The UK Knows What A Woman Is — When Will Democrats Figure It Out?

Each era is granted its mass hysteria. Granted, a dancing plague is mild compared to “convincing young girls to cut off healthy body parts” — but signs point to reality reasserting itself.

Look no further than a recent judgment from Britain’s Supreme Court, ruling that men who self-identify as “trans women” are not to be legally regarded as women. The court “holds that the terms ‘man,’ ‘woman’ and ‘sex’ in the EA 2010 refer to biological sex,” reads their press summary.

Males with 5ARD are not female.
Trans-identified people remain protected under UK law.
The Supreme Court has confirmed that trans-identified men are not entitled to women’s sex-based rights.

The ruling is hardly a wholesale repudiation of the nonsensical logic which underpins transgender theory. The court draws a distinction between sex and gender, tacitly claiming the latter can be “reassigned” via surgery, and acknowledges “transsexual people” as a protected class.

“On the one hand, women have historically suffered from discrimination in our society and since 1975 have been given statutory protection against discrimination on the ground of sex,” reads the judgment. “On the other hand, the trans community is both historically and currently a vulnerable community.”

Regardless, even the obvious assertion that “men are not women” would have been difficult to eke out of a judiciary during the height of transgender mania.

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson infamously claimed she could not define the word “woman” in her confirmation hearing.

“Can I provide a definition? No, I can’t,” said Jackson in response to Republican Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn. “Not in this context, I’m not a biologist.” Britain’s Supreme Court will be stunned and pleased to know they’ve acquired a bachelor’s degree in biology overnight. As will the billions of common-sense human beings who are capable of drawing this fundamental distinction.

Such common-sense people are fed up.

One of Donald Trump’s most effective campaign ads during his 2024 presidential run spoke to this fatigue: “Kamala is for they/them, President Trump is for you.” Some Democrats, like Democratic Gov. of California Gavin Newsom, appear to be distancing themselves from the contentious issue. Others employ a higher-risk strategy in response to the American people: closing their eyes and covering their ears and whistling really loudly.

Transgenderism was supposed to be the next great frontier of civil rights. It has amounted to nothing more than a puzzling historical footnote with a tragic human cost.
