Equality & Non-discrimination

Sexual Orientation

Does your constituition (or equivalent) includes provisions banning or limiting discrimination based on sexual orientation? No. The Tinhamptonian Constitution does not explicitly prohibit discrimination on any grounds.
Does your country have employment laws that prevent discrimination based of sexual orientation? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of sexual orientation? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper education regardless of sexual orientation? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper healthcare regardless of sexual orientation? Yes.
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? Yes, the latter.
Does your government operate an active policy of improving human rights, protection and equality explicitly to all sexual orientation? On a technicality. EXPLAINED: Although those in some intersectional feminist circles have identified many more sexual orientations, Tinhampton's Government is only committed (and has repeatedly done so) to "protecting all in society... [no matter] who you are, or who you are in love with."

Gender Identity

Does your constituition (or equivalent) includes provisions banning or limiting discrimination based on gender identity? No, see first question in this survey.
Does your country have employment laws that prevent discrimination based of gender identity? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of gender identity? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper education regardless of gender identity? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper healthcare regardless of gender identity? Yes.
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? Yes, the latter.
Does your government operate an active policy of improving human rights, protection and equality explicitly to all gender identities? Yes, by deduction, see above.

Sex Characteristics

Does your constituition (or equivalent) includes provisions banning or limiting discrimination based on sexual characteristic? No, see first question in this survey, although pushes for such a clause failed at the ballot box in 1975, 1981, 2003 and again in 2007.
Does your country have employment laws that prevent discrimination based of sexual characteristic? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of sexual characteristic? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper education regardless of sexual characteristic? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper healthcare regardless of sexual characteristic? Yes.
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? Yes, the latter.
Does your government operate an active policy of improving human rights, protection and equality explicitly to all sexual characteristic? Yes.

Gender Expression

Does your country law holds provisions to guarantee the right of gender expression? Yes, more than likely, if this question's been worded properly.

General

May LGBT+ people donate blood (or any kind of bodily tissue) equally as heterossexual people in your nation? Yes, although the limit for giving blood is set at six months after a man has sex with another man.

Family

Can same-sex couples marry with the same rights as different-sex couples in your nation? Yes.
Can same-sex couples enter into a civil partnership with the same rights as different-sex couples in your nation? No, see above. EXPLAINED: Tinhampton does not (or, at least, no longer does) offer civil partnerships in any form. By the Government's own admission shortly before being replaced in 2014, it was used as a stopgap measure to prevent what would (at the time) have been a controversial proposal to legalise same-sex marriage.
Can same-sex couples in your country enter into a civil partnership with weaker rights as married different-sex couples? No, see above.
Does your constituition or law limits marriage to a single kind of couple, like man and woman? No, see first question.
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? For the most part. EXPLAINED: The two parents at birth are always listed on the birth certificate, owing to sperm donor anonymity statutes. In the event of adoption, the couple are recognised as guardians but the official mother and father will always remain - if only in name - the couple that gave birth to the child in the first place.
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? Yes.
Are transgender parents recognised on birth certificates, documents, etc...? Only if copies of them are ordered after the transition.

Hate Crime and Hate Speech EXPLAINED: Tinhampton is a city and not an independent nation. As a result of the 25th Amendment to its Constitution, it does not regulate speech beyond those limits set by federal government. This means that the municipal government does not have a choice in much of this matter.

Gender Identity

Is intersex status especifically defended in hate crime legislation? Not yet.

Is there an explicit age restriction before a person's gender can be legally changed? Yes, twenty-one (an age set by the Gender Therapy Act of 2008 which has never been lowered).
Can intersex minors receive non-necessary medical or surgical intervention before they reach the age of informed consent? Only with parental consent.
Are trans identities considered a mental health disorder in national clinics (or equivalent)? Yes, grudgingly, see fifth question in this section.
Is Trans-Specific Healthcare acessible to anyone without needing GID or GIC (Gender Incongruence in Childhood) diagnosis? No. Tinhampton does not permit physical gender conversion therapy to those aged under 21, see above.

Civil Society Space

Can LGBT+ people assemble freely without obstruction from government or nonstate groups? Yes. EXPLAINED: The Tinhamptonian Government does not interfere, and has indeed encouraged, Tinhampton Pride and its sister events. After some squabbling during Pride 2011, an injunction was sought and has since been constantly renewed around the site.
Are LGBT+ demonstrations and events adequately protected? Yes, see above.
Are there any laws that prevent LGBT+ rights associations (NGO's or similar organizations) from acting? No.

