Over 400 actors and industry professionals have collectively signed an open letter to express solidarity with trans, non-binary, and intersex individuals after a UK Supreme Court ruling defined 'woman' as referring solely to biological sex. This ruling may result in trans women's exclusion from women-only spaces. The letter emphasizes the importance of protecting these communities from discrimination and highlights the film and television industry's role in fostering empathy and challenging societal prejudices, echoing past movements like Me Too and Black Lives Matter.
The ruling has been interpreted to mean that trans women can be excluded from women-only spaces like toilets and changing rooms.
The open letter said: We believe the ruling undermines the lived reality and threatens the safety of trans, non-binary, and intersex people living in the UK.
