• 28 March 2022: @NRL is a high impact, collision sport. Why are they allowing male players to have a choice to play in the female category? World Rugby determined an increased 20-30% risk of serious injury to females playing against males. @Scienceofsport https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/nrl/article-10658721/NRL-transgender-athlete-whos-set-compete-womens-competition.html
• 28 March 2022: Congratulations on putting your hand up @keogh1992x ! More women in parliament, more women in government - at all levels and across the political spectrum.
• 23 March 2022: My unwavering dedication to the right of women and girls in sport should speak for itself. It is important to have more women in parliament, more women in government - across the political spectrum - so our voices are heard.
• 23 March 2022: As they say Tea, don’t feed the mogwais after midnight, but know I am a woman first and like you, these issues are as real for me as all they are for all women.

• 18 March 2022: But where is her condemnation for the allegations of Labor women bullying Labor women over recent days? If the place of women in the workplace is ever going to change, it needs to start with the actions of women. #BeginAgain2022 https://www.theaustralian.com.au/nation/politics/penny-wong-to-attend-labor-fundraiser-in-northern-territory-on-day-of-kimberley-kitchings-funeral/news-story/b47fcdad9acf4642472a9d222c7aee54

• 11 March 2022: I fight for the right of women and girls to have a dedicated female sports category. I do not seek to “ban” anyone. And I welcome an opportunity to be a part of the democratic process, as we need more women in parliament, and more women in government. https://www.news.com.au/national/federal-election/biologicalsex-campaigner-katherine-deves-bid-for-key-seat/news-story/f4d0e9613a1e3474ebbce76a92f3c37f

• 9 March 2022: Male gender non-conforming student remains at all boys school. The boys should be commended for voting to accept “Alice” (and cue a predictable cohort of boys following suit). The issue would be if “Alice” tried to enrol at an all-girls school. https://www.theaustralian.com.au/nation/elite-boysonly-school-allows-trans-student/news-story/d8ba0edf55183caa29efc87737d63c6b

• 27 February 2022: I have no words for this. Women and girls are frequently the forgotten casualties of war. Rape is a weapon of war. Those who support this trade in human misery and exploitation ought to hang their heads in shame. https://twitter.com/uracontra_/status/1497349041411215360

• 23 February 2022: Devastating read by @jkalbrechtsen on @NicolleFlint leaving federal parliament. Female MPs should not be subjected to such abuse. Those making threats must be held to account. It is intolerable that this is regarded simply as a hazard of the job. https://www.theaustralian.com.au/commentary/nicolle-flints-departure-a-reminder-its-up-to-us-to-call-out-misogynist-bullies/news-story/008c497951f116df156662b4d5154a3f
• 16 January 2022: Unbelievable footage from the giant underwater Tongan volcano eruption today, once in a millenia event, the incredible sonic boom heard over 1000km away. Tongan internet via an underwater cable from Fiji, so news is scarce about the impact on the Tongan people. https://twitter.com/drchriscombs/status/1482364538234277888
• 16 January 2022: Good grief, this hysterical conflation of defending women’s rights with “victimising” a group of males!
• 16 January 2022: Even one is a problem
• 16 January 2022: Half of all males with trans identities are sex offenders, compared with less than 20% for the rest of male estate. That should tell you something.
• 16 January 2022: I am not “victimising” anyone. My position prevents women from being further victimised.
• 15 January 2022: What about the ones who are violent, who haven’t got convictions? Where do they go? Or do we just take the risk they will behave?
• 15 January 2022: Of course males with sex convictions should not be in with women, nor should any male. Prisons must be single sex, keep it simple.
• 15 January 2022: https://kpssinfo.org/males-in-womens-prisons/
• 15 January 2022: https://kpssinfo.org/stories-from-women-in-prison/
• 15 January 2022: Even one woman is too many. You appear to be an intelligent T, successful woman Frances, but you’re arguing for something when you appear not to have all your opposition’s facts to hand. There are credible, well researched resources out there for our side, why not have a look?
• 15 January 2022: This is the best data available, because MOJ failed to collect statistics and fail to record those with GRCs. So yes it is dozens. More than enough for a protected unit of their own. https://committees.parliament.uk/writtenevidence/18973/pdf/
• 15 January 2022: Yes they have, there are testimonies of this happening. How do you think Karen White happened? Are you really not across this? If you are going to talk publicly on an issue you should at least know the basics of your opposition’s evidence.
• 15 January 2022: We are not speaking French. We are speaking English. And it is ridiculous to suggest pronouns are not based on biological sex. Words have meaning and they are tied to our reality.
• 15 January 2022: They can put them all in together, there are over 100 in the UK prison estate. And frankly, the imposition should not be placed on women. It is not women’s burden to bear, placing them in with women is not the answer. Find another solution.
• 15 January 2022: What about women locked in a tiny cell for hours every day with a male? What about them? No escape for them!
• 15 January 2022: You really aren’t aware of the dozens of men, hundreds in the US, placed in women’s prisons? My sympathy and empathy is with women, b/c no one has “given a stuff” about them in any of the drafting of these policies.
• 15 January 2022: And b/c it is “acceptance without exception” we must accept a person’s trans identity as soon as they announce it, how do we tell who is safe? In any case, the presence of a male body (no matter self declared identity) is triggering for some women, why don’t they matter?
• 15 January 2022: Are you not aware that the argument is about male offenders exploiting this loophole? Are you really not across the numbers? Even one violent male placed in with women has the capacity to do harm to many women. Lots of testimonies of men declaring “trans” to gain access.
• 15 January 2022: I didn’t say “solitary confinement”. I said “protected unit”, which should be located in the male estate. Why should women be put at risk and sacrifice their rights to protect the mental health of male offenders? Women are not a support service for males.
• 15 January 2022: #keepprisonssinglesex https://kpssinfo.org/r-fdj-v-ssj-2001-the-judicial-review/
• 15 January 2022: They had their chance to get it right, they failed, & demonstrated appalling contempt for the women in the process, including those trying to raise awareness. The judgment clearly argues female prisoners are props to validate the experience of male prisoners with trans identity.
• 15 January 2022: No, case-by-case failed. Policies must be unequivocal - prisons must be single sex. Incarcerated women are entitled to protection, safety, dignity and privacy while in the custody of the state. Locking them in with males is in direct conflict with this.
• 15 January 2022: There are quite a few youth movements through 20thC history that remind me of this movement, indoctrinate the children, alienate parents, demonise dissenters, it’s a familiar tactical formula. This is our generation’s cultural revolution, and we all know how they end.
• 15 January 2022: And, he also said it should be a “case-by-case” basis, which is where we are now, and look at how that’s worked out. #keepprisonssinglesex
• 15 January 2022: This is a black and white issue. If there are males with a trans identity who are facing incarceration that might be at risk in prison, the solution is to house them in a protected unit in the male estate. Prisons must be single sex. No compromise.
• 15 January 2022: Announcing pronouns shows the world you are in allegiance with a contemptuous, controversial ideology.
• 15 January 2022: I said he holds the position that male rapists have the right to be locked in women’s prisons. He did not vote in favour of the amendment, it is very clear he supports policies that allow male rapists to be locked in with vulnerable women. He said it. Then he told us to be quiet.
• 15 January 2022: The Trans Movement Is Not About Rights Anymore: It's about a cultural revolution and the abolition of biological sex. @sullydish https://andrewsullivan.substack.com/p/the-trans-movement-is-not-about-rights-67e?s=09&fbclid=IwAR0LGunPdROtOIWvzLrFxH3cueNb0YC5uMBmV9l-K0LQTvV7YAxD3qNO01s
• 15 January 2022: This is happening in Australia https://twitter.com/jude90293402/status/1482203641063034880
• 15 January 2022: “Why r trans activists allowed to target the jobs of people who simply & politely disagree with them?” Why indeed? “This is a filthy game. It is designed to spread fear & intimidate educated, well-informed people into silence.” @TheCriticMag @JeanHatchet https://thecritic.co.uk/the-fear-and-the-loathing/
• 15 January 2022: Are you defending his position? That male rapists have the right to be locked in women’s prisons? What is your position? Your demonstrative allegiance to the ideology by pronouns in bio foreshadows what your answer will be.
• 15 January 2022: “Come on bug-a-lugs, get a wriggle on!” when we were being told to hurry up
• 15 January 2022: We use it in Australia
• 15 January 2022: So why aren’t you including WOMEN by saying WOMEN?

