JK Rowling Hails UK Court's Definition of 'Woman'

JK Rowling Hails UK Court’s Definition of ‘Woman’

The author J.K. Rowling praised the British high court’s decision on Wednesday with a series of sharp-tongued responses after the body unanimously ruled that a woman is someone who is born biologically female.

“It took three extraordinary, tenacious Scottish women with an army behind them to get this case heard by the Supreme Court and, in winning, they’ve protected the rights of women and girls across the UK. @ForWomanScot, I’m so proud to know you,” Rowling posted on X to her 14.3 million followers after the decision.

Earlier in the day, the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom sided with a case brought by For Woman Scotland and ruled the legal definition of a “woman” is based on a person’s sex at birth.
