Delphine Ravisé-Giard, president of the
ANT (Transgender National Organisation),
describes it as “the worst law voted in an
European country”.

Come on, France. Country of
Human’s Rights. What organisations
ask you ain’t much. Even wore, it’ll
make your job easier - judges surely
have better to do than changement
of letters and names on passport. It
won’t cost you anything: the person
would pay all the way to the re-
impression of their papers. What
does that change for you? Don’t you
think there’s more important in your
law “Justice in the 21st century”?
Think about all the youngsters killing
themselves. Think of all the people
losing their jobs or not finding
another one. Think of all the people
who don’t have enough money,
enough time, enough strength.
Think of the people who can’t even
go to the post office for a parcel
without being questioned on their
intimacy. Think of the HALDE, of the
European Commission of Human
Rights, think of the UN, of Amnesty
International, of Inter LGBT+ and all
those organisations and people
knocking on your door, underlining
your stupidity. Think even further,
and move yourself for the rights of
trans people and of intersex people,
who are also mainly concerned by
this law.
Don’t you think that’s it, the
“Justice of the 21st century”?
