Civil couples for politicians, and blood donation for homosexuals[edit]

As far as I know, and after a brief research on the internet, in Italy if you are a member of parliament you have the right to register as a civil couple. In fact, there are a few politicians who live in a registered civil couple (Casini, for example), despite being against such form of recognition for other people.

Furthermore, the rules for blood donation exclude people who engage in a homosexual behaviour, even if in a stable relationship, from donating blood. This has undergone a lot of criticism recently, after a man has been refused the opportunity to donate, but up to now I don't think the rule has been changed. Can anyone please make some research and check this out? I'd do it myself, but I don't think I'd be able to respect all the rules for Wikipedia editing.

Wrong translation...[edit]

I allow myself to change the part about unification of Italy : indeed, if you read the Italian page, or any other site for that matter, you will see that the Kingdom of Sardegna DID NOT take into consideration other states' non criminalizing legislation, and only the kingdom of Sicily still outlawed it. It is the OPPOSITE : Kingdom of Sardegna applied its own CRIMINALIZING legislation to every other state, EXCEPT the Kingdom of Sicily, which was the only one NOT PENALIZING homosexuality. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.141.93.204 (talk) 08:44, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

July 21, 2015: Ruling of European Court of Human Rights[edit]

  • 21 - The European Court of Human Rights ruled that Italy is violating human rights, because there is no Civil union or same-sex marriage in country. Because of the ruling, also other homosexual couples in those european countries can accuse their government, where no civil unions or same-sex marriages are in law.

On same-sex marriage legislation in Italy[edit]

I'd like to know the source that substantiate the claim that same-sex marriages are "banned" in Italy. I wouldn't want to sound defensive or defend Italy as a country - that's completely outside of my intentions - but neither the constitution nor any other law in Italy bans same-sex marriages, except for the likes of conservative politicians claiming the italian constitution bans it [1]. The fact same-sex marriage is still not recognized by the italian law does not mean it is banned. Even though it is still objectively backwards compared to other western european countries, Italy is a lot more liberal than Poland or Romania, two countries that actually ban same-sex marriage from their constitution. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.44.105.251 (talk) 11:39, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Does the article use the word "banned"? Contaldo80 (talk) 09:41, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It's in the summary box top right. I don't see why "banned" needs to mean "prohibited by the constitution", but in any case it's perhaps a bit vague. Rather write "not legal"? Sigur (talk) 18:02, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Legislation in the former Kingdom of Two Sicilies[edit]

With unification, the former Kingdom of Sardinia extended its own criminalizing legislation to the rest of the newly born Kingdom of Italy. However, this legislation did not apply to the former Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, taking into account the "particular characteristics of those that lived in the south".

I would like a source about this. I did find a copy of the decree extending the Penal Code to the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies[1], but article 425 seems to be explicitly excluded only for the "provincie napoletane" (Neapolitan provinces) and not the entirety of the former kingdom.--Hoheolo (talk) 13:43, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
