Chris Mason: Gender debate has changed but it’s not over yet

In nearly 25 years in daily journalism, I have never known another issue quite like it.
The arguments over sex and gender, trans and women’s rights have a passion, an anger and often a toxicity on both sides greater in their intensity than those over the Iraq war two decades ago, or Brexit in more recent years.
The abuse and vitriol that fly into my inbox every time I report on it are really quite something.
Last week’s decision by the Supreme Court was a landmark moment in this debate, providing the prism through which arguments will now be conducted.
But it won’t mark an end to those arguments, as a debate in the Commons on Tuesday evening proved.
