For years, now, ladies have actually been losing jobs after daring to reveal the view that biology is real and essential.


Companies and public bodies, captured by the demands of extremist trans activists, have actually exacted terrible penalties on those expressing perfectly mainstream - and legal - views on sex and gender.


Inevitably, tribunals have actually followed a number of these cases. During these, we've heard scary details of females dealt with abominably by companies in thrall to advocates who urged and imposed the unlawful adoption of self-ID policies when it came to single-sex spaces.


We've heard of females bullied and avoided for questioning the right of those born male to self-identify into ladies's areas, from altering spaces to domestic violence havens.

Equally undoubtedly, those ladies efficient in resisting have been winning legal actions.


But even a rock strong case does not make it simple to retaliate. Good attorneys are expensive and the procedure is draining, both physically and mentally.


For every female who has thrived in court, there are a lot more for whom launching a legal case seemed difficult.

The establishment by the author and philanthropist JK Rowling of a fund to support females's legal defense of their rights immediately removes any financial barriers to action for those with viable cases.

The intervention of Ms Rowling should, today, be concentrating minds in human resources departments throughout the nation.


Since the Supreme Court ruled, last month, that sex, in law, was a matter of biology instead of documents, a number of organisations - in both the general public and economic sectors - have actually issued declarations revealing their decisions to "consider" the ramifications for their policies.


This widespread and careless complacency stands to cost companies - and taxpayer-funded bodies - dear. The facts are basic. If a service is used on a single sex basis that means biological sex, not individual identity.


The law is the law and no additional factor to consider is required in order for companies to fulfill their obligations under it.


A number of past legal actions after ladies were unfairly dismissed or bullied out of tasks for declining to agree with the mantra "trans females are women" were possible thanks to the of online crowd-funding projects. Ms Rowling often promoted - and contributed to - such fundraisers.


Now, she's a one-woman crowd-funder, all set to back the cases of every lady mistreated at work for speaking the truth about sex.


The JK Rowling Women's Fund will change the battleground when it concerns females victimized for their legitimate, reality-based views.


At the heart of commercial tribunals there might be susceptible people betting high stakes but the human expense suggests absolutely nothing to the insurers financing employers' costs. For them, it's all about the bottom line and the prospect that every woman with a case now has access to the very best lawyers in the business will, I think, encourage numerous to urge settlement instead of the humiliation, and inevitable cost, of more doomed defences.


If one required proof that ladies's rights are in requirement of the fiercest defense, it was available in the action to the launch of Ms Rowling's fund.


With delicious pathos, one activist attorney stated online that the Harry Potter developer had "emerged from the shadows" as the funder of what he described as the "anti feminist biology is fate motion".


Ms Rowling has never ever been in the shadows when it pertains to her views on women's rights, has she?

Other reactions were, predictably, more violent in tone.


The ongoing tribunal including nurse Sandie Peggie, declaring discrimination and harassment versus NHS Fife and trans-identifying medical professional Beth Upton, brought the problem of the method so called "gender critical" females had been treated at work to wide attention. This is a case that "cut through" with the public and required some politicians to deal with a problem they preferred to prevent.


Scottish Labour's leader Anas Sarwar and his deputy, Jackie Baillie, announced their support for Ms Peggie and declared their belief in the value of biological sex.


If they 'd known what they know now, they included, they would not have actually enacted favour of the SNP's ultimately doomed plan to enable anyone to self-identify into the legally-recognised sex of their choosing.


But while the Peggie case and the subsequent judgment on the legal meaning of sex by the Supreme Court might have forced an embarrassing U-turn by the Labour leadership on the matter of biological truth, others remain stubbornly committed to defiance of the law.


Naturally, the Scottish Greens - a fantastic Wodehousian satire of a revolutionary cell - remain committed to using single-sex spaces by anyone who feels they belong to that sex.


There have been current declarations of resistance from trade unions, too. Unison has allowed a trans female to run for a women-only position on its nationwide executive council.
