DescriptionIn 2017, Arapongas became the first locality to prohibit “gender ideology,”, “orienting the sexuality of students” and similar. Since then, some localities have done the same, some of which (notably Londrina's and Cascavel's) have been overturned in 2020 by the supreme court on the basis of unconstitutionality.
