Single sex exemptions and the Equality Act - advice needed

[doingnicely]

I need to take up the issue of single sex accommodation with an organisation. They say they would have an obligation to a transgirl under the Equality Act 2010 to put them in with the girls albeit single rooms with showers will be available in this instance but still in the girls' section.

I want them to respect girls' rights to sex-segregated accommodation under the Equalities Act and think the transgirl should not be accommodated with the girls.

What I'm slightly uncertain about is the gender reassignment characteristic in the EA 2010. Could they argue that trans comes under that? We are talking teenage male child who identifies as a girl here, not anyone who has had surgery or with a GRC.

Can anyone advise? I might not be able to get back to this thread until tomorrow night so sorry if I don't reply until then.

Even if the rooms are separate, I still wouldn't want the possibility of any of the girls getting pregnant because it was easy for a male child in the room next door to slip into hers. This is why I presume any trips that DD has been on have been segregated by different floors or even buildings.

Growing issue where my partner works. Single-sex student block very popular with Muslim young women. Male students stating they are women want to be admitted (institution terrified of trans issues, under great pressure from activist groups to prioritize trans rights over public sector freedom of speech duty, the usual) which is going to explode shortly.

There are two examples of this on the thread. It's deliberate boundary violation for validation purposes. Why can't they go to a mixed one FFS.

Thanks again everybody. I still feel a bit confused about the law but it seems like that is unsurprising! I have now written to the organisation. That in itself feels like a good thing because they know at least one person is unhappy. I should say that they are a fantastic organisation in general so I am hoping for a considered response.

I asked a number of questions and framed things in terms of the protected characteristic of sex and the exemptions which are available. The Fairplay for Women page was really helpful.
