I don’t really know what would change whenever you say “women” in the equality act refers to biological. Isn’t it already against the act to discriminate against someone for being trans anyway?
There’s a bunch of women specific legislation in the equality act as well.
For example, it allows for the existence of women only spaces which include gyms, refuges and toilets.
If you say that women is used in its biological sense, you’re saying that trans men can use these spaces but trans women can’t.
However, the ehrc is going full terf and saying that despite the ruling that women is used in its biological sense, they think that all trans people should be prohibited from using some of these spaces.
