The ruling means that transgender women who hold a Gender Recognition Certificate (GRC) will no longer be legally considered women, while the term “sex” in the Act will now refer only to biological sex or sex assigned at birth. Representatives from women's rights group For Women Scotland (FWS), which is leading the legal action against the Scottish Government, arguing that gender-based protections should only apply to those born female, said everyone knows what gender is and that it cannot be changed, and hoped that people would now be able to come back to that reality.
