    “[Lesbians] are united by one or more common features … mainly biology,” Dr Blake said.

    Ughhh we’re about to witness another legal argument that boils down to “what is a woman” while pretending it’s not just about whether they’re cis–passing. If they really want to draw this line, the butch cis lesbians are in for a rude shock when accusations of transness come their way.

    The courts heard it because a bunch of shitty old bigots won’t stop screeching it…

    The “court hears” all types of crazy shit

      The title was taken from the recommendation, and yes that’s how courts work

    Sounds like the Lesbian Action Group is lagging behind the times.
