Скачать или смотреть Kerala High Court Landmark Judgment On Sex Determination II Ambiguous Genitalia

According to the Yale School of Medicine, 'sex' refers to biological attributes linked to reproductive anatomy and chromosomes, while 'gender' encompasses societal and cultural constructs, including roles, behaviors, expectations, and identities . Recently, the Kerala High Court reaffirmed this distinction, underlining that 'sex' is rooted in biology, whereas 'gender' is a broader concept shaped by society.
On August 9th, Justice V.G. Arun, a single-judge bench, tackled a case brought forward by parents of a child with ambiguous genitalia. The parents sought permission to conduct genital reconstructive surgery to raise their child as female. This case emerged from the diagnosis of 'Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia,' a rare medical condition causing ambiguous genitalia.
