We have many questions. How was this allowed to happen?
Where is the condemnation of these neo nazis by our political leaders who previously defamed us women at the Let Women Speak rally in 2023 by confusing us for the neo nazis?

Our political representatives and activist groups continue to use the scare tactic of heightened suicide risk among transgender-identified youth. But here's the thing. *The risk is not borne out by the evidence*.

This week's #gigglevtickle appeal in the Federal Court has again shown that Human Rights Commission is interpreting our SDA to give precedence to males who claim to have a gender identity over the sex-based rights, safety and dignity of women. #auspol

The legal 'idea' that discrimination law can be constructed to coerce us all to 'see' some males as girls and women has serious unintended consequences for girls and women's participation.
Why was Parliament's intention hijacked like this? And, who will fix it?

This fact from The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age yesterday is from NSW before it introduced 'gender self-ID' legislation this week.
Has it been impossible to count male childcare workers in Victoria because of their 'gender self ID' legislation? #safeguarding #childsexualabuse #auspol

Australia fell prey to the gender medical industry under the Abbott, Turnbull and Morrison governments which repeatedly failed to understand the importance of the NHMRC's role at the helm of our Australian health system governance keeping it evidence-based. Aus doctors are in an untenable position.
