The only party that is actively aggressively campaigning for trans rights is DEM right now lmao. CHP has up to this point been completely quiet on trans issues (except for 1 MP I forgot the name of, who is also seen as a "terror sympathizer" by the public), and YENİ just recently published the statement that "Nobody will face discrimination for their sexual orientation/gender identity", which is kinda the bare minimum ngl.
If YENİ comes to power, I'd guess at most we will get rid of the 21 year old age limit Erdogan put. We definitely aren't getting the WPATH SoC though, especially with some "opposition" parties like İYİ who are conservative anti-LGBTQ Kemalists that broke off from a literal neofascist party, and who will surely side against us when push comes to shove.
Well, I hope Kilicdaroglu fucking drops out already so at the very least we can have that.
Well, until 2025, they allowed age 16 to start HRT with family consent.
They intentionally avoid talking about LGBT to attract more votes.
I'm sure they will give us our rights once they win.
If Erdoğan loses, they will join the EU as they're looking for expansion, and they need Türkiye more than anything else.
They even think about accepting Türkiye into the EU with Erdoğan so idk.
