Gendering space: Single-sex provision and equality law

In episode one, Dr Flora Renz (University of Kent) talks to Dr Jessica Smith (King's College London) about the legal regulation of single-sex services and spaces. How does equality law manage gender-specific sites? Is there a distinction between what law formally provides, and how it is working out on the ground? How would they operate in conditions of decertification, where sex/gender no longer form components of legal personhood?
