I know it's a hot topic in both the real world, and online, but I suspect not a huge shock to those learned individuals. I doubt the Scottish Government will be appealing, I suspect Swinney keen to put it behind the SNP. A sad day for trans women. I'm sure they, and their allies, will campaign on to try to persuade the UK government to amend the various acts next.

Edit: locking this post to stop fly-bys. As a mod I don't want to see the discourse descend further than what has already been posted

The joy is I don't have to guess.

Yeah, you did say

I wouldn't see any problems with having to prove your sex to join a gym or the likes

Right, and for every other sex-segregated space that is regularly brought up in these discussions and which doesn't require registration beforehand? What about the bathrooms at a restaurant? I don't need a membership to go to the local swimming pool. If I get arrested I'm not likely to have my birth certificate on me.
