Spanish lawmakers on Thursday passed a bill allowing transgeder people aged 14 and over to change their legal gender without the need for psychological or other medical evaluation though 14- to 16-year olds would still need parental or guardians' agreement.
In some other countries with similar laws, children under 18 still need parental approval. Scotland's parliament also approved on Thursday a bill making it easier for people to change their legal gender, including lowering the minimum age to 16 from 18.
