Unmarried couples in a live-in relationship must register it with the government within 30 days of moving in together. The registrar reviews the application and may ask for additional information during an investigation. If approved, the relationship is recorded in a register and a certificate issued. Refusal to register may occur if one partner is married, a minor, or if consent was obtained through coercion or fraud. Partners can end the relationship by notifying the registrar and their partner. Failing to register the relationship or providing false information can result in fines, up to 3 months of imprisonment, or both.
Dude… Social progress for the LGBTQ community has been exponential. U were talking about the trans community. Look at the number of people feeling safe enough to come out as trans in the past five years. The dramatically rising numbers have led to an equally strong pushback from the conservatives. This however will subside. We have seen this happen in case of the gays as well. Look at how closed stuff was during decriminalization and marriage recognition (which was just 10-20 years around the world).
I for instance would have never ever ever thought of being able to come out as gay back in school. In fact, in India, it was criminalized at the time. Don’t get me wrong- homophobia is still very rampant in India. However, it’s decreasing at unimaginable rates.
There aren’t that many bad people as social media would lead us to believe. People change. Their ideas change. So uk… Have hope I suppose.
