  • Summary

  • New Zealand’s new bill is finding support from a women’s sport advocacy group.

    The new bill wants to codify sex-based language, defining a woman as an “adult human biological female” and a man as an “adult human biological male”.

    It comes as Britain’s Highest Court ruled that only biological women —not trans women— meet a definition of a woman under equity laws.

    Save Women’s Sport Australasia NZ Spokeswoman Ro Edge told Francesca Rudkin the bill is a protection for the sex-based rights of women.

    She says all it does is reinforce the urgent need for the likes of Sport New Zealand to prioritise and protect safety and fairness for biological women.

    Edge says they play sports with their bodies, not their identities.
