LONDON, ENGLAND - APRIL 16: Susan Smith (L) and Marion Calder, directors of 'For Women Scotland' speak to the media outside the Supreme Court on April 16, 2025 in London, England. The Supreme Court today ruled unanimously that "the terms 'woman' and 'sex' in the Equality Act 2010 refer to a biological woman and biological sex," in response to a long-running legal dispute between the activist group 'For Women Scotland' and the Scottish government over whether trans people with gender recognition certificates (GRC) identifying their gender as female were considered as having the sex of a woman. For Women Scotland had argued that sex-based protections should only apply to people born female. (Photo by Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)
