Gender Freedom Law
A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.
Category: Human Rights
Strength: Strong
Proposed by: Agnostic Deeishpeople
Description:
Description: We, the United Nations, recognize the basic human rights of all individuals. This resolution seeks to reduce Gender Identity/Expression Discrimination in order to give transgender people and others their chance to live dignified lives.
Believing that human right is rooted in the belief of human dignity; everyone deserves to be treated with dignity regardless of their gender identity and/or expression.
Defining Gender Identity as a person’s innate sense of self -sex; gender expression is the external presentation of a person’s gender.
Noting that Gender Identity/Expression Discrimination affect not only transgender individuals.
Recognizes that Gender Dysphoria, also known as Gender Identity Disorder, is a recognized psychological condition that can be diagnosed by Mental Health Professionals
Convinced than people who are diagnosed with Gender Dysphoria should have the right to seek for different types of treatment with the approval of a mental health professional.
Deeply disturbed that Gender Identity or Expression discrimination has taken and destroyed many lives.
Be it resolved that that the following articles be recognized by the United Nations.
Article 1: Everyone has the legal right to express their genders freely without unreasonable interference from the state.
Article 2:
1.) Gender Identity and/or Expression alone are not grounds for any form of discrimination in the work place unless such identity/expression are clearly proven to preclude satisfactory performance of required duties; Discrimination includes, but is not limited to, unequal treatment in hiring, training, promotion and termination, be the source from other employees or employer(s).
2) Declares that this Article does not apply to:
A.) Situations where Employers wish to establish sex specific dress codes or bathrooms at work.
B.) Religious Institutions. (Except in their For-Profit activities)
C.) Non-Profit organizations. (Except in U.N countries where For-Profit organizations do not exist or are an anomaly)
Article 3:
A.) The U.N is neutral on the subject of sex reassignment treatments; however, sex reassignment treatments must be legal options available to people diagnosed with Gender Dysphoria by mental health professionals.
B.) U.N countries reserve the right to determine the source of funding for sex reassignment treatments.
C.) Health insurance companies do not have to include coverage for sex reassignment treatments but must not discriminate people simply because of their gender identity and/or expression.
D.)Gender identity and/or Expression alone are not justifiable grounds for hospitals and health care providers to refuse appropriate medical treatments to patients whose lives are at immediate risk.
Article 4: Any person who had undergone a Sex Reassignment Surgery must be allowed to change his or her legal sex. The issue of whether to grant non post-operative transsexuals or others the right to change their legal sex will be for individual nation to decide.
Article 5:
Urges:
A.) Member nations to consider putting pre operative transsexuals inmates
in isolated cells if their personal safety are in danger.
B.) Member nations to accommodate gender diversity if they haven’t already.
Article 6: If any member nation has rights and protections that go beyond those enlisted in this resolution, the Gender Freedom Law will not remove them.
I urge all the U.N delegate to support this proposal.
