in World News Orbán’s Hungary Enshrines Biological Reality in Constitution, People Are Either a ‘Man or a Woman’
by Kurt Zindulka
The government of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in Hungary officially recognised the scientific fact that there are only two genders in the nation’s constitution.
The 15th amendment to the Hungarian constitution was overwhelmingly ratified by Budapest’s Országgyűlés parliament this week by a margin of 140 votes in favour to 21 votes against, Magyarnemzet reported.
In a bid to prevent the spread of far-left ideologies surrounding gender, the amendment added to the Basic Law stated that a person is “either man or woman”.
Cementing the government’s ability to prohibit lewd LGBT public demonstrations such as Pride Parades, the amendment also said that the “protection of children precedes the right of assembly” and gave police new powers to shut down such events, which the government banned last month.
The clause in the Constitution protecting physical, mental, and moral development will now take precedence over all other fundamental rights, with the exception of the right to life.
The 15th Amendment will also impact other areas of civil society, for instance, enshrining the right for Hungarians to pay for goods and services with cash money.
