Transsexuality in the Light of European Law
Transsexuality in the Light of European Law

Summary/Abstract: The topic subject of this research is a complex one, and involves not only legal discussions but also psychological, medical, social, and, last but not the least, moral discussions. With regards to the legal recognition of the identity of transsexuals in Romania, we mention that there are legal provisions stipulating the possibility of changing the mention of gender in the identity papers; instead, the category of transsexuals faces both with the absence of clear procedures as well as with lack of information and training specific to these procedures. Considering that the level of information on the topic of transgeneration is low at national level, we consider it appropriate to highlight the terms used for the legal recognition of the gender identity of transgender persons in Romania.
