REALIZING that a person's gender identity is determined by the person, not assigned by others,
NOTING that the legal term "sex" is not synonymous with the more commonly used "gender",
DEFINING gender identity as the social and cultural identity a person holds, usually either male or female, but not always,
BELIEVING that because gender identity is not legally determined, people should have the right to decide their own gender identity,
FURTHER BELIEVING that people should not be discriminated on the basis of gender identity,
MANDATES that WA member nations shall not interfere with any citizen's choice of gender identity, nor discriminate on basis of gender identity.
