A UK government minister has announced a ban on trans individuals using restrooms that align with their gender identity, following a Supreme Court ruling that defines “woman” and “sex” as referring only to biological categories. The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) stated that this ruling implies trans women cannot access women’s facilities, raising concerns about safety and discrimination. Critics, including trans rights advocates and political leaders, argue that this policy could lead to enforcement issues and heightened anxiety for both trans and cisgender individuals.