• 14 January 2022: Australian government is running a survey on violence against women and children. But of course, it’s not, because males with trans identities are included and the draft is riddled with ridiculous ideological language. https://engage.dss.gov.au/draft-national-plan-to-end-violence-against-women-and-children-2022-2032/draft-national-plan-to-end-violence-against-women-and-children-2022-2032-document/ pic.twitter.com/qHIQTGwHww

• 12 January 2022: Then the rules are faulty. Humans cannot change sec, and males and females form two entirely different categories of human. This is neither complicated, or difficult. https://twitter.com/mwinberg_/status/1481298034722025472

• 11 January 2022: Arbiter of all things male violence, Paddick, now tells us what we “should” be talking about. What’s next, telling us that the feelings of violent men are more important than the safety and dignity of traumatised women detained at the pleasure of the government he represents? https://twitter.com/brianpaddick/status/1480834665883873281
• 11 January 2022: No avoiding discussion of law, politics and history in my house! Lots of people have commented on how nice the t-shirts are and ask where we got them, I smile and recommend they look up the @StandingforXX website,

• 11 January 2022: Dr Harper’s contribution. One of the eight runners themselves, and on the IOC panel - so presenting “research” about themselves, to themselves, for the benefit of themselves. A classic of conflict of interest.
• 11 January 2022: They have a program extension to install on Google Chrome called “Shinigami Eyes”, if you are a TRA your account is green, if you are on the side of reality and women’s rights, it is red. A case was brought against it in Norway as a human rights violation. https://edri.org/our-work/efn-reports-shingami-eyes-to-the-norwegian-dpa/
• 11 January 2022: What is more astounding that Kirsti (if Kirsti’s claims are to be believed) was a “key stakeholder” for Sport Australia trans guidelines, “expert witness” to CAS & consulted to IOC. Or maybe not so astounding, we all know how these consultation processes regarding trans are run!
• 10 January 2022: I do not understand how Kirsti thinks it helps their argument to personally attack me, @cathydevine56 @Martina @rosey_nz @FondOfBeetles . Could it be that they are getting more desperate because TRAs are losing the sports argument in the “hearts and minds” of the people? pic.twitter.com/WX9nMHo1si
• 10 January 2022: I would give a lot to watch a debate between you and our friend Kirsti. Although it would be a supreme waste of your valuable time.
• 10 January 2022: I believe they have political aspirations. First with New Liberals party (which is a new, fringe party in Australia), but in a recent podcast they said they wanted to run as an independent.
• 10 January 2022: It’s always helpful when they do the work for us.
• 10 January 2022: Horrifying that any woman has to be in a confined space with any of these male predators. That the state has locked vulnerable women in with them, is a human rights scandal. #keepprisonssinglesex https://twitter.com/taniaamarshall/status/1480505686949826561
• 10 January 2022: Their Twitter feed would do that work for us I suspect!
• 10 January 2022: It’s a costly exercise to run as an independent, you’d need serious benefactors and fundraising. Good luck with that to Kirsti. Vascillates between Nationals and Labour stronghold out there, I doubt an Indy would get up.
• 10 January 2022: Jealousy does terrible things to people 😉
• 10 January 2022: Kirsti is hoping to run for public office this year, as an independent in NSW.

• 10 January 2022: You only need to look at Henig to see they have doped T, whether they are doing it now or not. Gender identity is an ideology, the term was coined by John Money several decades ago. Believing that you have a special gender essence is akin to a neo-religion.
• 10 January 2022: I do not believe in gender identity ideology and I recognise sex, not gender. What myths? The problem here is that we have a male and a female who has the benefit of testosterone unfairly taking space in the women’s category. Where they place is irrelevant.
• 10 January 2022: There is no way Henig has had a bilateral mastectomy without first being on T. They hand it out like confetti in the US.
• 10 January 2022: Where are the women? What a mockery this is making of the female sports category! Shame on them. #PennCheats
• 10 January 2022: Maybe it’s time for a transgender category? Sex irrelevant. Leave the women alone! And Henig is kidding themselves if they really think we believe they haven’t gone on the T. #PennCheats #SaveWomensSports https://twitter.com/claytravis/status/1479957588431286278

• 9 January 2022: I think it’s deliberate. Look at Laurel. Now Lia is to win by a little bit but not by much. Then they put forward the the argument that there isn’t a performance advantage. They are pitting mediocre against elite, and using that to support their position.
• 9 January 2022: 😂
• 9 January 2022: Why do you Yanks make it all so difficult?
• 9 January 2022: Yes, that is a record crowd for us, ergo growing. Soccer is also not the most popular sport in Australia, and we have a small, disparate population, so keep it in context.
• 8 January 2022: More record crowds. If they build, they will come, indeed Liam. https://www.newcastleherald.com.au/story/7532788/matildas-draw-1-1-with-usa-in-front-of-record-newcastle-crowd/

• 8 January 2022: I’m way more cynical than you, Jim.
• 8 January 2022: Then you are setting women up for failure. If you have more opportunity to generate revenue, of course you will generate more revenue.
• 8 January 2022: When you have more airtime, more teams, more games, more media coverage of course more people can watch, there is exponentially more opportunity to watch.
• 8 January 2022: As long as the men’s category remains pristine, they don’t care
• 8 January 2022: Lia pulls a Laurel. This is strategic. Laurel couldn’t seen to win. Now Lia can win, but not by a lot and only at last minute.
• 8 January 2022: Sports have historically discriminated against women, then you turn around and blame us for asking for a fair share? Why should men’s sport get the lion’s share of it all?
• 8 January 2022: I am talking about ALL sports, not just tennis. Male sports, from grassroots to elite, get the most funding, resources, scholarships, airtime, media coverage etc. Also a history of men’s sport being the only category, or the default. So of course they generate the most revenue.

• 8 January 2022: Pain and prejudice continues for women in the fight for equality, and specifically the provision of medical care. An extensive Ontarian review of surgical outcomes for women (1.3M) reveals they are 32% more likely to die at the hands of a surgeon if he is male.

• 8 January 2022: What men are “subsidising” the women? What a ridiculous argument! When women’s sport get proper coverage and resources, it gets just as much fan base support than the men’s category. Your argument is originating from a point that men’s sport is better funded b/c

• 9 December 2021: Context is key. There was a survey done here that MRAs love to tout that say 1 in 3 DV victims are men. Intensity, severity and frequency were not considered, and DV not defined. Hence you had men who claimed they were victims because “she spent money on shopping/gambling”…

• 8 December 2021: Genius isn’t it? Let’s destroy child safeguarding, women’s boundaries while being applauded as “brave and stunning” and “kind” and “diversity/equality/inclusion”. We can also call the women who object “bigots” and hound them from public life. A gift to predators and misogynists.
• 8 December 2021: I do, because it gives men two options. If they split the prize money and halve the trophy between men and non-binary - sure, but leave the female category alone.
• 8 December 2021: So men now have three categories to choose from - men for the elite, and non-binary or women (as long as they identify as “woman”) for sub-elite/mediocre. How….progressive 🤦🏼‍♀️
• 8 December 2021: Girls go to the toilet more frequently, for more reasons, have more complicated clothing to remove and take longer to go. The need for toilet cubicles takes far more space than a row of urinals. For true equality females actually need more provision than males. Not less.
• 8 December 2021: Cost, space etc? Why can’t we just leave them the way they are and repurpose one of the boy’s toilets for mixed sex, b/c equal provision is not equal space. What if girls need a space separate to boys? The girls toilets was always somewhere to seek respite, refuge and sanctuary.

• 2 December 2021: No. That is absolutely absurd. Male physiology and the andogrenising effects of male level testosterone give males a substantial performance advantage on strength, stamina, size and speed. It is why we see middle aged overweight men competing with elite women in weightlifting.

• 22 November 2021: What about the right of women and girls to fair competition, safety and inclusion? When men are included, we are excluded. Why are the feelings and rights of a self-declared special group of males more important than little girls? What about our rights under CEDAW?
• 22 November 2021: Spaces women and their supporters fought long and hard for over centuries. Now we have males putting on frocks, renaming themselves with stereotypical girls names, demanding this is sufficient to override our privacy, safety & dignity because they want in. https://savewomenssports.com/males-in-female-sports-1

• 22 November 2021: I am utterly horrified that surgery is being promoted as a solution for psychological distress. Why are we not supporting these people to accept their bodies just as they are? These surgeries are brutal and irreversible. There will be extraordinary levels of regret.
• 22 November 2021: @PeterTatchell I could refute every single one of those absurd points you make e.g. the largest female rugby players are ONLY as big as the average male rugby player. Men with special identities have advantage because they are MALE. They WILL outperform a comparative female.
• 22 November 2021: Australian trans lobby is demanding that taxpayers foot the bill for breast augmentation, castration & neo-vaginoplasty for males, bilateral mastectomies & phalloplasty for females.

• 19 November 2021: Good grief Matthew, you appear not to be listening to these women at all. You also seem to be confusing a refusal to capitulate to an ideology, or declining to accept men are women because they say so, or willingly sacrificing women’s rights without resistance, as “hate”.

• 18 November 2021: *claiming
• 18 November 2021: They didn’t engage with our community. None of our groups were consulted. We wrote numerous letters to the IOC requesting representation, requesting our voice be heard. If they are claim they did a “broad ranging consultation”, the names of the groups must be disclosed.

• 18 November 2021: Or got continuing to interrupt and talk over @RosieDuffield1
• 18 November 2021: And I heard echoes of the words of a certain TRA in the IOC answers, a person who has conducted themselves publicly in a thoroughly unprofessional manner, who has been openly disparaging and contemptuous towards women who disagree with him. That person was clearly consulted.
• 18 November 2021: I’d also like to know “who” exactly they consulted? Why are they not being transparent? We have every right to know who spoke on behalf of women. Do you represent the interests of females, or do they ascribe to the woke agenda?
• 18 November 2021: Thank you, it is deeply distressing to be referred to as “cis”, to be told that the definition of woman is no longer simply an “adult human female” but a man who chooses to LARP and invade our spaces…so many of us feel utterly betrayed.

• 17 November 2021: We must not be compelled to speak untruths when it comes to discussing policy and legislation. Pointing out that males are males and have male-bodies is the truth. Sex matters. It’s hurtful to women that some men think being a woman is nothing more than a thought in their head.
• 17 November 2021: Let’s be honest, it’s men they want in women’s sports. They do not want us to have boundaries and men’d needs are paramount.

