Divorcees target gender disorder law Two people who have undergone sex change operations to become women will file requests with family courts in Nara and Hyogo prefectures to change their gender registrations, it was revealed Oct. 28. Both were married while they were still male and are now divorced. Their requests to the courts are likely to stir debate over revising the 2004 law allowing people with gender identity disorder to change their sex registrations. The law allows people with the disorder, known by its acronym GID, to change their sex registration only if they have not married and have not had children. Both have been married and have children.
