Deiseb a wrthodwyd Review with transgender involvement: The legal definition of a woman in Wales to include trans women
We have regressed as a society because of the new law brought forward by the Supreme Court. This will have a huge impact on the lives of people in the transgender community, especially taking a huge toll on their mental health and wellbeing. The law suggests that transgender women being in women-only spaces pose a risk, despite them being one of the most vulnerable groups. As a trans man, I can personally say this ruling has caused more confusion and fear than clarity for the trans community.
Rhagor o fanylion
Approximately 70% of trans people have experienced verbal or physical harassment. Even though this is a high statistic, when reviewing this case, we cannot assume this number is correct, as many incidents go unreported.
The Guardian:
“The supreme court’s 88-page judgment has upended two decades of policymaking on trans rights, with police forces, hospitals and other public agencies rapidly rewriting their approaches to trans inclusion.”
Good Law Project:
“The Supreme Court’s decision to exclude trans voices has harmed trans people – and harmed the fairness of their ruling.”
LBC:
“A former civil servant who oversaw the drafting of the UK Equality Act has told LBC the Supreme Court’s recent ruling on the definition of a woman is at odds with the law’s aim.“
OHRH:
“It also makes no mention of intersex people, for instance. Instead, the court proceeds on the unscientific assumption that ‘biological sex’ is a tidy division into which everyone falls.”
We need our governments support!
