五名日本妇女质疑绝育法,称该法侵犯了她们的身体自主性,寻求法律承认该程序为个人医疗选择。 Five Japanese women challenge a sterilization law they say violates their bodily autonomy, seeking legal recognition of the procedure as a personal medical choice.

2026年,5名日本妇女,包括Kazane Kajiya,正在挑战一项长达数十年的法律,该法律将绝育限制在多子女或有严重怀孕风险的妇女身上,并要求配偶同意,认为这侵犯了她们身体自主的宪法权利。 In 2026, five Japanese women, including Kazane Kajiya, are challenging a decades-old law that restricts sterilization to women with multiple children or serious pregnancy risks and requires spousal consent, arguing it violates their constitutional right to bodily autonomy. 反对做母亲的原告说,法律反映了过时的战时意识形态,这种意识形态把妇女当作生殖工具对待,并剥夺她们对自己身体的控制。 The plaintiffs, who oppose motherhood, say the law reflects outdated wartime ideology that treats women as reproductive vessels and denies them control over their own bodies. 她们寻求法律承认绝育是一种个人医疗选择,类似于整形外科手术,在一个只有0.5%的妇女由于避孕手段有限和社会耻辱而选择绝育的国家。 They seek legal recognition of sterilization as a personal medical choice, akin to plastic surgery, in a country where only 0.5% of women opt for it due to limited contraception and societal stigma. 预计很快将作出裁决。 A ruling is expected soon.
