Hold a referendum on the definition of woman and man

Closed 38 signatures

What the petition asks

We ask that the Government allows citizens to vote in a referendum that allows them to define in law woman and man.
We are concerned that society is being split apart by different views on how to define woman and man. We think that there is a need to set out clearer definitions, and that we should have the option to vote for a definition.
