The UK's leading music award has announced a policy to abolish the gender classification of the awards that have been awarded to men and women from next year.
It is appropriate to praise achievements regardless of gender.
The organizers of the Brit Awards, the UK's leading music award, have announced a policy to abolish the gender classification of the awards given to outstanding artists by gender from February next year.
Regarding the music award, some artists have called for a change in the system, saying that "people who do not position their gender as either male or female are excluded from the target."
The organizers commented that it is appropriate to honor achievements regardless of gender, and that it is important to aim to be as comprehensive as possible when awarding awards.
Regarding this policy, one of the three major film festivals in the world, the Berlin International Film Festival, will also abolish the "Actor Award" and "Actress Award" of the highest award, and will establish a new "Best Starring Award" etc. It has an indistinguishable attitude.
