UK SUPREME COURT Sparks Fury: “Woman” NOW Means Biological Female Only
— The UK Supreme Court has ruled that, by law, the word “woman” means only those born biologically female. This decision leaves transgender women out of the legal definition. The ruling is already causing heated debate across Britain.
Women’s rights groups cheered outside the court. They say this protects single-sex spaces and keeps women’s sports fair. Justice Patrick Hodge said using “certificated sex” would confuse laws and stressed that protections for transgender people still exist.
Opponents argue the decision strips transgender people of legal recognition and rights. Political leaders are now calling for new laws as protests break out across the country.
This major ruling will shape future debates about gender identity and legal rights in Britain for years to come.
