LGBT rights in Portugal : ウィキペディア英語版 | LGBT rights in Portugal
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights in Portugal have improved substantially in the past decade and are now among the best in the world. After a long period of oppression during the Salazar dictatorship, Portuguese society has become increasingly accepting of homosexuality,〔Mark Ellingham, John Fisher, Graham Kenyon: The rough guide to Portugal, Rough Guides, 2002, ISBN 9781858288772, p. 49.〕 which was decriminalized in 1982,〔 (PortugalPride.org )〕 eight years after the Carnation Revolution. Portugal has wide-ranging anti-discrimination laws and is one of the few countries in the world to contain a ban on discrimination based on sexual orientation in its Constitution. Since 5 June 2010, the state became the eighth in the world to recognize same-sex marriage.〔 (Lei n.° 9/2010 de 31 de Maio Permite o casamento civil entre pessoas do mesmo sexo )〕〔 (Segunda-feira já vai ser possível celebrar casamentos entre pessoas do mesmo sexo )〕〔(Portugal becomes the sixth country in Europe to legalise gay marriage ), Kate Loveys, ''Daily Mail'', 18 May 2010〕〔(Portugal's president to ratify same-sex marriage law ), ''BBC News'', 17 May 2010〕 On 1 March 2011 the President ratified the Law of Gender Identity, said to be the most advanced in the world, which simplifies the process of sex and name change for transgender people.〔 (Statement of the Presidency of the Republic on the bill referring to sex change in civil registries )〕〔(Cavaco Silva ratifies the bill referring to sex change in civil registries )〕 Since 20 November 2015, a bill passed the Portugal Parliament that allows IVF access for lesbians and adoption by same-sex couples. The bills now await promulgation from the President. ==Law regarding same-sex sexual activity==
Same-sex sexual activity was first decriminalised in 1852, but it was made a crime again in 1886, and Portugal gradually became more oppressive of homosexuals until and throughout the dictatorship years.〔 (O Estado Novo dizia que não havia homossexuais, mas perseguia-os )〕 It wasn't until 1982 that same-sex sexual activity was decriminalised again, and the age of consent was equalized with different-sex activity at 14 years of age in 2007.
