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.

And you laughed when they said there's a trans genocide in the yookay. And now you'll laugh because there is one on the horizon. Remember: Total Tranny Death won at the ballot box (it's a democracy therefore it was voted on)

Troons seething at Rowling without realizing that the majority of women agree with her will never not be funny. Every post talking about how much they want to violently murder Rowling because she thinks they're men peak trans' another handmaiden. Very excited to see them sperging about the totally real Britbong troon genocide over the government not playing along with their shit lol.

Hopefully, the global cabal of troonery decides to declare war on Terf Island. Once all the hons and aidens are on the field, just nuke the shit out of England. 2 birds one nuke.

 

[Susanna]

Ah yes, threatening rape and murder, the most feminine of crimes.

 

[invisibult plus+]

Congrats from Burgerstan.

 

[Throwaway Email Enjoyer]

JKR's sheer smugness in that picture. Wonderful inclusion, OP.

 

[AnthonyLoggerhead]

The only thing that amazes me about this ruling is that United Kuckistan still has the balls to tell trannies “fuck off, YWNBAW” Will wonders never cease?



Not even surprised that mentally ill men are already fantasizing about murdering an old woman without the slightest shred of irony

 

[Balr0g]

You can also say "Female testicles BTFO by judges"

 

[AnthonyLoggerhead]

And you laughed when they said there's a trans genocide in the yookay. And now you'll laugh because there is one on the horizon. Remember: Total Tranny Death won at the ballot box (it's a democracy therefore it was voted on)

Genocide?

What a crazy week.

Its a great day for women, and therefore the world but unironically, this is such a sick W for the UK, genuinely hope it spreads to other countries. The fact that this very obvious thing had to go to the supreme court though, retarded.

 

[Quijibo69]

I hope they become the 100% soon, 41% is too low.

 

[Hepativore]

While the British government has been treating its citizens like crap lately with all of the censorship and surveillance measures, I think that the British will be among the first in the developed world to succeed in beating back this trans nonsense if it can be defeated.

Here in Burgerland, pink pills are being vomited out constantly in our culture, academia, and social media.

 

[Obnoxious Asshole]

Good. If they can turn that into an end to state funded titty skittles and mutilation they will have taken the first steps back to a civilized society.

 

[RussianBlonde]

Despite this ruling being excellent news, it cost our taxpayers many hundreds of thousands of our Great British Squid to decide this.

Judge will need to hire some personal bodyguards at all times because he has incurred the full wrath of every 6'3'' AGP fetishist and Discord ageplay groomer in the country. The bottom of his garden wall will be scaled by thousands like that scene from World War Z. Just instead of zombies it's men in women's clothing.

They are not gonna go after the judge. They only go after, and harass, women.

He's also the judge, not some Harry Potter writer, so if he started getting threats I'm 99% sure British cops would use their internet hate crime unit to find and arrest the offenders.

 

[CertifiedFedBot]

It's ironic that if troon had never spoken up and just continued being a niche phenomenon none of this would've happened. Turns out that sunlight is indeed the best disinfectant.

iirc the UK Supreme Court was set up by Blair, it’s not a time-honored institution like ours. Interesting tidbit.