• 17 November 2021: Sport is mentioned in CEDAW in Art 10(g) and 14(c) but as it doesn’t apply to males, even those with a special, self declared identity, I am perplexed as to how the IOC thinks it applies to penis-havers?

• 17 November 2021: That an overweight, middle aged, mediocre male weightlifter made it to the top echelon of elite female weightlifting is a clear and unequivocal example of male performance advantage. That’s the advantage. Right there. https://twitter.com/runthinkwrite/status/1440253682851848202
• 17 November 2021: Apparently the IOC has a test for gender identity. https://twitter.com/fondofbeetles/status/1460689084054216712
• 17 November 2021: Thank you for being the only journalist who held them to account for this disgraceful abnegation of leadership and responsibility.
• 17 November 2021: And what about the human rights of little girls and young women? What about them? What about their rights under CEDAW? Or do they simply have to budge up for any man or boy who declares a trans identity? This is a extraordinary and deeply misogynist attack on females.
• 17 November 2021: It’s not an unlimited human right - you do not have the right to compete in any category of your choice, you do not have the right to participate in any category based on subject feelings, you do not have the right to compete in a category from which you are objectively excluded.
• 16 November 2021: Considering they let men in on the basis of Harper’s rubbish survey of 8 athletes with minimal consultation, no media scrutiny etc it’s a bit bloody hypocritical they are saying more research is needed. @Nequals8XY
• 16 November 2021: A massive abnegation of responsibility by IOC. Three years of consulting, but it’s too hard and it’s evolving and it’s a process so let’s punt it to the IFs.
• 16 November 2021: Media Roundtable was a dumpster fire. Inclusion was the priority, self selection into the female category on basis of gender identity and then assessment of performance advantage? Unworkable. And stating testosterone does not confer advantage? How are these people in their jobs?
• 16 November 2021: They should be excluded until they can prove otherwise, not demand inclusion and then put the burden on women to disprove the advantage.
• 16 November 2021: When they excluded us a century ago, women founded their own Olympics - including female only spectators - we need to do that again. IOC has betrayed us all, and smashed the dreams of young girls everywhere @rosey_nz @coachblade @BethStelzer
• 16 November 2021: Yes hi Josh! Would you be willing to talk to a lawyer and advocate for women and children who is not a woke libfem? I speak and write on the impacts of gender identity ideology on law and policy, particularly in sport, where women are being harmed by the inclusion of males.

• 16 November 2021: Wrong. I hear from the girls and women harmed and excluded by trans inclusion policies. We have every right to have a group that speaks specifically for us, that speaks specifically to protect sex categories for sport.
• 16 November 2021: “Explains” “thinking” - three years, and this is the guff they come up with? IOC did not cover themselves in glory here.

• 16 November 2021: What a muddle the IOC has gotten itself into! So passing buck to IFs. Don’t need to determine who is and isn’t a woman, instead it’s based on an athlete’s performance and whether they have “advantage”. Mention made of gender identity then performance advantage.
• 16 November 2021: IOC says no, they have research funding available. Eligibility criteria specific to the sport, even the event! IOC says it’s a process to go through jointly. Very difficult debate. End.
• 16 November 2021: Q Harm prevention - acknowledgment that policies in past, such as athletics, have caused harm to “women athletes with intersex conditions”? IOC want to build guidelines for future, want to look forward, not judge if wrong or right in past. Further Q is this passing the Buck?
• 16 November 2021: not qualify how TGD are eligible now? But creates dialogue between IOC and IF for the future? Want to be collaborative. It is a process, and we don’t have the solution. Some sports don’t have TGD yet.
• 16 November 2021: What if they don’t follow the guidelines here? Wrong assumption, IOC wants to work with IF. And there are not TGD athletes in every sport….yet, find solutions that respect rights, level playing fair and how to protect women’s category. Q again - so framework does
• 16 November 2021: UK Sports Council - for IOC was a process about determination of performance. Framework for all IFs. Whereas UKSC was a choice of two options. Q Sydney Bauer - non-binding framework, but what about IOC taking action against IFs who haven’t followed guidelines?
• 16 November 2021: why did IOC do things differently or think UK sports council is wrong? For Paris, topic takes time, took 3 years of consultation for this, process done properly and thoroughly (laughable considering the 2015 Consensus), but it’s up to IF, no deadline, with respect to Paris.
• 16 November 2021: This is an evolving topic - research coming in regularly. Will not evaluate IFs, but it will continue to evolve. Subject to review and revision, evolving process, periodic review in framework. Q Sean Ingle! Timeframe for new guidelines? UK sports council guidelines -
• 16 November 2021: to determine sex, but to monitor T levels if trying to keep them low. Q IF that have dealt with this issue have handled it well, will there be revision of IFs guidelines. Ruling or litigation pending cause revision of guidelines?

• 16 November 2021: This new IOC framework looks at inclusion and then disproportionate advantage. Eligibility criteria responsibility of IFs.
• 16 November 2021: Q from BBC - asking about 2015 Consensus and Caster Semenya. If an IF allows an athlete with clear advantage to compete, will the IOC step in? Testosterone - performance is not relative to endogenous T. Artificially reduce T can mitigate performance. T levels are not applicable
• 16 November 2021: advantage to be mitigated. Again mediocre males in female athlete category. Great.
• 16 November 2021: unfair. Athletes will register based on gender identity, then performance eligibility assessed. Must be fair and meaningful. What is the legal gender identity recognition in their country of origin, for example? Look at history of performance of athlete I’d there is unfair
• 16 November 2021: More answer - females want meaningful competition and level playing field. We want fairness. Process to reach that is now different. Restrict participation to keep playing field fair, will not determine who is a woman and not a woman, but their performance and whether it is
• 16 November 2021: Demographic and community - due to privacy they cannot disclose. But it was CIS women and VIS men and TW and TM. (IOC very much on board with woke speak). But big consultation, everyone consulted (sounds familiar).
• 16 November 2021: Q Tracey Holmes ABC news! How many trans and sports and geographical diversity within the group consulted? Not all sports faced with this situation, what happens when TGD start playing all these sports, how does IOC Women in Sport react here?
• 16 November 2021: some sports so it doesn’t matter right now, it will evolve. (So let’s see how we go and see how much women will tolerate men in their sports until they push back?)
• 16 November 2021: and medical intervention. Framework not legally binding. Performance eligibility is based on performance. IF must make own guidelines. Christian Klaue is now talking about new perspectives and broadening perspectives. It’s up to the IFs, there are no elite TGD in
• 16 November 2021: answers, performance is key to eligibility. Likely means that as long as they can perform they are eligible. Expect to see more mediocre men in women’s sports. Q Ina Fried - male with trans identity - confused by question, but answer is about avoiding procedures
• 16 November 2021: Question time! Please note chat was immediately disabled after @coachblade commented “observed male or female or intersex. Not “assigned””. Q Is there funding available for research on this issue? Priority for research fund is on TGD - need to broaden base. R. Budgett -
• 16 November 2021: IOC say they have not found a solution. The topic is not over according to them. IOC has failed to take a strong position to protect women. Clearly the disobedient women need to be worked on to make sure they capitulate to the ideology.
• 16 November 2021: That’s done. Majorly disappointing. Fair competition and safety a very small component.
• 16 November 2021: 6. Stakeholder centred - athletes consulted, 7. Privacy - so women can’t know they are competing against a penis person presumably 8. Periodic review.
• 16 November 2021: 5. Presumption of advantage - not based on how athletes look, like male with a penis against elite women? 6. Evidence based - so where is evidence to prove a gender identity. 7. Primacy of health -performance and not invasive procedures (read b/w the lines here)
• 16 November 2021: 4. Fairness (prevent unfair advantage? So we can have elite women against mediocre males?), prevent risk to safety and cheating. This is very muddled. They’ve lumped together all the former principles. Prevent cheating relating to gender identity but not sex. Jesus wept.
• 16 November 2021: Twelve new principles to consider 1. sport is a human right and must include everyone. 2. Prevention of harm 3. Non-discrimination. (Sounds like they are on the inclusion/diversity/equality trans train)
• 16 November 2021: Eligibility for each sport, moving away from 2015 IOC consensus and passing buck to each international federation. And making sure individual athletes not suffer harm or discrimination.
• 16 November 2021: Must tailor each sport to performance that is relevant. So if someone declares they are a woman it’s based on their performance? A muddled logic here.
• 16 November 2021: Testing and examination is disrespectful and intrusive. We can focus on performance instead of scientific testing as to whether someone is a “woman”.
• 16 November 2021: Testosterone advantage is not one factor, can be unreliable or irrelevant. Safety important in combat and contact sports. Harm to athletes is important - cannot force a athlete into a medically unnecessary procedure that may cause physical or mental harm.
• 16 November 2021: Still haven’t mentioned “women” and we are 17 minutes in. Claiming a large consultation process with many parties. Access to sport must be equal and accessible - here we are first mention of WOMEN!
• 16 November 2021: Listening to the IOC media presentation for new transgender inclusion rules - it is not boding well for women. It’s all about cisgender and transgender, and celebrating Laurel Hubbard. Not mention on impact of women, lots of concern about trans athletes.

