In the debate on identity politics, a significant issue has emerged regarding the regulation of legal gender identity, sparking contentious discussions and potential policy shifts.

Professor Emeritus Torbjörn Tännsjö argues for a radical solution to dissolve the complex disputes surrounding gender identity: the cessation of public gender registration by the state.

He highlights the biological and social complexities of gender, advocating for a society that does not enforce binary gender classifications, thereby avoiding legislative conflicts over gender identity.

Tännsjö suggests that non-involvement by the state in citizens' gender could lead to more individualized communities and approaches to gender-specific issues in healthcare, public facilities, and sports, ultimately proposing a reevaluation of how society perceives and legislates gender.
