In the United Kingdom, the Daily Telegraph reports that the National Health Service’s gender clinic allegedly discouraged a former chief executive from applying for a senior leadership position because she believes biological sex is immutable.

The clinic is the main facility in the U.K. treating young people with gender dysphoria. You may recall a lawsuit filed by a former patient, Keira Bell, after she de-transitioned in her early 20s. In 2020, the high court ruled in Bell’s favor but later overturned the decision. While transgender individuals deserve equal rights and respect, it isn’t possible to change one’s sex; people can only change their gender expression (for example, their outward appearance).
