For years, now, females have been losing tasks after bold to express the view that biology is genuine and crucial.


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

Inevitably, tribunals have actually followed a variety of these cases. During these, we've heard horrifying details of ladies treated abominably by companies in thrall to advocates who advised and enforced the prohibited adoption of self-ID policies when it concerned single-sex spaces.


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


Equally inevitably, those women efficient in fighting back have actually been winning legal actions.


But even a rock strong case does not make it easy to retaliate. Good lawyers are costly and the procedure is draining pipes, both physically and emotionally.


For every single woman who has triumphed in court, there are a lot more for whom launching a legal case appeared difficult.


The establishment by the author and philanthropist JK Rowling of a fund to support women's legal security of their rights immediately eliminates any financial barriers to action for those with feasible cases.

The intervention of Ms Rowling should, right now, 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 rather than documentation, a number of organisations - in both the general public and economic sectors - have actually issued statements announcing their decisions to "think about" the ramifications for their policies.


This widespread and reckless complacency stands to cost business - and taxpayer-funded bodies - dear. The truths 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 additional consideration is required in order for employers to meet their commitments under it.


A number of past legal actions after women were unjustly dismissed or bullied out of tasks for refusing to agree with the mantra "trans women are females" were possible thanks to the support of online crowd-funding projects. Ms Rowling regularly promoted - and donated to - such fundraising events.


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


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


At the heart of industrial tribunals there may be vulnerable people betting high stakes but the human cost suggests nothing to the insurance providers financing employers' expenses. For them, it's all about the bottom line and the prospect that every female with a case now has access to the finest lawyers in business will, I suspect, encourage many to urge settlement rather than the humiliation, and inescapable expense, of more doomed defences.


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

With tasty pathos, one activist attorney declared 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 fate motion".


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


Other responses were, predictably, more violent in tone.


The ongoing tribunal involving nurse Sandie Peggie, claiming discrimination and harassment versus NHS Fife and trans-identifying doctor Beth Upton, brought the concern of the method so called "gender crucial" women had actually been dealt with at work to large attention. This is a case that "cut through" with the public and forced some political leaders to resolve a problem they chose to avoid.


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


If they 'd known what they understand now, they added, they would not have actually voted in 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 ruling on the legal significance of sex by the Supreme Court may have forced an embarrassing U-turn by the Labour leadership on the matter of biological truth, others devoted to defiance of the law.


Naturally, the Scottish Greens - a terrific Wodehousian satire of an advanced cell - stay dedicated to making use of single-sex areas by anyone who feels they belong to that sex.


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


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


It needs to not have actually been required for JK Rowling to ensure to finance the legal expenses of women discriminated against for their views on sex and gender. Nobody needs to ever have lost a task, a promo, or a contract on the basis of their view that sex is immutable and essential.


Nor must the novelist have actually felt it essential to develop, in 2022, Beira's Place, a women-only support service for victims of sexual violence in the Lothian location.


Ms Rowling's decisions to money Beira's Place and to finance the legal expenses of women discriminated versus for believing 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 politicians.


I understand that recognition is the last thing on the author's mind but isn't it downright odd that, when he talks of the achievements of effective Scots, First Minister John Swinney never discusses the support Beira's Place has provided to hundreds of women?


Money is not the only thing ladies acting to safeguard their rights require. Ask anyone who has been through the tribunal procedure and they'll inform you that the psychological assistance of pals and allies is necessary.

This comfort will not be in short supply for those females who get backing for their cases from the JK Rowling Women's Fund. The author belongs to a worldwide network of advocates, battling to secure women's rights against the demands of trans activists, and calls to action and assistance do not go unheeded.


Let the nation's personnels departments brace themselves. A most exceptional plot twist has actually simply been composed.