• 15 November 2021: “Clients”. A lawyer has clients, prostituted women and children do not, they do not have a choice, nor any sort of protection, they have men paying to use and abuse their bodies. While human beings are sold there will always be coercion, trafficking and exploitation.
• 15 November 2021: No. That is not “sexuality”. It’s exploitation and power, There is a power differential and the paying male customer has the power and control. Any conversation about prostitution involves children - average age for bring prostituted is THIRTEEN. That is a child.
• 15 November 2021: When you have to pay for consent, it isn’t consent.
• 15 November 2021: Where are these 1000s of prostituted women who “enjoy” it? Are you asking women still being prostituted or who haven’t been out long enough to process their trauma? Perhaps ask the women who have been out for a few years. Different story.
• 15 November 2021: And prostitution has nothing to do with “sexuality”, it is the industrialised exploitation for commercial profit of the bodies of children and women for male sexual gratification. It is abhorrent you would even conflate that with a normal, healthy, fulfilling sex life.
• 15 November 2021: If you bothered to read what I wrote, you will see that I quite clearly state that prostituted women and children should be decriminalised. I have held that view publicly for quite some time.
• 15 November 2021: You can’t honestly be suggesting that prostituted women and children are making a “choice” to be prostituted, because in the absence of not being starving, or being forced or coerced or groomed, I guarantee they would choose to do anything but that.
• 14 November 2021: No it’s not, it’s the violent pimps, johns and traffickers that make it violent. Decriminalise the prostituted women and children, and throw those who exploit and abuse and rape and kill them in prison. Give exited women and children real support and meaningful exit strategies.
• 14 November 2021: No. Decriminalise the prostituted women, children and young men. Criminalise the pumps, johns, brothel owners and traffickers.
• 14 November 2021: The Victorian parliament assured us, when they pushed through the Suppression Practices Act - including redefining sexual orientation - that paedophilia was not an “orientation” captured by that legislation.

• 26 October 2021: Here is a perfect example of clear writing - by a retired judge no less. Compare and contrast with Butler’s interminable ramblings. @JSmoot111 https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/trial-court-gender-theory-john-m-smoot
• 26 October 2021: Yes it is. It is dehumanising and offensive to reduce the entire category of women to a subset of women, our own category, because there are men who declare a special identity and demand to be included.
• 26 October 2021: With absolutely no understanding of how human rights works I warrant.
• 26 October 2021: …writing. It appears to me that Butler tries to couch the fact her ideas are nonsense in polysyllabic words and interminable sentences.
• 26 October 2021: Well not really, I read legislation and legal decisions for fun - and even I only got halfway through her most recent turgid article in The Guardian before I gave up on deciphering the waffle. It is impossible to ascertain her meaning, there is something to be said for clear…
• 26 October 2021: I’ve only heard of two people who’ve managed to read Butler. It’s incomprehensible. I’m dubious of anyone who says they have unless it is necessary for their work (academics lecturing in philosophy and feminism for example).
• 26 October 2021: You cannot change your sex. You can change your hair colour. Sex has a significant function and is coded in every single strand of DNA and cell in your body. I bet you can even tell your sex from your hair.
• 25 October 2021: #NoThankYou
• 25 October 2021: Observable, objective subsets. You can’t “identify as” tall, just like you can’t “identify as” the opposite sex and expect the world to accommodate that subjective feeling
• 25 October 2021: Why is anyone pointing out the elephant in the room being put on the Twitter naughty step?
• 25 October 2021: Me too
• 25 October 2021: This is a grassroots women’s movement. But look at who is funding and pushing gender identity?
• 25 October 2021: Women who reject gender identity ideology come from all across the political spectrum and socio-economic classes, as do the men. Reality and truth will win, and history will look on this time as the great gender brain fart of the early 21st C.
• 25 October 2021: Cis does not exist as a category for women. Women are not a category made up of women and men who want to be them. It’s a manufactured concept forced on women who reject it. So no, it’s not a category in law or reality or anywhere outside of gender studies departments.
• 25 October 2021: The most oppressed and marginalised and vulnerable group argument is no longer holding up. Not when you have the social capital and power to silence elected officials. https://twitter.com/axios/status/1452349120354598918
• 25 October 2021: But Levine is apparently part of the most marginalised and oppressed and vulnerable group ever…got it.
• 25 October 2021: No such thing as “cis”, women are women not a subset of our own sex. A man harassing another man for not performing sex based stereotypes is not “misogyny”, it’s mean, unacceptable and possibly unlawful, but not misogyny. The key is in the “gyn” which does not apply to males.
• 25 October 2021: Moderate are fighting for: ~ reality of biological sex ~ women’s rights, safety and spaces ~ Safeguarding children ~ Preservation of reality based language ~ Protection of family from state interference And against ~indoctrination of our children ~gender identity ideology & CRT
• 25 October 2021: You are growing an entire human and a body organ to support it. It’s a huge, complicated process. Very weird things happen to your body. Go easy on yourself, take lots of naps and let people help you with things when they offer!
• 25 October 2021: No one with a Y chromosome would have a hip to waist ratio like that. Nor would they have legs shaped like that.
• 25 October 2021: There is a set of observable characteristics that is easily determined by other human beings, even infants can tell the difference between the sexes. And surprise - it’s not stereotypes!
• 25 October 2021: Y chromosome haver that has survived until adulthood. Man.
• 25 October 2021: Being “pregnant” is “just a process”? You haven’t been pregnant have you? How dare you presume to speak for women!
• 25 October 2021: Yes. And especially support the women who do. I would not be brave enough to speak out the way I do if I did not have a wonderful group of men, in addition to the incredible women, who back me in everything that I do.
• 25 October 2021: Good grief…what a thorough capitulation to the ideology. And from the mind that conceived June Osborne no less….an extraordinary example cognitive dissonance.
• 25 October 2021: Language by fiat is not evolution
• 25 October 2021: And all the decent blokes I know would not DREAM of going in the women’s, completely horrified and appalled by all this. Real men do not transgress women’s boundaries or child safeguarding.
• 25 October 2021: The CBC article was good though, they are never published anything remotely GC as far as I am aware
• 25 October 2021: Woman says something out loud at work that most people are likely thinking. Forced to “step back and re-educate herself” to appropriate level of workplace wokeness. @mkay_fain @4WPub https://4w.pub/cancelled-bloodstock-organizer-is-right-its-time-to-bin-pronouns-in-emails/?fbclid=IwAR3ibWnk5J6xV-aOtD-CnyF4dlqMHSwSracdsYmiW_T9shCsE-3saRr5Nh4
• 25 October 2021: Is the tide beginning to finally turn in Canada? Although sex self-is not just “problematic” for women and children, it is CATASTROPHIC https://twitter.com/margaretatwood/status/1451907253037060107
• 25 October 2021: Laziness and fear
• 25 October 2021: What rights don’t they have?
• 25 October 2021: 😂
• 25 October 2021: So if it’s a gender and NOT a sexual orientation then why is it glomming onto LGB? What does “gender” mean? “What IS “genderqueer”? Please explain. Circular reasoning is not an answer by the way.
• 24 October 2021: I really love my work. When I tell my supervising partner I got the Twitter naughty step, he laughs and he tells me he got a Instagram holiday and says at least we’ll have each other. And we have two toilets - 1 women, 1 everyone.
• 24 October 2021: What sort of women though Smudge? This is the city Capital of Australian Woke after all.
• 24 October 2021: Now that….is a truly low blow 😉
• 24 October 2021: Thank you yes, it is an appalling state of affairs.
• 24 October 2021: …name and speak publicly in defence of women and children’s rights, and problems with the law. I have to be measured and evidence based in what I say, yet still get targeted. Women are tired, we are tired of platitudes, tired of fighting this, and we are tired of being told.
• 24 October 2021: Roddy I am a practising lawyer, I’ve had gruesome rape and death threats against me that I’ve had to report to the police, anonymous complaints made to my law firm, my child dragged online for something of theirs I proudly shared once (never again). I tweet in my own
• 24 October 2021: …contribution to the debate. Not when women are being silenced, punished, threatened and actually violently hurt, suffering real harm. I suggest actually reading up on this, look at the merit and coherence of arguments from both sides and I think the picture will become clear.
• 24 October 2021: …educated, intelligent women have been making calm, reasoned arguments about this for years. Nothing. No support from the establishment or mainstream. Jumping in at the 11th hour to say we all have rights, they don’t conflict, and let’s all get along, is a rather inadequate…
• 24 October 2021: Roddy - you are a bit late to the party, women have been facing extreme threats to reputation, livelihood, safety and lives for quite some time. The time for imploring everyone to be kind and all get along, came and went ages ago. There is a collision of rights, very articulate…
• 24 October 2021: Twitter put me on the naughty step for 12 hours. If I’d woken up from the year 2015 I’d be asking myself what fresh hell I was in: humans can change sex now by simply saying so and mentioning someone’s biological sex if they have a Y is hateful, apparently. pic.twitter.com/N3FYd4IMYk
• 24 October 2021: Let’s keep the focus on the men who been issuing threats for years, and the men who want access to spaces for women and children, and the harm who commit the violence, shall we, and stop telling women how to “be kind”.
• 24 October 2021: That is certainly one way to demonstrate you’ve not read the book or seen the series. Best friend Moira. And Emily, and Emily’s lover, a Martha (name unknown), hung from a crane in the first Season.
• 24 October 2021: What does it MEAN? Like “genderf**k”? What does it mean and how is it a sexual orientation? Hilarious when high profile TRAs and NBs can’t even explain it themselves…. 🤦🏼‍♀️ https://fairplayforwomen.com/nolan-investigates-stonewall-4/
• 24 October 2021: No. It’s harmful to validate delusions. And particularly when it comes at my own expense, that of my daughters and all women and girls.
• 24 October 2021: “Born male” = IS A MALE. About time the powers-that-be stood up to this insanity. We need it to filter down to Australia…. A vicious, violent, unstable individual, who killed his ex-girlfriend’s dog is a MAN. Stop attributing these crimes to us. https://www.news.com.au/national/nsw-act/courts-law/olivia-sindel-woman-jailed-for-killing-exlovers-dog-in-domestic-dispute/news-story/ed8311996f48ef7943ff4a8c06cf4242
• 24 October 2021: Inclusive of who? Men? White men? White professional men? Wealthy white professional men? Most definitely most excluded and oppressed group in history 🤦🏼‍♀️
• 24 October 2021: “Queer” is not a gender, it is a slur with a horrible history of violence. Perhaps ask some of the elder LG who actually risked their lives to fight for their liberation.
• 24 October 2021: Not having a Y chromosome
• 24 October 2021: A great many LGB people find “queer” horribly offensive. A terrible slur used against them when they were actually assaulted, marginalised and discriminated against. When you use it, you really have no idea of the harm you cause by triggering them of awful memories.
• 24 October 2021: Because they are male. A special self-declared identity does not erase that. This is nothing more than plain old-fashioned misogyny and colonisation. All Levine has done of note is declare “trans”, Biden & Co. falling over themselves to elevate them on a pedestal. Embarrassing.
• 24 October 2021: Then surely you can appreciate that rights are very much “pie” here. If men are included women and girls pay a price, a very heavy one. The time for imploring women to “be kind” is over. I’ve had to report death and rape threats against me to my local police.
• 23 October 2021: Which jurisdiction Tania?
• 23 October 2021: There is no middle ground. Sex based rights must be based on “sex” not feelings and stereotypes.
• 23 October 2021: Because they are gender zealots and want to signal their allegiance to this neo-religion?
• 23 October 2021: Australia - v - Brazil 🇦🇺 🇦🇺 GO MATILDAS 🇦🇺 🇦🇺 First post-lockdown game!! pic.twitter.com/qL7KGC74a0
• 23 October 2021: They can’t “happily co-exist” if men can declare a special identity and gain access to spaces, services, sports and resources dedicated to women (adult human females and their children). You of all people should understand rights collide and we should be able to talk about it.
• 23 October 2021: 😂

