The United Kingdom’s Supreme Court delivered a stunning rejection Wednesday of transgenderism, as it declared that transgender individuals who are biological males cannot be treated as women under law.

J.K. Rowling, the author of the famed “Harry Potter” novels, celebrated the decision on X.
“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. @ForWomenScot, I’m so proud to know you,” she wrote.
