What is sections 3-4?!?

[edit]

Does anyone know what the sections 3-4 of the Marriage Act are? I have searched for an English translation of this act, but have not found one. The reason I ask is simply, the Registered Partnership Act gives all the same benefits to same-sex couples as to heterosexual couples, *except* those in sections 3 and 4. BUT WHAT ARE THEY? -Anonymous Coward 15:16, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

never mind. I've been stupid. Sections 3-4 are not of the Marriage act, but rather the registered partnership act. To quote chaChapter 3 Legal effects of registered partnership

Section 1. Registered partnership has the same legal effects as marriage, except as provided by sections 3-4.

Provisions of a statute or other legislation related to marriage and spouses shall be applied in a corresponding manner to registered partnerships and registered partners unless otherwise provided by the rules concerning exceptions contained in sections 3-4.

Section 2. Repealed

Section 3. Provisions applicable to a married spouse solely by reason of that spouse's sex, do not apply to registered partners.

Section 4. The provisions of the Ordinance concerning Certain International Legal Relationships relating to Marriage, Adoption and Guardianship (1931:429) do not apply to registered partnerships.

As such, my question doesn't apply... -Anonymous Coward15:35, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Saunas

[edit]

"In 1987 a law against sex in saunas was created to prohibit the spread of HIV, but it was repealed in 2004. Homosexuals are not banned from Military Service." How is this essential? --212.247.27.66 15:47, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Marriage verification

[edit]

Is it correct that Sweden will allow SSM from 1 May 2009? I need sources and correct identification and verification. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.217.252.207 (talk) 03:47, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is true. As for reliable sources, [1] produces a ton of them in Swedish. [2] is okay for an English one I guess. I haven't updated the article yet, give me a few minutes. Dendlai (talk) 04:42, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Adoption and living requirements for marriage

[edit]

How can adoption be provided when soon there will be no "registered partnership" - so does that mean that same sex couples "have to marry" to qualify to adopt children, when the registered partnership law is repealed?

Also with same sex marriage do you have to live in Sweden to qualify to marry? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.207.230 (talk) 15:32, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No. Those in registered partnership will keep their rights (which include basically everything Same-sex marriage will grant, including adoption), and they can "upgrade" to marriage if they wish to or not. The only real difference would be the label on their relationship. I will clarify this in the article tomorrow. And to marry... Well, same rules as for hetero marriage (the new law is entirely genderless). Which I guess means you can get married at a Swedish embassy in any country or somesuch. Whatever the rules regarding marriage is. Dendlai (talk) 16:32, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am a homosexual swede, 70 years old, have written a book on homosexuality, have contributed on Wikipedia with clippings and articles from daily newspapers in Sweden about the situation for gays and lesbians. The clippings have all been refused and deleted. Have almost been banned on Wikipedia for telling the truth about the conditions gay people in Sweden have to live under, and as a swede, living in a samesex relation since 1960, in Sweden, one might think that I would have some insight in how living conditions for homosexuals are in Sweden, but no, instead of following the headline PUBLIC OPINION, one tends to not have any interest in finding out what the public opinion is, but instead rely on laws. In my opinion one should take the part PUBLIC OPINION away since nothing there has to do with what the public thinks. I thought the truth was something interesting but one rather tend to try and keep the image Sweden has as neutral and broadminded instead of understanding and seeing all sides of the country. In fact the most accepting and welcoming country when gays are concerned today is Germany. That fact can be found anywhere on the internet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PeterGomer (talk • contribs) 16:00, 9 February 2012 (UTC) do you still work for wiki[reply]

"Commercial surrogacy for gay male couples"?

[edit]

The check box at the bottom lists "Commercial surrogacy for gay male couples." What does that even mean?? --Sabre ball t c 19:12, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I was just wondering about this too. I doubt that ANY commercial surrogacy is allowed here in Sweden. Sounds kind of irrelevant..--185.8.100.18 (talk) 15:59, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

People calling in sick

[edit]

This appears to be a misleading discussion of what actually happened. See the Slate article here http://www.slate.com/blogs/outward/2013/09/18/calling_in_gay_did_70s_swedes_really_get_paid_sick_leave_for_being_homosexual.html which tells a different story. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.117.145.230 (talk) 14:42, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Information about the removal of the law exemption for churches

[edit]

(In "Recognition of same-sex relationships") "In August 2020, it was announced and reported that the government of Sweden is to soon remove the 2009 law exemption - for religious freedoms to conduct same-sex marriage within all churches in Sweden by force (basically forcing religious ministers to conduct same-sex marriage)." - The section above does not cite any sources (the reference is empty). Can anyone provide any reliable sources for the given information? If not, it should be removed. Nothing like that seems to be mentioned in the Swedish version of the article either.
