UK Supreme Court ruling defines woman as someone born biologically female, excludes transgenders

Good news! Is common sense finally returning?

Maybe no more penises in girl's and women's shower rooms in the UK? What about castrated men with surgical vagina and breasts?

"... Five judges on the court ruled that the U.K. Equality Act means transgenders who identify as a woman will not be allowed in some single-sex spaces, such as changing rooms and homeless shelters. ...

However, Justice Patrick Hodge said the ruling “does not remove protection from trans people,” who are “protected from discrimination on the ground of gender reassignment.” ..."

"The Supreme Court unanimously allows the appeal. It holds that the terms “man”, “woman” and “sex” in the EA 2010 [Equality Act 2010] refer to biological sex. Lord Hodge, Lady Rose and Lady Simler give a joint judgment, with which the other Justices agree."

Caveat: I am not familiar with the case nor ruling.
