UK: Woman who had sex change wins legal right to pension at 60

By Alliance Alert

ADVERTISEMENTS
Guardian: "A woman who had a sex-change operation 10 years ago has won her battle to receive a pension from the age of 60. Christine Timbrell was born Christopher Timbrell in 1941, but had surgery to change her gender in 2000. ... Lord Justice Aikens, giving the ruling of the three appeal judges, said that before the Gender Recognition Act, English law had no way of dealing with a person who had changed gender, meaning 'once a man, always a man'. But he said that a lack of legal framework to allow the law to recognise gender change and obtain a pension was discrimination."