• 23 October 2021: @BillboardChris 1 - Gender zealots 0 🤭
• 23 October 2021: Failing to realise they’ve actually generated a whole lot of media coverage for @BillboardChris , effectively ending the media blackout of criticism of “transitioning” children. How many people have looked up what the “bigot” is saying realising they actually agree?
• 23 October 2021: Has anyone had a good trawl through man-at-bus-stop’s Twitter history? Glass houses and all that.

• 22 October 2021: What human rights don’t people who declare a trans identity have? What has sterilising gender non-confirming children got to do with the demands of men who desire to transgress women’s boundaries and child safeguarding?
• 22 October 2021: And who are the people committing these sexual assaults? And which group are the victims? This is not a person-less crime. https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1451680540399112196

• 22 October 2021: I am not sure what they would make of the state of things in Australia today, but I hold fast to the fact that since our inception we have sought to follow the Rule of the Law, without which, we descend into chaos.
• 22 October 2021: Decision was upheld because Governor Phillip in charge of settling the convict colony was tasked to uphold the Rule of Law and separation of state. It was not perfect by any means, but the seeds for a functional representative were there.
• 22 October 2021: Yes, the first civil litigation case in Australia concerned a young married couple who were transported here as convicts. There was a drive by the public to gather items for the bridal chest. Ship’s captain stole & sold the items en route.

• 22 October 2021: So what is “trans” Dr. Turban? And why does it require a medicalised pathway or statutory protections if it is conceptually undefinable?
• 22 October 2021: So Australia, why are we upholding the right of people to purchase sex using taxpayer funds? And don’t think we don’t notice the insidious tactic of using a disabled woman as the respondent to whitewash the fact it is overwhelmingly men who purchase sex. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2020/may/12/ndis-funds-pay-sex-workers-court-rules https://twitter.com/pankhurstem/status/1451521193622839311

• 22 October 2021: Just stop it! Humans cannot change sex. That is a MALE! Aren’t you embarrassed?
• 22 October 2021: I am not experienced in elder care but it reminded me of a elderly neighbour I once found who was frozen in place trying to get herself up a very small rise due to Parkinson’s, am I wrong in thinking forcing him to perform is accelerating his decline?
• 22 October 2021: Yes. There is an entire Act being enacted in Victoria in February 2022 for precisely this purpose.
• 21 October 2021: We all know the types of children being caught by this. Why are they okay with sterilising GNC, autistic, in-care kids?
• 21 October 2021: She’s retired to the hinterland in Queensland
• 21 October 2021: Do they not realise there is a long line of people who’d likely do their jobs as unpaid interns?

• 20 October 2021: What a horrible mischaracterisation of Chris, and with no right of reply! How on earth is turning children into lifelong patients and profit centres good for their health?
• 20 October 2021: Oh no….but what many ordinary Australians fail to realise is that there are numerous sex offenders everywhere, in every neighbourhood and every town. And as we know, they don’t look monsters, they look like ordinary men, hiding in plain sight.

• 19 October 2021: Or we could just save the characters and say “woman” - then everyone knows what we are all talking about.
• 19 October 2021: But when we say “woman” we are not referring to “persons”, we are referring to a discrete, objectively observable type of person - that so distinctive they even have a special word so everyone knows what we are talking about. Having a special declared identity doesn’t change that
• 19 October 2021: What?
• 19 October 2021: Have you taken leave of your senses?
• 19 October 2021: These “t8rfs” of which you speak ARE women, many of us have suffered real violence at the hands of men, & actual threats of reputational/livelihood damage, rape & death for being TERFs. But go right ahead with dehumanising us, b/c we all know how well that turns out in the end.

• 17 October 2021: Yes. Because I’m doing a lot of intense but potentially high value work off-line now. The online fight and raising awareness of this war is in very good hands, it’s come a long way in a few years when there were very few voices pushing back.

• 16 October 2021: That’s not what this is about Steve, what sort of moral authority does it give you to be a parent who impregnates? This is about men & boys demanding access to women & girls, erasure of sex as a protected characteristic. Answer the Staniland question, why are you avoiding it?

• 16 October 2021: What has being a parent who impregnates got to do with any of this? You are not affected by inclusive policies or erasure of your language so it costs you nothing to virtue signal and give away the rights of others. I have never said that people are not free to be as GNC…

• 5 October 2021: Does it make you stop and think as to why apolitical suburban mums, separatist radical lesbians, traditional conservatives, JK Rowling, and transsexuals are all saying the same thing?
• 5 October 2021: Do not patronise me. You “helped”? Well done you. I reject the unnecessary medical experimentation on children’s bodies, as do the vast majority of people. If you have transed those kids, then you are complicit.
• 5 October 2021: He doesn’t speak for anyone I know
• 5 October 2021: Monstrous is an understatement. It’s medical malpractice, the litigation will be huge. But how many innocent children damaged before then?
• 5 October 2021: What “community”? I have LGB and GNC in my employ, my family and my friends. You don’t speak for them. They are horrified at the experimentation on and sterilisation of these children ostensibly in “their” name. Not bigotry to protect children from ideological zealots.
• 5 October 2021: And funnily enough, when I’m still wiping bums, washing hair and having sleep interrupted by my child crawling into bed for reassurance in the night, that child does not need “bodily autonomy” they need parents tending to their needs and making decisions in their best interest.
• 5 October 2021: The Australian experience mimics US. Gender and queer theory came out of US academy last century. SRS in children started by John Money in Boston.
• 5 October 2021: Your condescension and contempt really jumps off the feed here. It’s quite clear you are unable to defend any of your arguments, so are forced to resort to attacks and ad hominems. A losing strategy.

• 4 October 2021: Additionally, rate of suicide after 10 years is nearly 20 times higher than the rest of the population. Longitudinal outcomes are not good for mortality, incarceration, MH. The evidence does not show lack of support is the cause, in fact, we don’t know. Perhaps we should?
• 4 October 2021: Questions also have to be asked about the impact on neonates of mothers who have been on testosterone. I have heard anecdotally these children have highly unusual endocrinological issues. Where is the research on that?
• 4 October 2021: Wrong. There is a 1-2% chance of death from complications from penectomy and vaginoplasty surgery for males who transitioned as children.

• 4 October 2021: Don’t you dare patronise me. How is it abusive to urge caution for medical experimentation on your child? Have you read the WA decision? There is NOTHING abusive about protecting your child from irreversible medical experiment that has no or v limited efficacy.
• 4 October 2021: They are not "treatments" - they are experiments with serious, irreversible side effects. How is it lifesaving? They stopped provided these interventions to children in UK in December, so where are all the suicides? There should be thousands.
• 4 October 2021: Most GNC kids reconcile with sex at puberty, so why the are you so insistent on pushing vulnerable kids onto a unevidenced medicalised pathway? Why are you so interested in irreversible surgeries for other people's children? What's in it for you?
• 4 October 2021: Stop imputing things of which you know nothing, I said absolutely nothing of the sort. That is not remotely the same thing, there is no evidence for the efficacy or safety of these treatments, and the evidence demonstrates self-harm & suicide ideation increases after transition.
• 4 October 2021: That is not remotely the same thing, there is no evidence for the efficacy or safety of these treatments, and the evidence demonstrates self-harm and suicide ideation increases after transition. Most GNC kids reconcile with sex at puberty, so why the insistence on interventions?

