U.K. Top Court Says Trans Women Do Not Meet Legal Definition of Women Under Equality Act​

Britain’s Supreme Court was asked to rule on whether trans women can be defined as female under a British law that aims to protect against discrimination.

The Supreme Court in Britain ruled on Wednesday that trans women do not fall within the legal definition of women under the country’s equality legislation.

The deputy president of the court, Lord Hodge, said in a summary of the decision: “The unanimous decision of this court is that the terms ‘woman’ and ‘sex’ in the Equality Act 2010 refer to biological women and biological sex.”

However, he added: “We counsel against reading this judgment as a triumph of one or more groups in our society at the expense of another, it is not.” He said the ruling “does not cause disadvantage to trans people” because they have protections under anti-discrimination and equality laws.

The landmark judgment follows a yearslong legal battle over whether trans women can be regarded as female under the 2010 law, which aims to prevent discrimination on the basis of gender, sexuality, race and other protected characteristics.

The decision was highly anticipated because it could have potentially far-reaching consequences for how the law is applied to single sex spaces, equal pay claims and maternity policies as well as to some of the rights available to transgender people in Britain.

next big societal cringecancer (i.e. an insufferably obnoxious and retarded special snowflake status/idenity backed by commercial/institutional/state wealth and power and enforced by a screaming activist and social media mob) is gonna be

I think it'll be a while. These institutions have the same problem as all others, the IQ drop. The tranny shit has flopped because the people who were pushing it were violent 85 IQ retards who were stumped by something as simple as "what is a woman". If they had stayed in the realm of "transmedicalism" and used doctors and psychologists as talking heads their position would've had a much more efficient motte and bailey instead of the transparent lunacy that ultimately killed it.
These games of subversion aren't sprints you can't go from "trannies are gross" to total troon takeover in 10 years and expect no backlash. You poison the social well over decades and always keep your toe on the line, and that toe must be attractive and immaculately manicured. When they brought out the rapehons, it was all over.

Extremely rare UK win.

I'm really loving the tranny seethe.

The Silver Terfer is only the herald of their immanent destruction. Not sure I'd like this universe's version of Galactus though...



But whatever it takes for TTD.

Neoliberalism at it's most predictable conclusion.

I'm unclear who to side with here. I hate radical feminists and trannies. Also, Harry Potter is a shitty Lord of the Rings ripoff.

I guess I just sit back and watch. For what it's worth, I would rather hang out with JK as long as we don't talk about feminism. At least she looks normal, while most trannies make me want to vomit on sight. I also find it funny that trannies are telling her to kill herself when so many of them do that. Many of the people in the screenshots probably won't be alive in 5 years.

 

[Angelicaster]

Not sure how serious is the tranny diseae in Scotland but now I can't wait to see them trying to separate from the UK only because trannies can't fullfil their fetishes

 

[GigaChad]

Did trannies think they can keep up their spiel when the UK is becoming a muslim majority?

>So intersex people don't exist?
What is it with trannies and pointing at intersex people as some sort of "gotcha"/counterexample? Intersex people are incredibly rare and are dealt with on a case-to-case basis. You are not intersex, you are just a mentally ill man, and they don't have to cater to you.

I bet they're gonna compare their struggles with others, just so they can get their fucking share of pity from the internet.

Not the craziest expectation when Iran gives out trans surgeries to gay people.

I'm not sure why I keep having to remind A&Hers of this but you can agree with people on some things and disagree with them on others. It's called regular rational human thought.

I don't care what JK Rowling's personal politics are because she's an Englishwoman who lives thousands of miles away. You may see her as different but your mutual enemy, the tranny, thinks you're both bigoted chud neo-Nazis worthy of death regardless of your politics on other issues. Get your heads out of the sand.

Muslim mass-rapists get the rope too.

[BigUUUU]

Nah, what happened is that they enabled it, their ideology is upstream of it, they control the HR departments that force you to accept it, on and on. You know this is true, so don't bother seething about it — it obviously wasn't the patriarchy that gave us this problem.

No lies detected. No use dwelling too long on past grudges. The important thing is more women are recovering from the tranny enabling madness…hopefully the majority of men and women can once again unite in agreement that troons are mentally ill. Thats whats important; reclassifying the phenomenon as the disease it is so it stops being promoted.

 

[BongoMongo]

Apparently the UK troons are organizing a protest in June.
They're planning a march in central London, topless.

Not until June? Jesus Christ they're hardly prioritising this are they? If it's such a pressing issue you'd expect them to be rallying sooner.

I guess they've got to save up enough pennies from their universal credit payments for spinny skirts and thigh high socks and to plan their outfits or something. You know, just girl things that all of us women worry about amiright?
