna kot napredek v razumevanju transspolnosti. Kljub pozitivnemu vplivu odločbe na zakonodajo evropskih držav glede pogoja sterilnosti, med drugim tudi Belgije, so transspolne osebe še vedno žrtve stigmatizacije. Sodišče je namreč odločilo, da postavitev diagnoze duševne motnje transspolnim osebam ni kršitev njihovih pravic, prav tako ni kršitev zdravniški pregled, ki ga morajo prestati, da jim je lahko pravno priznan spol. Na teh področjih tako transspolnim osebam še ni zagotovljena enakopravnost in popolno uresničevanje človekovih pravic ter se tako nadaljuje stigma, da so duševno bolne. Nov korak naprej bi lahko pomenila nova klasifikacija transspolnosti kot motnje spolne identitete, in ne več kot duševne motnje.

Secondary title:	Legal gender recognition in light of tehe case A.P., Garçon and Nicot v. France
Secondary abstract:	Legal gender recognition is of great meaning for transgender people. Despite that, many transgender people don't choose that path because of the requirements countries set for that process. These requirements are infringing on a person's physical integrity, because the person is forced to undergo medical and operative procedures, which they do not want. Some medical procedures result in sterility, which violates physical integrity of that person. Transgender people are therefore forced to choose between fulfilment of their right to private life and their right to physical integrity. Organizations that fight for equality and recognition of human rights for transgender people have warned that these requirements infringe human rights and their dignity. The issue came before the European court of human rights in the case of A.P., Garçon and Nicot vs. France. The court's judgement that the sterility requirement violates human rights means a breaking point in recognizing human rights for transgender people and is seen as a step forward in understanding transgenderism. Despite a positive influence on the legislation of European countries regarding the sterility requirement, including Belgium, transgender people are still victims of stigma. The Court decided that the mental health diagnosis requirement is not a violation of human rights, as well as that the medical examination which a person has to undergo in order to get their gender legally recognized. On these issues there is still no equality and transgender people can't fully exercise their human rights which further promotes stigma that they are mentally ill. A new step forward could be the new classification of transgenderism as a condition related to sexual health, rather than a mental disorder.