• 25 September 2021: I think the best they can do is say you said “children” and this says “age of majority” (even though we know surgeries are occurring on children) therefore you are a liar, a charlatan, burn the witch and you can’t admit a mistake. It’s pathetic.
• 25 September 2021: How very violent
• 25 September 2021: We have the Medicare data and data from the Gender Clinics. It is happening to children. It is ACON who is lying.
• 25 September 2021: What mistakes?
• 25 September 2021: Wondering if they refer to the other group of people as prostate-havers, ejaculators, people who impregnate or people with penises?

• 25 September 2021: I love being an Aunty! And I have another niefling on the way (no gender reveals in our family so babies are nieflings until born)…I cannot wait. I will wear that honour with pride all my life.
• 25 September 2021: @ConflictSaid
• 25 September 2021: Talk about biological reductionism
• 25 September 2021: And anyone who references Helen Joyce’s book Trans is an anti-Semite apparently (in the blog he references)….so by that logic The Times of London, NYT and all those who bought the bestselling book are anti-Semite then 🤷‍♀️
• 25 September 2021: It’s gold, highly entertaining!
• 25 September 2021: Yes we all need to look out for each other! It’s wonderful that you make a point to be aware.
• 25 September 2021: I’m rather partial to “people who impregnate” as akin to “pregnant people”, for “birthing body” what would it be? “In charge of the delivery suite playlist body” “hold the gas mask body” “no you cannot get a coffee from the hospital cafe midway through a contraction body”?

• 25 September 2021: Thanks for explaining, but I’m inclined to disagree. Any boy who respects girls would not have infiltrated their championship.
• 25 September 2021: Netball QLD is delusional if they didn’t think there would be a backlash. Lots of people reached out to me over this one, including friends who never comment on the war I’m embroiled in. They are so blinkered by their obsession with “inclusion” they cannot think critically.
• 25 September 2021: They are acting as if boys don’t have the lion’s share of sporting resources, opportunities, remuneration and media coverage in this debate.
• 25 September 2021: Thanks James, I needed to hear that. Just came across an unpleasant blog where I am accused of “anti-semitism” for referring to Helen Joyce’s book Trans! Then I thought…is that the best you can come up with?
• 25 September 2021: Netball is a contact sport.
• 25 September 2021: Inclusion of men and boys means exclusion of women and girls. Women’s sports are now mixed sex, are we really willing to betray our daughters in furtherance if this fake inclusion nonsense? https://www.skynews.com.au/opinion/peta-credlin/ioc-transgender-guidelines-prioritising-inclusion-of-biological-males/video/7c3a31b4d4ea5841fe29b578f867f1fa
• 25 September 2021: @Lisa_Wilkinson when are you going to ask those of us standing up for women and girls to talk to you? There is a huge story right here, yet you keep ignoring it, along with the rest of Oz commercial media. @SWS_australasia https://twitter.com/theprojecttv/status/1440973952990556160
• 25 September 2021: Yes. The Matildas were beaten by a group of high school boys. US Women beaten by 16 year old boys. 15 year old boys are able to beat the most elite women in track and field. This is a well-established, known fact.
• 25 September 2021: If the boys want to play they should do what women have historically had to do - the hard yards and set up their own leagues instead of expecting girls to sacrifice for them. What a disgusting betrayal of girls, and what sort of boys would cheer themselves after thrashing girls?
• 25 September 2021: Disgraceful. Look at the response here. WOMEN and GIRLS are not dirty words. Do you refer to men and boys as ejaculators or “people with penises”?
• 25 September 2021: That is a disgusting and false assertion Michael. The rate of self harm and suicide ideation INCREASES after transition. There is no efficacy for these treatments. Long term outcomes are deeply concerning.
• 25 September 2021: And what’s your agenda here Michael? Why are you so hellbent on pushing GNC, vulnerable, autistic, LGB kids onto a medical pathway for life? Why are you so obsessed with their sex and their bodies?
• 25 September 2021: Buzzfeed is WRONG - PB and CSH are being provided to children on first appointment. Are you not aware Planned Parenthood does that in US? The Gender GP scandal in UK being heard right now? It happens here in Australia. I speak to the parents and Detrans people.
• 25 September 2021: 3000 American paediatricians are suing Biden due to being forced to provide these medical interventions to children. https://www.dailysignal.com/2021/08/27/pediatricians-sue-biden-administration-for-requiring-doctors-to-perform-trans-surgeries-against-beliefs/
• 25 September 2021: Flawed science? There is NO efficacy to these treatments. It’s an experiment on children! Arresting puberty in children is a human rights violation. Sterilising GNC kids. Turning them into medical patients for life and profit centres is a scandal.
• 25 September 2021: One of the most startling findings out of Bell Tavistock decision was that there is a paucity of data, research, evidence and follow up. It’s why the Cass report has been commissioned. It’s why the NHS, Sweden and Finland are all pulling back. Why are doubling down in Oz?
• 25 September 2021: The 20000+ community on Reddit is a start. TRAs suppress anyone who attempts to conduct research such James Caspian. Why is that? If it’s such a success story why are the Gender Clinics so loathe to share any data? https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-41384473
• 25 September 2021: It’s written by a group of highly experienced and credentialed psychologists who treat gender dysphoric and Detrans children, adolescents and adults.
• 25 September 2021: No I do not speak to her. I read what she writes and watch her when she speaks. I find it profoundly disturbing that she thinks PBs are reversible and that she believes herself able to change a child’s sex. Here is a critique of her AUSPATH guidelines https://ourduty.group/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/AusPATH-response-final-1.pdf
• 25 September 2021: Or even the trans people themselves who are horrified at what is being done in their name @kev_cub27
• 25 September 2021: Michael I urge you to listen to the voices of those who have been spat out at the end of this process - Scott Newgent, @trevoices @detrans_voices @DetransAdv etc. Or the parents @genspect or the psychologists @SEGMtweets @TaniaAMarshall . Read what they say with an open mind.
• 25 September 2021: I speak to Detrans people, I speak to trans people. Medically transitioning children is the greatest medical scandal of our time. I have no issue whatsoever with GNC kids, or LGB - I have LGB people in my family, as employees, as close friends and acquaintances.
• 25 September 2021: It’s happening Michael, you can try to attack me, but children are being put on puberty blockers and cross sex hormones - that DOES plunge girls into menopause. And it is experimental, and shows no efficacy long term. I speak to Detrans and trans people about this regularly.
• 25 September 2021: We know of girls as young as 15 getting surgery here in Australia, so yes, I will “think of the children”. I also think of those parents whose children are transitioned against the wishes of the parents. Or the pre-teen GNC kids put on experimental puberty blockers.
• 24 September 2021: When is it the time?
• 24 September 2021: Don’t need to mess with what isn’t broken 😃 Two organs are self-cleaning our bodies - eyes and vaginas, both have incredible jobs to do!
• 24 September 2021: In Scotland? On what cardinal document is your “legal gender identity” recorded?
• 24 September 2021: How do we know what a “transwoman” is?
• 24 September 2021: I hope to all the goddesses that it doesn’t happen there

• 24 September 2021: Please tell me this is irony? Otherwise I truly fear we are at the end of civilisation
• 24 September 2021: It’s heartbreaking. I think of all those years of training, the sacrifices, the support and expense and driving around all weekend by the parents, all wasted b/c inclooosion reigns supreme. They don’t even have to self declare a special identity, they just have to want to play!
• 24 September 2021: But their discomfort is based on their subjective feelings, women’s discomfort is based on millenia of being raped, beaten, murdered and exploited by members of the group we seek to exclude.
• 24 September 2021: Yes, because it’s not “shared”. It’s for women. A park bench is shared public spaces.
• 24 September 2021: Do you wants sports to be just men then?
• 24 September 2021: … And zir said: … Do you come from a land down under? Where people glow and people plunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover

