Women who transitioned decades ago feel their safety and security has suddenly been removed
Last week’s supreme court ruling sent shock waves through the UK’s trans community.
The unanimous judgment said the legal definition of a woman in the Equality Act 2010 did not include transgender women who hold gender recognition certificates (GRCs).
That feeling was compounded when Kishwer Falkner, the chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission, which is preparing new statutory guidance, said the judgment meant only biological women could use single-sex changing rooms and toilets.

What do you mean “what do you mean by woman”? The women who are the focus of this article and this comment thread.
Well it depends on the definition, which is the whole point of the article i.e. was defined by the UK supreme court as a biological female. So by that definition, who is forcing a woman to go into a man’s bathroom?
