This is indeed bonkers.

In the UK we have a much more robust set of criteria, based around accent and how many times a week you eat at Greggs

One of my tenuous claims to fame: my brother-in-law coordinates the dive operation for those underwater scenes. TC particularly likes him because they are about the same height

What those parenting books don't tell you is that making your kids' room nice and dark, perfect ambient temperature etc, won't make them sleepy, but it will work on you

Thus increasing their bargaining power

"These are assumed to be self-explanatory and to require no further explanation" 🤯

paragraph 171 of the judgment of the Supreme Court, which reads: "The definition of sex in the EA 2010 makes clear that the concept of sex is binary, a person is either a woman or a man. Persons who share that protected characteristic for the purposes of the group-based rights and protections are persons of the same sex and provisions that refer to protection for women necessarily exclude men. Although the word "biological" does not appear in this definition, the ordinary meaning of those plain and unambiguous words corresponds with the biological characteristics that make an individual a man or a woman. These are assumed to be self-explanatory and to require no further explanation. Men and women are on the face of the definition only differentiated as a grouping by the biology they share with their group."
