India federally recognizes more than two genders.
Probably the most progressive destination in terms of gender recognition TBH
More progressive than Nordic countries or Israel?
Please teach me.

Nordics are all high up on this list and every other comparison of this kind. They are highly progressive countries with strong democratic institutions.
While Israel isn't that high up (still slightly ahead of India though), I mentioned it, because Tel Aviv in particular is widely considered one of the most gay-friendly cities in the world (and certainly centuries ahead of the rest of the region). A gay friend of mine even called it the "gay capital of the world" once - and while that's hardly authoritative, if you search for this term, it'll usually come up. This sparked a bit of a debate among us whether Berlin and Amsterdam were gayer, but we didn't come to a definitive conclusion.
Finland has only dropped their sterilization requirement for gender recognition a couple years ago, in 2023 (!)
Buenos Aires is the real gay capital of the world thank you very much :P
Wow, that's late. Was this still enforced in 2023?
