my unhelpful comment is there's "preantepenultimate" and "propreantepenultimate", at least when you're talking about syllables

A quick search for "windstillness" found a few camelcased, poetic hits and one use on Wiktionary... to translate ON logn. So nah, probably!

There's certainly not a common equivalent, but there is the (nearly-dead?) "lown" (rhymes with town) meaning the same thing and from the same Old Norse source, so it's cheating anyway! I'm reminded of German "windstill" too - I wonder if any English speaker would have a compound like this

"deals with" in the sense that they literally say in the judgement they won't explain the definitions

So “innate biology” matters when it allows trans exclusion, but if relying on “innate biology” wouldn’t let you exclude trans people social and medical transition matters more. Utterly brilliant mental gymnastics.

Alternative facilities may have been provided.
Warning: these toilets do not comply with Lord Hodge's guidelines and may contain reality.

Remember: a toilet is not just a space. It is a stage for ideological performance. Flush accordingly.

If another person's presence in this lavatory compromises your ontology, do not panic. Whisper "mulier veritas" three times and exit the toilet. Notify a structural realist at the earliest opportunity.

Please have at least two supporting types of evidence to hand, e.g. chromosomal analysis, gonadal dissection report.

If in doubt, hold it in.

1. Are you somebody Lord Hodge would personally recognise as a woman?
2. Have you rid yourself of any same-sex desire? (Consult Church of Scotland guidelines, Special Commission report, 2011)
3. Can you validate your biological sex?
