Ruling says the concept of sex is binary
In an 88-page ruling, Lord Hodge, Lady Rose and Lady Simler said: “The definition of sex in the Equality Act 2010 makes clear that the concept of sex is binary, a person is either a woman or a man.
“Persons who share that protected characteristic for the purposes of the group-based rights and protections are persons of the same sex and provisions that refer to protection for women necessarily exclude men.
“Although the word ‘biological’ does not appear in this definition, the ordinary meaning of those plain and unambiguous words corresponds with the biological characteristics that make an individual a man or a woman.
“These are assumed to be self-explanatory and to require no further explanation.
“Men and women are on the face of the definition only differentiated as a grouping by the biology they share with their group.”
Not the Bee?
...but you still have to allow muslims to rape you.”
Silly Walks
In three months President Trump has started a world wide reset.
This is not as good a thing as many would hope. Take note that the UK has decided the common person cannot legally determine what man or woman is. The UK requires the government to define it, taking that fact of nature out of the hands of it’s subjects.
Bandidos!
The UK’s leftist political correctness had to walk back a step on this issue.
Hard-core communists were always taught this may be the case on the way to achieving their goals.
But Leftists take steps forward on other issues particularly suppression of free speech online and unrestricted immigration just to mention a few things.
Bingo.
This is just the UK’s Deep State retrenching.
This is a very strong decision, it will be hard to overturn.
And I continue to say, we’ve gotten to where we are without any court, anywhere, ever ruling CONCLUSIVELY in the opposite direction - that is, ruling that a man, an XY real man, is actually a woman in a legal sense.
It’s been a remarkable episode, and perhaps the UK Supreme Court (which was a terrible idea, BTW) may be bringing it to an end.
Nice :)
Irrelevant if they keep giving the tranny freak shows protection based on what they think they are. The whole LGBTWRSTUVWXYZ freak shows need to be put in their place at every opportunity. They need to crawl back in the closet and lock the door.
It won’t need to overturned.
Biological can be defined any way the UK’s Deep State wishes.
Note that ruling doesn’t use a genetic definition.
Meanwhile, the ruling provides handy cover for the fact that the same Deep State just denied Tommy Robinson’s appeal.
There are 11 types of people:
Those who understand binary, those who don’t, and the truly stupid who think nonbinary is a thing.
LOL, well done.
The lame stream media will NEVER cover your observation as they are technically illiterate.
Trannies and perverts most affected. Plastic surgeons to lose public money.....
