The UK’s Supreme Court has ruled that “man”, “woman” and “sex” in the Equality Act 2010 refer to sex, not self-ID or paperwork (gender-recognition certificates). This agreed with our legal interpretation. We have published new guidance and are in the process of updating our publications to reflect the judgment. We are also working to provide answers to the questions we're hearing from supporters and the media. We will publish these as soon as possible.

Sex Matters launches survey

Sex Matters is launching a survey about being gender-critical at work in the UK. Please take the survey and share your experiences

Gender-critical at work? Tell us about it

We have all heard of high-profile cases such as Kathleen Stock, Maya Forstater and Allison Bailey, but we know that many more people are experiencing harassment and discrimination at work for being gender-critical.

To gather evidence about the nature and scale of the problem Sex Matters is launching a survey about being gender-critical at work in the UK.

We would like to hear about your experience – has your employer adopted policies which make the workplace hostile for people with your views? What has been the impact on you? What happens if you raise concerns? What is the attitude of your managers, your trade union and your professional body? Have you been discriminated against or harassed?

The survey takes about 20 minutes – it is mainly multiple-choice questions, but there is also a section where you can tell your story in your own words.

The survey is now closed – thank you to all who responded.
