Both women were held to have parental status over their child born via ‘reciprocal IVF’.
HONG KONG: A Hong Kong court has sided with a lesbian couple who argued that both women should have parental status over their child born via “reciprocal IVF”, a ruling hailed as a win for the LGBTQ community.
On Friday, judge Queeny Au-Yeung at the court of first instance ruled that the government’s non-recognition was a form of discrimination against the couple’s son. “The court should be astute to the changing world where people build families in different manners other than through a married or heterosexual relationship,” the judge added.
As Hong Kong does not recognise same-sex marriages, the two women in the case — who were granted anonymity by the court — were married and underwent RIVF in South Africa.
