Bill to ensure a safe and secure environment for women in women’s space
１．Background and Objectives
 In October 2023, the Supreme Court ruled that the provision that requires "the absence of
gonads or a permanent lack of gonad function" in the law that stipulates the conditions for
gender change in Japan is unconstitutional.
 In response to this, concerns have been raised that "men who identify themselves as
women may enter women's restrooms and commit crimes," and that "women's safety and
security may be at risk."
 In response to these concerns, we are considering submitting the bill to ensure a safe and
secure environment for women.
２．Outline of the bill
 For public baths and changing rooms etc., which are used by many people without wearing
clothes, measures will be taken by the relevant ministries and managers of such facilities,
regarding the separate use of facilities by men and women, based on the premise that men
and women are distinguished by physical characteristics.
 In facilities that are normally used by men and women separately, such as restrooms,
managers of such facilities will be required to make efforts to take necessary measures,
such as providing necessary equipments and patrols, to ensure a safe and secure
environment for women to use the facilities.
