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.

SEEN in Journalism

Launched in March 2024 as a sex equality and equity network for reporters, columnists, investigative journalists, producers, editors and content-makers across platforms, who seek to restore accuracy and impartiality to the media coverage of sex and gender.

Aims to:

  • report the sex and gender debate truthfully and fairly
  • challenge misrepresentation and myth
  • uphold protections related to sex set out in the Equality Act 2010.

Committed to the protected belief that sex is binary and immutable, and to the belief that journalists have the right to report this issue with integrity and honesty, upholding the first principles of our profession, without suffering disbenefit or loss.
