Equality & Non-discrimination

Sexual Orientation

Does your constituition (or equivalent) includes provisions banning or limiting discrimination based on sexual orientation? Yes. They are foundational, included in our equivalent to the American Bill of Rights.
Does your country have employment laws that prevent discrimination based of sexual orientation? Not as such, because that's covered by the constitution and our core values as a people; we just don't find it necessary. Our culture does not generally and our government specifically does not involve itself in the romantic escapades of our people; we only began formally recognizing marriages as a consequence of joining the WA and to accommodate out out-of town visitors. Who you flirt with, screw, marry or procreate with is between you and the other person(s) involved, and possibly your families.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of sexual orientation? Not as such, because that's covered by the constitution and our core values as a people; we just don't find it necessary.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper education regardless of sexual orientation? Our country, government, and culture are inseparable from our educational system. A proper education is required of everyone. Like, seriously; one cannot be a full citizen or even be considered an emancipated adult in Sadakoyama without completing a rigorous and strict high school examination, which includes not only academic achievement but a doctor and a psychologist certifying the individual meets physical, emotional, and psychological maturity benchmarks. This is all done under the aegis of the Department of Education. This has occurred for some as young as twelve but is commonly accomplished between 14-16. Gender identity, genitalia, and sexual preferences do not factor into this determination.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper healthcare regardless of sexual orientation? Not as such, because our healthcare system is fully socialized, and access to such is part of our constitutional protections.
Is your country's human rights institution or equality body (if they exist at all) mandated to provide rights and protection to all sexual orientations , or is it systematically working on this regardless of a mandate? We don't have one, because the values such a body would safeguard are already deeply woven into our culture and constitution.
Does your government operate an active policy of improving human rights, protection and equality explicitly to all sexual orientation? Yes, for our people. The barbarians in other nations can sort themselves out.

Gender Identity

Does your constitution (or equivalent) includes provisions banning or limiting discrimination based on gender identity? Yes. They are foundational, included in our equivalent to the American Bill of Rights. Culturally, overall the concept of gender does not have a great deal of influence; in dress, occupation, sex, etc... although in some areas such as Marsei or Goliad it may a little more. No one will usually be very interested in one's 'gender identity' unless they want to get more intimate than just casual sex; and even then it's really no more meaningful that hair or eye color.
Does your country have employment laws that prevent discrimination based of gender identity? Not as such, because that's covered by the constitution and our core values as a people; we just don't find it necessary.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of gender identity? Not as such, because that's covered by the constitution and our core values as a people; we just don't find it necessary.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper education regardless of gender identity? Our country, government, and culture are inseparable from our educational system. A proper education is required of everyone.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper healthcare regardless of gender identity? Not as such, because our healthcare system is fully socialized, and access to such is part of our constitutional protections.
Is your country's human rights institution or equality body (if they exist at all) mandated to provide rights and protection to all gender identities , or is it systematically working on this regardless of a mandate? We don't have one, because the values such a body would safeguard are already deeply woven into our culture and constitution.
Does your government operate an active policy of improving human rights, protection and equality explicitly to all gender identities? Yes, for our people. The barbarians in other nations can sort themselves out.


Sex Characteristics

Does your constitution (or equivalent) includes provisions banning or limiting discrimination based on sexual characteristic? Yes. They are foundational, included in our equivalent to the American Bill of Rights. The only people that will care about what's in your pants will be those interested in getting in them for happy fun times. And even then, it might not be all that important.
Does your country have employment laws that prevent discrimination based of sexual characteristic? Not as such, because that's covered by the constitution and our core values as a people; we just don't find it necessary. Unless your genitalia are directly involved in your occupation they are irrelevant. And sometimes even then; one of our top gay porn stars is an unreassigned trans man.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of sexual characteristic? Not as such, because that's covered by the constitution and our core values as a people; we just don't find it necessary.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper education regardless of sexual characteristic? Our country, government, and culture are inseparable from our educational system. A proper education is required of everyone.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper healthcare regardless of sexual characteristic? Not as such, because our healthcare system is fully socialized, and access to such is part of our constitutional protections.
Is your country's human rights institution or equality body (if they exist at all) mandated to provide rights and protection to all sexual characteristic , or is it systematically working on this regardless of a mandate? We don't have one, because the values such a body would safeguard are already deeply woven into our culture and constitution.
Does your government operate an active policy of improving human rights, protection and equality explicitly to all sexual characteristic? Yes, for our people. The barbarians in other nations can sort themselves out.


Gender Expression

Does your country law holds provisions to guarantee the right of gender expression? The right to gender expression is not specifically encoded in law; it is clearly implied by the broad rights granted by our constitution and taken for granted by our society and culture. Gender expression is up to the individual.

General

May LGBT+ people donate blood (or any kind of bodily tissue) equally as heterosexual people in your nation? Yes.

