    I feel this section heading is the pertinent one:

    How did we get here?

    Just fucking treat people equally with respect and legislate on that basis. Are you a person: yes. Fine then you should be treated with respect. Job done.

      This ruling doesn’t change that.

      the worry is what comes next.

    Have the terfs or the courts made any clarification (or even acknowledged) the 0.02%–0.05% of people born intersex? Luck of the draw on how the doctor was feeling on your birthday I guess.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
