CSU boss Markus Söder wants to ban gender in Bavaria, at least in state institutions. In doing so, he provides the AfD, one of the main opponents of gender, with a clear template.

Anyone who wants to change gender should do so, says Hans Moritz. Moritz: Why not gender and let gender – analogous to the Bavarian motto “live and let live”? Anyone who thinks it's stupid should leave it alone, he says.
