Senators The Republicans announced Thursday the creation of a “working group on the trans-identification of minors”, which will focus on “the growing increase in sex change requests in children and especially adolescents.
Composed of 18 senators LR, this working group will be led by the senator of Val-d’Oise Jacqueline Eustache-Brinio and will begin its work on May 31.
An “evolution of the legislative framework” to come?
“While the influence of social networks gives new visibility to ‘gender dysphoria’, or the feeling of being born in the ‘wrong body’, it seems legitimate for the subject to be carefully considered by the legislator”, indicates the LR group in a press release.
The working group “will hear many experts” (doctors, associations, lawyers, international experts) “before considering a possible change in the legislative framework concerning minors”, he specifies.
During the examination in the Senate in December 2021 of a bill from the presidential majority to clearly ban pseudo “conversion therapies”, practices aimed at imposing heterosexuality on lesbian, gay, bi and trans (LGBT) people , Eustache-Brinio had proposed, without success, to prohibit puberty blocking treatments, hormone therapies and surgical operations before the age of 18.
