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.

Strange how all the violence I see coming from the trans debate happens to come from the trans side. I've never seen someone on the side of reason say that all trans people should be killed, but these hons do it on the regular.

 

[Hooked on phobics]

I dont like JKR or feminists but you're a tranny fellating faggot.

To expand on this, I don't like them either, but I also have hopes female attitude would improve if troons and rapist migrants weren't an issue. Women are more emotional and while the IRE isn't always really because of other men, if you had to live in a place with rapist migrants, perverts invading dressing rooms, ect ect, I could see being VERY bitter towards men just in general. Especially because its probably exhausting trying to give the benefit of the doubt.

Its unpleasant, but I kinda get it.

Certainly explains sillypoo, don't they live in scotland or whatever? I could see them saying "fuck it, no men" if thats what they had to live in

unfortunate, but I dare say you can place half the weight of the blame for that on trannies rather than women just being bitchy.

I recent lost a deeply personal, long-lasting, and important relationship in my life because of trannies, and if course the start of her final social justice battle where she valiantly slayed the TERF (me) was stated because she brought up Rowling. This news and that tweet probably sent her into a conniption fit.

We have a giant thread about people losing their friends and family to troonery. Happened to a friend of mine I've known for 15+ years. This ideology is poison.

Its almost like they’re mentally unstable or something

 

[missnaptime]

its a fantastic day to be a woman and an even better day knowing that my existence and its right to exist unimpeded from troonism makes trannies seethe and cope. if the rope is trans themed, will it be affirming whilst they 41%? let's get that number up <3

i WILL marry JK rowling and make her based

I want to cum inside J.K. Rowling.

Ain't nobody gonna be sad

Typical SJW lying. If and when Rowling passes away, there'll be people who'll miss her.

And didn't the SJWs used to look up to Rowling, just like they used to look up to Musk?

Would've been better if it was some icy juice and weed instead of alkie and tobaccie.
Just because you "made it" doesn't mean it's a good idea to twist yourself on the inside, especially if it's just to own some brainfucked eunuchs.
Yes, it bothers me that some random woman is poisoning herself. I don't know why I give a fuck, I'd rather not.

Rowling is a boomer billionaire, whisky and a blunt is the most mild thing that she's probably taken.

No, it was about any sort of sex based discrimination in employment that isn't justified by a legitimate business purpose. ie in employment law they're called BFOQs

If you provide any kind of benefits or different treatment for female employees than you do for males, that isn't tied substantially to a legitimate business purpose, that can be challenged under Title VII.

And it's simple enough for anyone familiar with the tranny issue that it applies to trannies too, not because they're women, but because they're male and that would make it sex discrimination. It applies to cis men just as much.

Let's take a look at what the decision says:

An individual's homosexuality or transgender status is not relevant to employment decisions. That's because it is impossible to discriminate against a person for being homosexual or transgender without discriminating against that individual based on sex. Consider, for example, an employer with two employees, both of whom are attracted to men. The two individuals are, to the employer's mind, materially identical in all respects, except that one is a man and the other a woman. If the employer fires the male employee for no reason other than the fact he is attracted to men, the employer discriminates against him for traits or actions it tolerates in his female colleague. Put differently, the employer intentionally singles out an employee to fire based in part on the employee's sex, and the affected employee's sex is a but-for cause of his discharge. Or take an employer who fires a transgender person who was identified as a male at birth but who now identifies as a female. If the employer retains an otherwise identical employee who was identified as female at birth, the employer intentionally penalizes a person identified as male at birth for traits or actions that it tolerates in an employee identified as female at birth. Again, the individual employee's sex plays an unmistakable and impermissible role in the discharge decision.

There's nothing incidental about it. Trannies are singled out and given the full protection of the law.

No shit, I know who she is, to me she still is "some random woman".
And if you think that's mild, then I dunno. Whatever you think. I don't have to prove anything to anyone.

Dummy, I get that she's celebrating. She just happens to introduce some real awful rot into her body as she celebrates and for some reason it bothers me, which I expressed.
There are better ways to celebrate.

The Vagina Museum has no reason at all to exist. I'm looking through their website and to the surprise of absolutely nobody, it's drenched with "inclusive" (tranny bootlicking) language.

Bonus weird shit that I found, too.
