I know it’s a hot topic in both the real world, and online, but I suspect not a huge shock to those learned individuals. I doubt the Scottish Government will be appealing, I suspect Swinney keen to put it behind the SNP. A sad day for trans women. I’m sure they, and their allies, will campaign on to try to persuade the UK government to amend the various acts next.

Edit: locking this post to stop fly-bys. As a mod I don’t want to see the discourse descend further than what has already been posted

    I wouldn’t see any problems with having to prove your sex to join a gym or the likes

    Right, and for every other sex-segregated space that is regularly brought up in these discussions and which doesn’t require registration beforehand? What about the bathrooms at a restaurant? I don’t need a membership to go to the local swimming pool. If I get arrested I’m not likely to have my birth certificate on me.

        Still doesn’t change that there are two sexes.

        One day you might learn that there is, in fact, more biology than what you learned in primary school
