Deep dives
Legal Definition of Gender in the UK
The UK Supreme Court has ruled that the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex, affirming that boys have male reproductive organs and girls have female reproductive organs. This ruling came about after a lengthy legal battle involving the Scottish government and various advocacy groups over the interpretation of sex-based protections under the Equality Act. The court emphasized that this decision should not be seen as a victory for one side but rather a reaffirmation of biological facts. Moving forward, this ruling is expected to protect women's spaces in public life, ensuring that quotas and regulations do not include males who identify as female.
