Hungary moves to prohibit promotion of homosexuality, transgenderism to children
by Raymond Wolfe, LifeSite:
Parliament will vote on a bill banning ‘content that depicts sexuality for its own sake, or promotes or displays deviations from the identity of the sex of birth, gender reassignment or homosexuality.’
The Hungarian parliament has prepared a bill that would prohibit showing pornographic content or material that encourages homosexuality and transgenderism to minors under 18.
The measure, proposed by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s ruling Fidesz party, explicitly bans “content that depicts sexuality for its own sake, or promotes or displays deviations from the identity of the sex of birth, gender reassignment or homosexuality.”
The legal amendment was added to sweeping legislation against pedophilia that is set for a vote on Tuesday. Fidesz holds a super-majority in the Hungarian legislature.
LGBT ideology in schools, as well as in advertisements and other mass media, effectively would be banned under the anti-pedophilia bill, which also creates new provisions for sexual education, such as a list of approved sex-ed organizations.
Hungary has ramped up efforts to protect the majority-Christian nation’s traditional values and heritage from left-wing, pro-LGBT activism in recent years. In December, the government adopted changes to the national constitution, defining the family as “based on marriage and the parent-child relation.”
