Emphasis added at the end there.
Please note: The "oppressive" previous laws (such as exist elsewhere) are insanely liberal by the standards of a few years ago.
Furthermore one can now painlessly change one's official gender back and forth as one pleases. I predict this will cause problems for the Danish authorities that they do not expect.

So if I want to go into women's lavatories, I just get the easy paperwork to declare myself a woman? Excellent!
But, of course, it would be oppression to restrict me to any predetermined list (however long) of genders - I must be able to define a gender that reflects my sense of gender identity, and redefine it as often as that sense changes. O brave new world!

The only positive is it could stop people from surgically mutilating their bodies and turning themselves into sterile eunuchs.

If it's going to be legal to change the sex that is recorded on your birth certificate, why not make it legal to change the date of birth?
Society celebrates youth and puts down old age. There are surely many more old people who could benefit by having their age lowered than there are idiots who want to mutilate their bodies because they think they should have been born the other sex.

So long as they do it in their own country, knock yourseves out kids.

What a waste of time for a society on the way to Sharia law.

I’d also like to declare my house a pocketwatch to avoid property tax.

You want people that are that mentally disturbed to remain able to procreate?

Nobody “across the world” is stopping these sexual deviant freaks from engaging in genital mutilation. WE NORMAL PEOPLE JUST DON’T WANT TO PAY FOR THEIR FREAKY, EXPENSIVE LITTLE SEXUAL EXPERIMENTS.