• 24 September 2021: Please note they refer to a predatory male as a “person” here.
• 24 September 2021: @karlstefanovic @PeterStefanovi2 when are you going to report on this? Don’t you have wives and daughters? Do you really think this is fair??
• 24 September 2021: And I bet they’ve been playing for five minutes, not like the girls that have likely played since early primary school.
• 24 September 2021: Write to your state organisation, your club, your MPs. I cannot express how important it is to let them know how you feel, if you can. No doubt other parents and players feel the same way.
• 24 September 2021: And we taxpayers are paying for it! Hazzard hands over $12 million from the NSW Health budget in a “Special Ministerial Grant” EVERY YEAR, along with another $3M govt grants and $3M in fee-for-service which is mostly govt and corporates. Grifting off ordinary Aussies.
• 24 September 2021: “Person in Red” or “Menstruator in Red”?
• 24 September 2021: We have it too easy….”she’ll be right mate”.
• 24 September 2021: Medicare has now documented “males” receiving hysterectomies on the publicly available data - because it’s collected on basis of gender not sex….and this is Medicare!!!
• 24 September 2021: I also tell mine that no adults need "help" from children. All grown-ups know you cannot ask for help from children, if they are - even if its a sick puppy or lost cat - its a trick and a lie, and you must go and find a trusted and safe adult straight away.
• 24 September 2021: More children to turn into profit centres and consumers!
• 24 September 2021: What a mess! Who are the groups encroaching from the other side now??? It’s changing on a daily basis. And they forgot the intersex circle.
• 24 September 2021: That’s a hot mess, who are the groups on the other side encroaching on LGB now? Are yo going to fly the Suffragette flag on IWD?
• 24 September 2021: What was the outcome?
• 24 September 2021: Yes. We have those conversations too.
• 23 September 2021: This is exactly why we teach our daughters to find another mummy or grandma or a lady if they are lost or frightened. WE KNOW.
• 23 September 2021: I asked for statute or case law, not a screenshot of a website. The legal authority for your assertion please. I’ll wait.
• 23 September 2021: Where does it say “excluding an entire demographic is not a proportionate aim”? This is the law, you must be precise.
• 23 September 2021: It still blows my mind they are so casual about “puberty blockers”, acting as if it’s the Pill. We are talking about putting children in a state of suspended animation, arrested development. Robbing them of the opportunity to mature into the adults they are destined to be.
• 23 September 2021: Says who? Please provide the statutory reference or case law for that assertion
• 23 September 2021: He needs to define "woman" first
• 23 September 2021: As far as I am concerned, @KLBfax won. She shone a light into some dark crevasses, she dragged this sinister experiment on GNC & vulnerable children into the light. They did not want media scrutiny, criticism or debate, but now the whole world knows what they are up to.
• 23 September 2021: "Pigs arse" is currently trending in Australia. That's the tweet.
• 23 September 2021: The revelations in the Gender GP inquiry are exposing the rot in the foundations of this sinister experiment of turning GNC children into medico-pharma profit centres for life. Webberley is doing so much damage to her cause, its saving us the trouble.
• 23 September 2021: @SWS_australasia @SaveWomensSport @rosey_nz
• 23 September 2021: But we'd better get used to it @NetballAust implemented @PrideinSportAU @sportaustralia guidelines that expect everyone to pretend sex does not exist, that sex differences do not matter and that a man's self-declared special identity is the most important thing of all.
• 23 September 2021: If the boys wanted to play, they should not have taken the same old route of appropriating women's space on the court and podium for themselves, a tedious display of male entitlement, and done the hard work for their own league, just like women have done since time immemorial.
• 23 September 2021: @NetballAust @netqld embarrassingly betray women and girls by allowing a team of blokes to smash women in the QLD state final. The boys team should have stood aside and not taken the rightful spot of girls. Inclusion of men means exclusion for women. https://www.skynews.com.au/opinion/peta-credlin/absolutely-outrageous-allmale-netball-team-beats-girls-in-state-tournament/video/342bd661d848e1b3f9d0e3670987d269

• 23 September 2021: Who’s responsible for RBG’s memory? RBG’s daughter, Jane Ginsburg, is a Colombia Professor and an expert in copyright and IP. @ACLU would do well to remember that when they are bastardising RBG’s words and legacy of women’s advocacy. https://twitter.com/aclu/status/1439259891064004610

• 21 September 2021: I have a finite amount of daily empathy. Most of it goes to my children. Then the girls, women and parents harmed by gender identity ideology. Then maybe my dog and the cat. Not much left over for those who want to destroy my rights I’m afraid.
• 21 September 2021: @cathydevine56 did the research on elite female athletes about the inclusion of men with a self-declared special identity (aka “transwomen”) in women’s sports. They said NO. @iocmedia @ChKlaue could you invite Ms. Devine as an expert IOC adviser, because she actually is one? https://twitter.com/cathydevine56/status/1440140072859410432
• 21 September 2021: I’d have to disagree there. As the scion and only child of a politically connected (ex-Mayor of Auckland, NZ’s biggest city) and millionaire manufacturer, Laurel Hubbard is as far from “disadvantaged” as you can be. Elite private school education and everything else.
• 21 September 2021: Really? https://twitter.com/tribunaltweets/status/1440246230341152779
• 21 September 2021: Change their “SEX” not “gender”.“gender” is factually untrue, it is SEX on birth certificate. Changing the “regressive and oppressive sex stereotypes assigned to me due to my immutable, objective, observable sex” on cardinal identification documents sounds stupid. Because it is.
• 21 September 2021: Gender identity protection provisions removed from statutes - they are unworkable, nebulous, vague & conflict with "sex". People who are GNC are protected under the "sex" category b/c they cannot be discriminated against for failing to fulfil the stereotypes assigned to their sex
• 21 September 2021: The only reason they are now joining the debate is b/c they sense the tide is turning, giving zero acknowledgment to the women at the vanguard of the fight against this toxic religion-without-a-god that comes for our children, infects our society, & destroys LGB & Women’s rights. https://twitter.com/boodleoops/status/1440011514191155200

• 19 September 2021: It’s a luxury belief. They underestimate parents once they realise the cult is coming for their kids, and especially their daughters. It will get worse before it gets better, and there will be more casualties.
• 19 September 2021: Their tactics haven’t worked on all of us. It’s been depressing to see who in the public arena, and also my private life, falls for this. Much disappointment.
• 19 September 2021: The best way to ensure children are safe, is to ensure their mothers are safe. Mothers belong to a particular group you seek to erase, that you seek to ignore, that you pretend do not need protections based on the material realities of their bodies.
• 19 September 2021: Don’t be disingenuous - the toxicity has only come from one side. Women have been enduring a tsunami of rape and death threats for years on this issue.

• 18 September 2021: For those us with experience dealing with Cluster B types, we can see the whole GII movement is simply a societal wide Cluster B performance.
• 18 September 2021: Me too. I am offended on a visceral and primal level that the TRAs want to erase our sex. Women’s relationships with our bodies are complicated, our reproductive lives complex….LARPing about performing sex stereotypes doesn’t even come close to our experience. It’s obscene.
• 18 September 2021: Medicine is the absolute critical place that sex matters - 6000+ biological differences FGS! Medical malpractice written ALL over it. Sometimes I wonder if these gender extremists actually live in the real world, they are so divorced from the embodied experience of being human.

• 17 September 2021: It will take desisters and Detransitioners suing their HCPs to wind this back. Our politicians are too cowardly to legislate, and case law has its place, but it’s not as robust as statutes obviously. I cannot fathom how anyone sees any of this as remotely acceptable.
• 17 September 2021: This is why I risk so much so speak up, those of who can see it understand what is happening. It is the rise of a totalitarian state. The suppression, gross overreach of authorities, the control of language, rewriting of history, recruiting youth. We have been here before.

• 17 September 2021: Alright, I agree with that, we want our educators to be human, but in this instance, where they are making a public declaration in the way that they did to the class, almost as a political act of allegiance, I question if that's appropriate?
• 17 September 2021: If its ordinary human conversation and interaction of course, but surely it's contravening some sort of ethical boundary for educators to make public declarations or announcements about their sexual orientation, politics or religion to their students in class?
• 17 September 2021: They certainly could. I have no doubt this will happen.

• 16 September 2021: That entire thread is a dumpster fire. I’m really glad to see so much pushback. All the gay men in my life I’ve asked do not like the Q word, it has cruel, violent and exclusionary connotations for them.
• 16 September 2021: No it’s not. This is a real person.
• 16 September 2021: …people understand that SEX MATTERS, performance of gender or sex stereotypes is just that, performance, an expression, & it in NO WAY changes one’s sex. Do you not realise lesbians/gays are now pressured to have sex w/ the opposite sex b/c homosexuality is now homogenderality?
• 16 September 2021: It is offensive and contemptuous to women and girls that all a fully intact man has to do is utter those words and he can inveigle himself into ALL our spaces, sports, panels, services, prison wards, rape crisis shelters and use our own rights against us. Surely you of all

• 14 September 2021: They think sending me links to newspapers articles qualify as evidence under the law. This is one part I REALLY enjoy about being a lawyer - it’s easy to back people into a corner when “debating” these issues, they have a tanty and then you know you’ve won 😊
• 14 September 2021: They can never answer the questions. They say things and I ask them where is the evidence, and they go off on a Gish gallop, and try to convince me difference concepts have the same meanings. It’s hilarious. Very entertaining.
• 14 September 2021: That’s not peer-reviewed, credible research. It’s a paper presented at a conference with like-minded cult members.
• 14 September 2021: Australians have it too easy down here, they don’t care until it affects them personally. Everyone has an opinion but no one willing to do anything about it. Vast majority of people agree with me, but we don’t have a history of resistance and protest.
• 14 September 2021: The data cohort is out of date snd limited. Huge explosion in numbers since 2017, research shows detransitioning for females about 4 years later, 6 years for male. DT also do not go back to the clinic that transitioned them, pls provide impartial and unbiased data set.

• 14 September 2021: What about The Australian, are they crap too?
• 14 September 2021: Our politicians are largely unwilling to face this issue. I suspect it will take litigation to end it all, and how many children and families, women and LGB people will be destroyed or harmed?
• 14 September 2021: No worries, the conservative or right leaning press have been the only ones willing to cover this issue. If we refused to talk to them, then there would be no coverage at all.
• 14 September 2021: I wish I could say I agree, but I've been following policy and legislative developments for years and this is the end result we have been trying to warn about for quite some time.

