Do you agree? Hungary’s Parliament approved a reform that has shaken Europe.
With the backing of Viktor Orbán, the Constitution now recognizes only two biological sexes: male and female. The government says the change is a “clarification that laws are based on biological reality,” reinforcing its traditional family model.
The measure, passed with 140 votes in 2025, bans public LGBTQ+ events and the use of content about diversity in schools.
While opposition lawmakers protested with horns inside the chamber, activists described the law as “pure propaganda” aimed at excluding minorities. Hungary is tightening control by prioritizing its vision of protecting children above other rights.
