To think that this week, as court decides what the legal definition of a woman is, that the Scottish Government (and others) aren't fit for purpose?

The meaning of what a woman is, is supposedly being hammered out in court this week.
How many of you know we are being reclassified this week?

"If the Supreme Court rules that a man can become a woman because he declares it to be so - and vice versa - then the sex-based protections provided by the Equality Act will become meaningless.
After all, how does one protect - or even begin to consider - the rights of women if to be a woman is nothing more than a feeling?"

YANBU - To think that this week, as court decides what the legal definition of a woman is, that the Scottish Government aren't fit for purpose and neither is anyone else in senior positions who can't understand why biology is important.

YABU - Gender identity is more important than the sex based rights of women. Woman is an idea and anyone can identify as one.

We've gotten here by a few "hidden" pathways trodden by stealth trans activists who have now gained enough power to attack the meaning and reality of the basic building blocks of life - when you can deconstruct biological sex and have people go along with you - you can get people to do anything you want.

"A truly despicable move from a once-respected human rights organisation, which now openly champions the elitist, first world notion of 'gender identity' over biological sex, the basis on which females across the globe are oppressed."

JK Rowling on the betrayal of Amnesty International intervening in order to influence the decision in favour of gender over biological sex.

In case they’re not sure, poor things, I can tell them that a woman is an Adult Human Female. Will three words be too much to take in?

Noteworthy that what a "man" is has never been up for debate...

I can't believe we've reached this level of stupid.

There are women, and there are men dressed as women. The end.
