В Перу трансгендеров официально признали больными людьми

The Peruvian government has officially classified transgender, non-binary, and intersex individuals as mentally ill, according to a recent report by The New York Post. This decision has sparked outrage and concern among the LGBTQ+ community and human rights activists.

The new classification, which was announced by Peru’s Ministry of Health, labels these individuals as having “gender identity disorders” and places them under the category of “mental and behavioral disorders” in the country’s official diagnostic manual. This means that they will be treated as patients with mental illnesses and may face discrimination and stigmatization in society.

This move by the Peruvian government is a major setback for the rights and recognition of the transgender, non-binary, and intersex community. It not only goes against international standards and human rights principles, but it also perpetuates harmful stereotypes and reinforces the idea that being transgender or non-binary is a mental disorder.

The decision has been met with widespread criticism from LGBTQ+ organizations and activists, who have condemned it as a violation of human rights. They argue that being transgender, non-binary, or intersex is not a mental illness, but a natural and valid expression of one’s gender identity. They also point out that this classification will only further marginalize and harm an already vulnerable community.

This is not the first time that Peru’s government has faced backlash for its treatment of the LGBTQ+ community. In 2017, the country’s Congress rejected a bill that would have allowed transgender individuals to legally change their gender without undergoing surgery. And in 2019, a transgender woman was brutally murdered, sparking protests and calls for justice.

The Peruvian government’s decision to classify transgender, non-binary, and intersex individuals as mentally ill is not only discriminatory, but it also goes against scientific evidence. The World Health Organization removed “gender identity disorder” from its list of mental illnesses in 2019, recognizing that being transgender is not a disorder, but a natural variation of human diversity.

Furthermore, this classification ignores the fact that many transgender, non-binary, and intersex individuals face mental health issues due to societal discrimination and lack of acceptance. By labeling them as mentally ill, the government is further stigmatizing and invalidating their experiences.

The Peruvian government must reverse this decision and take steps to protect the rights and dignity of the transgender, non-binary, and intersex community. This includes recognizing their gender identity and providing them with equal access to healthcare, education, and employment opportunities.

In the face of this setback, it is important to remember that being transgender, non-binary, or intersex is not a mental illness, but a valid and beautiful expression of one’s identity. The LGBTQ+ community in Peru and around the world deserves respect, acceptance, and equal rights. We must stand in solidarity with them and continue to fight for their rights and recognition.

In conclusion, the Peruvian government’s decision to classify transgender, non-binary, and intersex individuals as mentally ill is a step in the wrong direction. It not only goes against international standards and human rights principles, but it also perpetuates harmful stereotypes and further marginalizes an already vulnerable community. We must continue to raise our voices and demand that the government recognizes and respects the rights of all individuals, regardless of their gender identity. Let us stand together and create a world where everyone is accepted and celebrated for who they are.
