NextImg:UK Supreme Court Rules That Women-Only Spaces are For Biological, Not "Trans," Women

There's such a thing as a "woman." Apparently being a woman is not just down to "whether I'm feelin' cute today."

Who knew.

The Supreme Court of the United Kingdom unanimously ruled Wednesday that a woman is someone born biologically female, a move that now excludes transgender women from the legal definition of a woman.

Trans women can be excluded from some single-sex spaces and groups under the U.K. Equality Act, the five judges of the top court ruled. These spaces and groups include changing rooms, homeless shelters, swimming areas and medical or counseling services provided only to women.

The ruling means that even a transgender person with a certificate that recognizes them as female should not be considered a woman for equality purposes.

But Justice Patrick Hodge said its ruling "does not remove protection from trans people," who are "protected from discrimination on the ground of gender reassignment."

Oh wonderful.

Hannah Ford, an employment lawyer, said that while the judgment will provide clarity on the controversial issue in the U.K., it would be a setback for transgender rights and there would be "an uphill battle" to ensure workplaces are welcoming places for trans people.


"This will be really wounding for the trans community," Ford told Sky News.

Oh no, a wounding.


I understand that this ruling has "literally erased" trans people.
