The Fukuoka High Court ruled that Japan’s current policy against same-sex marriage is discriminatory and unconstitutional on Friday. This marks the third time a High Court in the country has declared the ban on same-sex marriage unconstitutional, and this ruling specifically calls on the government to undertake necessary legal reforms.
