Gender recognition

Gender recognition refers to the legal and social acknowledgment of an individual's self-identified gender. This involves allowing individuals to change their legal documents, like birth certificates and passports, to reflect their gender identity, whether it's male, female, or non-binary. The process may vary by country and often includes medical requirements or declarations. Gender recognition is important for personal dignity and rights, as it helps individuals feel accepted in society and protects them from discrimination based on their gender identity.
