Original Note:
This is an incorrect interpretation of the protected characteristic of sex in the Equality Act 2010, where “woman” is defined as a “female of any age”. To be considered female for the Act a biological male needs a gender recognition certificate. Few trans women have one. https://hansard.parliament.uk/commons/2023-12-06/debates/E7306EC2-EFCB-4331-BD82-F01FDF67CCBF/GenderRecognition
