Lawmakers in Hungary passed legislation Tuesday that prohibits sharing with minors any content portraying homosexuality or sex reassignment. Hungary’s National Assembly passed the bill on a 157-1 vote. The ruling Fidesz party has a parliamentary majority. Hungary’s conservative ruling party introduced the legal changes last as part of a bill aimed at fighting pedophilia and protecting children. “In order to ensure… the protection of children’s rights, pornography and content that depicts sexuality for its own purposes or that promotes deviation from gender identity, gender reassignment and homosexuality shall not be made available to persons under the age of 18,” the legal text reads.
