For many years, now, females have been losing tasks after daring to express the view that biology is real and important.

Companies and public bodies, recorded by the demands of extremist trans activists, have actually exacted cruel punishments on those expressing completely mainstream - and legal - views on sex and gender.

Inevitably, tribunals have followed a number of these cases. During these, we have actually heard horrifying details of females treated abominably by companies in thrall to advocates who urged and implemented the unlawful adoption of self-ID policies when it pertained to single-sex areas.

We have actually heard of females bullied and avoided for questioning the right of those born male to self-identify into females's areas, from changing spaces to domestic violence sanctuaries.

Equally inevitably, those females capable of resisting have actually been winning legal actions.

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

For every female who has thrived in court, there are numerous more for whom introducing a legal case appeared difficult.

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

Author JK Rowling has actually developed a fund to support females's legal security of their rights

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, referred biology rather than paperwork, a variety of organisations - in both the general public and economic sectors - have released declarations announcing their choices to "consider" the implications for their policies.

This prevalent and negligent complacency stands to cost companies - and taxpayer-funded bodies - dear. The realities are basic. If a service is used on a single sex basis that means biological sex, not individuality.

The law is the law and no further consideration is needed in order for employers to fulfill their obligations under it.

A number of previous legal actions after females were unjustly dismissed or bullied out of jobs for declining to agree with the mantra "trans females are women" were possible thanks to the support of online crowd-funding campaigns. Ms Rowling frequently promoted - and donated to - such charity events.

Now, she's a one-woman crowd-funder, prepared to back the cases of every woman wronged at work for speaking the fact about sex.

The JK Rowling Women's Fund will transform the battlefield when it concerns females discriminated against for their legitimate, reality-based views.

At the heart of commercial tribunals there may be susceptible individuals playing for high stakes but the human expense means absolutely nothing to the insurers financing employers' costs. For them, it's all about the bottom line and the possibility that every female with a case now has access to the finest legal representatives in business will, I suspect, motivate numerous to prompt settlement instead of the embarrassment, and inevitable cost, of more doomed defences.

If one required evidence that ladies's rights require the fiercest security, it came in the reaction to the launch of Ms Rowling's fund.

With tasty pathos, one activist legal representative stated online that the Harry Potter developer had "emerged from the shadows" as the funder of what he referred to as the "anti feminist biology is destiny motion".

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

Other actions were, predictably, more violent in tone.

The continuous tribunal including nurse Sandie Peggie, declaring discrimination and harassment against NHS Fife and trans-identifying medical professional Beth Upton, brought the issue of the method so called "gender important" females had been treated at work to wide attention. This is a case that "cut through" with the public and required some political leaders to resolve a concern they preferred to avoid.

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 understand now, they added, they would not have enacted favour of the SNP's eventually doomed plan to permit anyone to self-identify into the legally-recognised sex of their picking.

But while the Peggie case and the subsequent judgment on the legal meaning of sex by the Supreme Court might have forced a humiliating U-turn by the Labour management on the matter of biological truth, others stay stubbornly devoted to defiance of the law.

Naturally, the Scottish Greens - a fantastic Wodehousian satire of an advanced cell - stay dedicated to the use of single-sex spaces by anyone who feels they come from that sex.

There have actually been recent statements of resistance from trade unions, too. Unison has actually permitted a trans lady to run for a women-only position on its nationwide executive council.

But every act of performative defiance by well-funded trade unions - or taxpayer-funded local authorities and health boards - is another costly legal action in the making.

It ought to not have actually been essential for JK Rowling to ensure to finance the legal costs of females discriminated against for their views on sex and gender. Nobody ought to ever have lost a job, a promo, or an agreement on the basis of their view that sex is immutable and important.

Nor ought to the author have actually felt it required to establish, in 2022, Beira's Place, a women-only support service for victims of sexual violence in the Lothian area.

Ms Rowling's decisions to fund Beira's Place and to finance the legal costs of ladies victimized for thinking in the reality of sex are acts of feminist philanthropy which, in a world not made batty by gender ideology, would have been hailed by our political leaders.

I know that acknowledgment is the last thing on the writer's mind however isn't it downright unusual that, when he broaches the accomplishments of effective Scots, First Minister John Swinney never mentions the assistance Beira's Place has given to numerous ladies?

Money is not the only thing females doing something about it to safeguard their rights need. Ask anyone who has actually been through the tribunal process and they'll inform you that the psychological support of good friends and allies is important.

This comfort will not remain in short supply for those females who get support for their cases from the JK Rowling Women's Fund. The author is part of an international network of campaigners, combating to safeguard females's rights against the needs of trans activists, and calls to action and support do not go unheeded.

Let the country's human resources departments brace themselves. A most impressive plot twist has actually simply been composed.
