I understand that the decision of the UKSC is not unlimited. Can we clear up some of the things that women can't do as a result?

I'll start.

This ruling doesn't mean that women can herd sheep over London Bridge.

Over to the rest of you:

Do hand springs over the arches of the Tyne Bridge, playing "Rather go Blind" on a harmonica.

Operate heavy machinery while wearing a rhinestone bikini and humming “She’ll Be Coming Round The Mountain”.

Good grief, no! Jewellery on one of our worksites would bring down the Wrath of Elfin Safety!

Object to pineapple on a pizza.

It is clear that the UKSC ruling doesn't give anyone the right to create a parking thread on AIBU without a diagram.

Unthinkable!

Have a prostate exam... Well, they could try, but it would be very unsuccessful.

(They can however identify as a beetle and totally get away with it!)

Kucinghitam · 21/04/2025 20:23

... blame in on the sunshine or the moonlight.

(But they can blame it on the boogie).

I thought female with a dsd, could be wrong though.

From the book,

“Benítez sighed. “I believe the clinical terms are surgery to correct a fusion of the labia majora and minora, and a clitoropexy.”

Not a TW but a woman with a DSD.

I didn't think it was clear at all, maybe the point? Apparently the book makes it clear it's a TW. Confused

Be a useless Manchester United men's football team player.

Join certain golf and other clubs where membership is men only.

Dunno, i watched Conclave...

I thought the ending of Conclave was a male with a DSD? or was it a female with a DSD? My friend thar I watched it with told me (very slowly as if i was stupid) that they were "intersex". What i said they were still either male or female they told me I was wrong.

Sorry. Off topic.

Wot?

Are you saying "Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose" ?

because if so ... no no no noooo! Women can't breathe underwater, or fly ... yet! ... but there's time to find out how!

Show quote history

No it was Martin Luther, who said this when asked to recant his heretical views:
“Hier stehe ich. Ich kann nicht anders."
Here I stand. I cannot do otherwise.

So this ruling doesn't mean that women can ..nicht anders.

Obscure - my previous two suggestions were from the Rolling Stones and Diana Ross, so I was trying to go upmarket😏
