TS Marriages in Ohio

In California, a pre-operative transgendered may only marry an individual who's gender is opposite their current (pre-op) status. After SRS, in California a transgendered may only marry an individual who's gender is opposite their (the transgendered's) new gender.

However, remember that each state sets its own conditions for marriage. At the web site of a Cleveland, Ohio attorney, I found the following:

1.Who may marry in Ohio?

Ohio law provides that males eighteen (18) years old and females sixteen (16) years old may enter into marriage. Those under the age of eighteen must first obtain consent to marry.

Only persons of opposite gender are permitted to obtain a marriage license in Ohio. Ohio does not recognize homosexual marriage and thus, a homosexual couple can not be granted a divorce. Ohio law also does not allow for the marriage of a surgically changed transsexual to a person who is the same gender as that of the transsexual prior to the surgical change.