Family

Can same-sex couples marry with the same rights as different-sex couples in your nation? The government of Sadakoyama does not involve itself in the romantic affairs or religious beliefs of its citizens. There are no tax implications to pair bonding and healthcare is fully socialized. Any commitments people make to each other is the business of themselves, their karass ("extended family"), potential partners, and their friends.
Can same-sex couples enter into a civil partnership with the same rights as different-sex couples in your nation? We make no distinction between 'marriage' and 'civil partnerships'. Neither term or concept has any weight in the law or culture of Sadakoyama.
Can same-sex couples in your country enter into a civil partnership with weaker rights as married different-sex couples? No, because there's no distinction and neither is legally meaningful.
Does your constitution or law limits marriage to a single kind of couple, like man and woman? Neither our constitution nor our laws limit or even define marriage in any way. Doesn't even mention it.
Can same-sex couples legally apply for joint adoption? Yes.
Can same-sex couples legally apply for second parent adoption? Yes.
Can couples from all sexual orientations, gender identities and sexual characteristics be recognized as the parents of their children after birth or adoption? Of course.
Can couples, regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity, receive fertility treatment including artificial insemination? Yes.
Can individuals, regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity, receive fertility treatment including artificial insemination? Yes.
Can transgender people marry based on their gender identity after their legal gender recognition, thus entering a different-sex marriage? There's a lot to unpack here; first, there's no such thing as 'legal gender recognition' because the government doesn't care about your gender identity. Second, as has been mentioned, marriage is your business.
Are transgender parents recognised on birth certificates, documents, etc...? Parents- biological, adoptive, or otherwise- are recognized as determined by the people involved and sometime their karass. Gender identity, expression, and genitalia are irrelevant.

Hate Crime and Hate Speech

Sexual Orientation

Is sexual orientation especifically defended in hate crime legislation? We don't make such a distinction. Hurting someone is hurting someone.
Is sexual orientation especifically defended in hate speech legislation? We don't have any because they are not needed. A long time ago we killed or drove out our racists, bigots, religious fanatics, and wealth hoarders. Since then we have been very selective of who we allow to join us, including our own; on the rare sad day when one of our children choose to embrace the regressive values of the barbarian nations they are expelled.
Is sexual orientation especifically included in government strategies to counter hate crime and hate speech? 'Crime' as the barbarian countries understand it is virtually unknown in Sadakoyama. Besides our pervasive and ubiquitous educational system that instills pro-social values from early childhood and never really stops throughout our citizen's lives, Sadakoyama has extensive psychological and counseling services available as part of its free health care system. Therapy sessions are part of nearly every person's life at some point. Our people are so well-behaved we don't have "law enforcement" agencies; we police ourselves. We are too educated to be so reductive of each other; 'hate crimes' and 'hate speech' simply don't exist here. If someone hates you, it's not because of the categories into which you may or may not be grouped, but because of you as a person and your behaviour.

Is gender identity especifically defended in hate speech legislation? As above

Is intersex status especifically defended in hate crime legislation? As above

Is there a legal procedure for recognising a person's gender based on their own gender identity? No, because there is no significance attached to gender under the law. How you choose to present yourself with regard to gender is your own business.

Civil Society Space

Can LGBT+ people assemble freely without obstruction from government or nonstate groups? Yes. Any obstruction they encounter will not be for that reason
Are LGBT+ demonstrations and events adequately protected? If they occur, they would be as safe as any other event. I'm not aware of any such events specifically formulated on that basis alone.
Are there any laws that prevent LGBT+ rights associations (NGO's or similar organizations) from acting? No. I don't know if there are any.
Are there any laws that prevent LGBT+ rights associations (NGO's or similar organizations) from receiving funds? No.
Are LGBT+ human rights defenders arrested, harassed or harmed in your nation? Not for that reason.
Can they do their work without interference from the State? As long as whatever their 'work' entails is otherwise legal, sure.
Are there laws limiting freedom of expression of LGBT+ rights activists and organizations (anti-gay propaganda, censorship laws)? No.

Asylum

Sexual Orientation

Is persecution because of sexual orientation a qualifiable cause for asylum request in your country? We don't offer 'asylum' to any outsiders, for any reason. We are not interested in 'saving the world'. Entry into Sadakhan citizenship and culture is by invitation only (extended on our initiative or after a comprehensive assessment application) and is subject to the same rigorous evaluation our citizens must endure. Gender identity, genitalia, or who one chooses to screw is not part of that evaluation.
Is sexual orientation especifically included in positive government policy or instructions promoting asylum? As they don't exist; no.

Gender Identity

Is persecution because of gender identity a qualifiable cause for asylum request in your country? As above
Is gender identity especifically included in positive government policy or instructions promoting asylum? As they don't exist; no.

Canada is considered one of the most gay-friendly countries in the world, in fact, being ranked number one on the Gay Travel Index chart ever since 2018, with its largest cities featuring their own gay areas and communities. Since 1982, the Constitution of Canada has guaranteed fundamental human rights to the LGBT community, as the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which applies to all legal instruments, "shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the preservation and enhancement of the multicultural heritage of Canadians". Every summer, Canada's LGBT community celebrates gay pride in all major cities, with many political figures from the federal, provincial and municipal scenes.
