Will the Supreme Court protect Women's Rights?

I sincerely hope so!

I despair of Gransnet. Are there really only two people here who care about the basic rights of women?

I care! I’m horrified by the whole trumpian thing.

You are right - far too few care, they would rather respond to silly, superficial comments. Just my opinion. Also fed-up with GN. If only everyone was forced to give their names instead of hiding behind pseudonyms, maybe the content would be better?

I didn’t know about this so read the link and hope the Scottish Supreme Court will do the right thing and protect women’s rights.

It’up to women themselves to set and know their boundaries, I’m not a silly woman who puts up with bad behaviour..All women are not victims. I don't believe in women only lists for jobs, it should be the right person, I do believe in safe spaces for women, toilets and hospitals and changing rooms, should not be shared by men, if you have a penis don’t use a woman's space even if you try to be a woman..its just common sense which seems to be severely lacking by the few. Men that groom and rape young vulnerable girls, i wish they could be put to sleep but they cant so put them away for ever.let them work for their keep as well.

I care but I don’t feel the need to post my views online. Just by responding you Stepgran I feel I’m virtue signalling.

Ahem.

As I had a rant recently about others expecting everyone to have lots of time to deal with Politics, in the same way, most GNetters as far as I know are not glued to GN on the whole, either.

I hope they support the rights. fwiw.

As horrifying as the subject is, I found the article intriguing where it stated,

Data Collection: Breaking down statistics by certified sex, not biological sex, will seriously distort or our understanding of medical phenomena.

To me, this means that historical statistics could report that there was an enormous surge of woman growing male body parts in the year 2025.

I don't really understand the comment about people on GN not caring about women's rights, they are discussed frequently. There is a current thread on single sex spaces. What do you mean?

Not all of us are glued to Granset all day.

I refuse to respond to new posters who come on here to goad.

I rarely, if ever, post on the politics or religion forums .

Generally Scottish news seems fairly low priority in rUK (and on Gransnet). The judgement will have repercussions throughout the UK whether it supports the Scottish government or not, which is why l thought it may be of interest outwith Scotland

It's the UK Supreme court that is ruling.

No, Stepgranonabroomstick, there are probably 50,000 people - not just two - both men and women, (even LGBTQ+) in many countries all over the world, here on Gransnet, who care about women's rights. 💡

Every human has had a woman in their life.

The judgement is imminent.

I think it’s a sad day when women need a judgement from the High Court to define what they are…

It's the Scottish Government that seems to need it, not women

The argument seems to be that if a person has a GRC stating that they are a woman then they have access to all safe places of women.
A GRC can be used to say you have changed your sex.
No certificate can't change a man into a woman. It's biologically impossible .

I agree. Also, I would expect the majority to be interested in everyone's basic rights but not necessarily be prepared to put their opinions on GN and get mown down by the extremists on here.

This link explains why the case has reached the UK Supreme court and the implications of any judgement

It's far more than safe spaces for women

My tablet is denying access to that site. I think that may well tell me all I want to know about the article.

Could you name the extremists PN?

You must have missed the numerous threads here on GN over the last couple of years where this issue has been discussed Stepgranonabroomstick.

There is one running at the moment on this forum about single sex spaces, but I don't recall seeing you there.
