Forums - Politics - UK Supreme Court rules the definition of a woman is based on biological sex

I'm wondering what the benefits of this could possibly be?
Because, it's not like anyone has to adhere to their language, and it doesn't seem to be enforceable - because if they try to enforce it, they'll be pressured to overturn it on grounds of discrimination.

It doesn't seem that this anything more than a big discriminatory virtue signal to please stupid people. They're stupid because the people pleased about this gain nothing, and yet are often passionate about harming others and will dedicate energy to do so with no personal gain for them or anyone really.

So, my take on this is pointless agitation, and ultimately nothing more than a virtue signal against a culture of freedom and liberty.

It was because of the women's protection act that protects women in public spaces. This means that you can't go around the law by pretending to be a woman and this way women to lose their protection that the specific law is made for.

One might argue whether the act itself is discriminatory, but this isn't for the court to decide.

This basically gives free reign to allow the exclusion of trans women from female spaces, which I maintain is and has always been bad policy when applied with a broad brush. Nuance should be the standard with these discussions as they require the balancing of rights and protections for all relevant parties.



Does this now mean that trans men are forced to use women’s bathrooms?
