Nepal grants its LGBT citizens the dignity America can't

From gaypolitics.com:

The Nepali Supreme Court released a decision today granting protections and rights for sexual and gender minorities. The decision comes after four gay rights groups, including the Blue Diamond Society, filed a petition through the court.

The decision reads, in part:

All LGBTI must be defined as "natural persons" and their physical growth as well as sexual orientation, gender identity, expression are all part of natural growing process. Thus equal rights, identity and expression must be ensured regardless of their sex at birth.

Okay, America. Nepal gets it. Let's get on the ball!