Equality & Non-discrimination

Sexual Orientation

Does your constituition (or equivalent) includes provisions banning or limiting discrimination based on sexual orientation? Everyone is heterosexual. Attractions to the same gender, animals, children, dead bodies, or unwilling partners is a perversion. However, these are in us naturally. If you do not act upon these perversions(have sex with any of the above), then you have broken no law and your rights are fully protected as an equal, law-abiding citizen.
Does your country have employment laws that prevent discrimination based of sexual orientation? Look above. "Sexual orientation" is not something you can control, so if a person is simply "attracted" to someone of the same gender, but doesn't engage in sexual relations with someone of the same gender, they have committed no crime and thus can't be discriminated against. So yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of sexual orientation? Look at the above 2 answers. Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper education regardless of sexual orientation? A full education is mandatory for everyone.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper healthcare regardless of sexual orientation? Universal healthcare for all people in the nation, not just citizens.
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? No.
Does your government operate an active policy of improving human rights, protection and equality explicitly to all sexual orientation? No. Rather, our government encourages people to not act upon these lusts, because doing so is a crime. Not to mention, "Gay Pride" is illegal.

Gender Identity

Does your constituition (or equivalent) includes provisions banning or limiting discrimination based on gender identity? There is no gender identity. You are either biologically male or female, and that's that. Gender identity isn't even recognized, and it is illegal to think of yourself as a different gender than your biological gender.
Does your country have employment laws that prevent discrimination based of gender identity? See above.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of gender identity? See above.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper education regardless of gender identity? See above.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper healthcare regardless of gender identity? See above.
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? See above.
Does your government operate an active policy of improving human rights, protection and equality explicitly to all gender identities? The gender identity MUST match the biological gender. And everyone's rights are protected regardless of gender.

Sex Characteristics

Does your constituition (or equivalent) includes provisions banning or limiting discrimination based on sexual characteristic? That would be discrimination based on gender. That is illegal.
Does your country have employment laws that prevent discrimination based of sexual characteristic? Yes. Certain jobs are indeed gender specific jobs, but non-gender specific job employers can not discriminate based on gender.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of sexual characteristic? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper education regardless of sexual characteristic? Yes.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to have a proper healthcare regardless of sexual characteristic? Yes.
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? Yes.
Does your government operate an active policy of improving human rights, protection and equality explicitly to all sexual characteristic? Yes.

Gender Expression

Does your country law holds provisions to guarantee the right of gender expression? Based on your sexual characteristics, that is your gender. And you are allowed and even required to express your gender. Men must look like men, and women must look like women.

General

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

Family

Can same-sex couples marry with the same rights as different-sex couples in your nation? If they tried, they would be arrested. And if they are found to have had sexual relations with each other, they will be executed.
Can same-sex couples enter into a civil partnership with the same rights as different-sex couples in your nation? See above.
Can same-sex couples in your country enter into a civil partnership with weaker rights as married different-sex couples? See above.
Does your constituition or law limits marriage to a single kind of couple, like man and woman? Marriage can ONLY happen between a man and a woman.
Can same-sex couples legally apply for joint adoption? No, and if they tried, they would be arrested. Simply the fact that they're a same-sex couple would enough to arrest them. And if they're found to have had sexual relations with each other, they would be executed.
Can same-sex couples legally apply for second parent adoption? See above.
Can couples from all sexual orientations, gender identities and sexual characteristics be recognized as the parents of their children after birth or adoption? If you birthed the child, or fathered it, it is YOUR child and YOUR responsibility. With government help, of course.
Can couples, regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity, receive fertility treatment including artificial insemination? If it is a heterosexual couple, then yes. Artificial insemination is, however, illegal.
Can individuals, regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity, receive fertility treatment including artificial insemination? Yes, but artificial insemination is illegal.
Can transgender people marry based on their gender identity after their legal gender recognition, thus entering a different-sex marriage? You are only transgender if you have gender dysphoria, and if you do, you're either male or female. Gender dysphoria is curable here, so transgenders don't exist.
Are transgender parents recognised on birth certificates, documents, etc...? Transgenders(as defined above) don't exist in this nation.

History fact: Homosexuality was almost completely non-existent within Cesken until the liberation of Femdom Empire in the war between the Ceskian Alliance and the Femdom Empire. The large remainder of military forces still stationed in the newly annexed territory were tasked with purging undesirables (examples being Muslims, sexists, racists, Atheists, communists, and homosexuals) as well as preventing uprisings by Pro-Femdom holdouts. After 5 months, Cesken's homosexual population was back down to 0.1% (estimated), compared to its jump up to 9.8% when the new territory was annexed.

| Yes. Laws (of which there are very few in regards to employment), are specifically designed to promote freedom of employment.
Does your country have laws allowing anyone to purchase goods and services regardless of sexual orientation?
| Yes (technically no); access of goods and services regardless of the customer/employer's sexual orientation is a moral law. There are no legal laws banning it per say, but it is shunned upon to limit one's customer demographic in general.

| No, there are no laws to speak of. Healthcare is dealt by private companies.
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?
| There are no human rights institutions to speak of, and corporations have little incentive to protect or ensure human rights in general.
