Now BBC gives a kicking to stars of women's football

THE SUFFRAGETTES must be turning in their graves at the state of modern British womanhood, or rather its perception by everyone else. Right now, we're holding our breath to see whether the judges of the Supreme Court can actually define a woman.

That's right, a woman. Not quantum physics, the origins of the universe. But a woman.

Something a toddler can do. So how have we got here? It's thanks to the Scottish Government's ludicrous insistence that biological men (the only type of men, you might well think) should be treated as women by public institutions including public health bodies if they so desire.

The SNP-run Government, which is clearly bonkers, believes a person's sex is determined not biologically at birth but by a Gender Recognition Certificate a piece of paper that ignores the very obvious reality dangling (or not dangling) between one's legs.

Ergo, by merely "feeling" like the opposite sex, a man can have access to spaces that women spent decades fighting for. Campaigning gender-critical groups such as For Women Scotland (supported by JK Rowling) disagree and have sought a judicial review.

The Scottish Government claims this is all vital for the sake of gender equality.

But what is equal about a woman being forced to share a prison cell with a man, even a twice-convicted rapist, or having to accept men into previously safe spaces, such domestic or sexual violence shelters, or rape services? as
