British Court Rules Legal Definition of Women is Based on Biological Sex
Britain’s Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday that trans women do not meet the legal definition of female under the country’s Equality Act.
-
The Central question on this appeal is the meaning of the terms woman and sex in the ‘Equality Act 2010.’ Do those terms refer to biological women or biological sex, or is a woman to be interpreted as extending to a trans woman with a gender recognition certificate? and sex to be interpreted as including what I will refer to as certificated sex. The unanimous decision of this court is that the terms woman and sex in the ‘Equality Act 2010’ refer to a biological woman and biological sex.