• 14 September 2021: The irony is strong

• 14 September 2021: It will get worse before it gets better. I daily receive information on this ideology creeping into all sorts of organisations, schools, workplaces, laws, government guidelines, the gender extremists are working hard to embed this into policy wherever they can, and succeeding.
• 14 September 2021: This case is being heard today, I urge you to look at the other media and see if they are covering this. Our side does not have the luxury of picking and choosing who we speak to, the mainstream refuse to engage. We HAVE to shine a light where we can.
• 14 September 2021: There are further links to The Australian. If you read the thread you will see I note that Aussie mainstream press and media have diligently & wilfully largely ignored this issue. @ABCaustralia @SBSNews are signed up to ACON Diversity Index - vested interest in silencing dissent.
• 14 September 2021: I have spoken with a number of these parents; loving, caring, intelligent people who are distraught at what is happening to their children, the interference of the State & publicly funded pro-gender organisations. Parents are demonised, silenced, left feeling utterly powerless.

• 13 September 2021: It makes their job difficult. I am very much looking forward to when these absurd definitions are tested in a high court of law, with barristers who know what they are doing. Because they will fall over, and I will certainly enjoy the spectacle.
• 13 September 2021: And to conflate them in law and policy presents problems because they are conceptually distinct, and “trans” is based on feelings. It’s never a good idea to make law based on feelings, in fact, it’s generally regarded as bad law, as is ambiguity, judges don’t like that.
• 13 September 2021: In law, words matter. If you have ever read a decision or legislation you’d know that. You can’t just say “gender reassignment” = “transsexual” = “trans” and they are interchangeable because they mean different things.
• 13 September 2021: Transsexual is also not gender reassignment. What does transsexual mean?
• 13 September 2021: So if I call all the kids claiming to be trans “transsexual” that’s okay? Because everyone who is trans is a transsexual and they are 100% all undergoing, or proposing to undergo or have undergone surgery? So I can say transsexual-gender? Or is transgender different?
• 13 September 2021: Is there any other presentation in medicine or psychology where the patient, particularly a child, self-diagnoses and receives treatment upon demand based on that self-diagnosis or self-declaration?
• 13 September 2021: No, you provided the with the definition for “gender reassignment”, that is “transsexual”. What does “trans” mean? Circular reasoning is not a definition.
• 13 September 2021: So what is a transsexual person? How does that differ from “trans”?
• 13 September 2021: I would question whether it is appropriate for a stranger to instantly affirm a child’s declared gender identity over a phone call. That would raise serious overreach, ethical and safeguarding issues.
• 13 September 2021: Do you know what defamation means?
• 13 September 2021: That is “gender reassignment” not “trans”. Precision with words matters in law. Again, where is the definition in law?
• 13 September 2021: None in 6 years.
• 13 September 2021: I’d like to see you tell GC women like Helen Joyce, Sheila Jeffreys, Holly Lawford-Smith and Julie Bindel they are ignorant about sex and gender. They’ve written the books.
• 13 September 2021: And where is the definition found in law?
• 13 September 2021: So gender is based on sex?
• 13 September 2021: Where is the definition in law? And according the Google definition, it’s a feeling? Being trans is a feeling?
• 13 September 2021: Boy or girl pertains to sex, whether they are a male or female child.
• 13 September 2021: No one discusses gender in the delivery room, no one assigns a gender in the delivery room. There are not two boxes to tick. We are not the ones conflating the two - never have, we know exactly what sex is, and gender, it is the TRAs who are doing so.
• 13 September 2021: Are you a lawyer?
• 13 September 2021: So if gender changes why are we enshrining it in law? What does “gender” mean?
• 13 September 2021: No one is “assigned sex at birth”, that is a fallacious, idiotic thing to say. Sex is observed and recorded. I suspect you’ve never been around a pregnant woman or a birth, have you?
• 13 September 2021: If we removed sex from the definition, it would be meaningless. You are grasping at straws. Sex is fundamental and it matters. It should always take precedence.
• 13 September 2021: What does “trans” mean?
• 13 September 2021: Alana McLaughlin wasn’t “once a man”, he IS A MAN. Bodies play sport, not identities. And pink hair does not a woman make. Stop this insanity! Does a woman have to die?? Save Women’s Sport. @SWS_australasia @piersmorgan https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9985411/PIERS-MORGAN-time-stop-trans-sport-insanity-women-start-killed.html
• 13 September 2021: I think you’ll find the vast majority of people recognise and accept biological sex, and that it matters in life and in law.
• 13 September 2021: Sure. I’d always recommend a person get legal representation, particularly if someone has a flimsy, indefensible argument. It’s late here, I’m tired, it’s been fun but good night.
• 13 September 2021: Please provide the statute that expressly states “TW are not viewed as their birth sex in UK law”, what is the definition for “transwoman” in UK law? How do we know the difference b/w a TW and a woman? Many objectively justifiable reasons to exclude males from female spaces.
• 13 September 2021: In cross examination you never ask a question to which you don’t already know the answer. I just wanted to watch you try and argue the indefensible, for the lurkers to see the lack of logic in your argument.
• 13 September 2021: You were trying to equate “transphobia” (which the law does not define) with gender critical as a protected belief. Your argument failed.
• 13 September 2021: Personal opinions don’t matter, the law doesn’t care about your feelings. Define “harmful” and how it is relevant in law in this context. That is a very far stretch from what you were implying about Esses.
• 13 September 2021: “Gender reassignment” is not “trans”, what is “trans”? I spent six years learning that words are precise and specific in law, you cannot just impute meaning to another word, it’s not how it works, what is the meaning?
• 13 September 2021: And how can you define “trans” as based on that definition. You can’t rely on a concept to define itself, that’s called circular reasoning and it’s therefore redundant. And here we are again, define “trans” in law, then we all might have some clue what you are talking about.
• 13 September 2021: You can’t even define “trans” in law, how can you define “transphobia”? Gender critical was defined in case law in the Forstarter decision, which is now precedent. Where is the legal authority for equating the two? You can’t provide it because it does not exist.
• 13 September 2021: …pathway not problematic? It is not a Helpline counsellors job to do that, as you rightly pointed out, they do not have capacity to do so.
• 13 September 2021: No, it means you have no other way of substantively arguing. You have a problem with that? What was his job then? Seeing as we have now ascertained he did not do what you accused him of. And why is diagnosing kids by “affirming” then and setting them down a concretised
• 13 September 2021: My point being how can you accuse someone of “transphobia” if you can’t define “trans”. If trans has no meaning in law, how can you equate “transphobia” with the protected belief of a gender critical position.
• 13 September 2021: No, you asserted GC beliefs are akin to homophobia and sexism, then you diverted to introducing trans, so I asked you what it means. You couldn’t provide a legal definition, so there was a whole lot of back and forth while you tried to defend your original position.
• 13 September 2021: Conversely, why is “affirming” not “diagnosing” or “treating”? Does Childline have capacity to diagnose gender dysphoria or suggest children embark on medical interventions?
• 13 September 2021: Why is what Esses did a problem for you? The only problem here is that he failed to instantly affirm. He wasn’t “diagnosing” or “treating”, he was engaging in exploratory talk therapy. And ad hominems simply indicate you can’t substantively argue your position.
• 13 September 2021: No, you are the one who making such assertions. I’ve asked you to provide the basis for your arguments. You can’t because it does not exist, I already knew that, I just wanted to see what you tried to defend with.
• 13 September 2021: Where did Maya express these beliefs at work, she did not? But by that logic, people who believe in gender identity ideology should not be free to express it at work either. How do feel about being spared all that “diversity, inclusion, equality” “training”?
• 13 September 2021: If someone is posting arguably defamatory comments about another person, it’s not a threat or intimidation to point that out. You are always free to stop making factually untrue statements. Your call.
• 13 September 2021: Expressing shock at what he was being told by children calling the helpline does not equate to what you are claiming he did.
• 13 September 2021: I’m a cynic at heart 😃
• 13 September 2021: A BBC article is not legislation. A journalist’s opinion on a definition is not a statute. Please advise what “transgender” means under the law, please provide the UK statutory reference.
• 13 September 2021: Is that the best you can do?
• 13 September 2021: Esses was not doing this on the child helpline. What you are saying is factually untrue.
• 13 September 2021: What are the other “schemes”?
• 13 September 2021: No you weren’t. You’re bouncing all over the place. Gender critical is a protected belief. What is “trans”? What does it mean in law?
• 13 September 2021: And again, careful with these assertions. There are laws against publishing factual untruths about people.
• 13 September 2021: Women and girls are entitled to have spaces and services that exclude men and boys (irrespective of any declared gender identity), they have these rights under the law in the UK. We need to speak truth when discussing policy and law.
• 13 September 2021: More harm being caused
• 13 September 2021: Your understanding is wrong snd factually untrue. You are just repeating fallacious imputations you’ve read on line. You do not know what you are talking about, I suggest you stop.
• 13 September 2021: So you are saying that believing in biological sex is akin to homophobia and sexism?
• 13 September 2021: Is that right? Do you have evidence for those assertions?
• 13 September 2021: What “rights” don’t trans identified people have?
• 13 September 2021: No it doesn’t, what is the definition? Is it even defined in UK law? An example is not a definition, what is the definition.
• 13 September 2021: No it doesn’t, what is the definition? Is it even defined in UK law?
• 13 September 2021: That’s a bit embarrassing for you..that is the Explanatory Note not the legislation, it’s also “gender reassignment” not “gender identity”. Where does it say “gender identity”?
• 13 September 2021: You do realise I’m a lawyer?
• 13 September 2021: You do realise every single definition of “gender identity” that has made it into law is based on SEX. GI is a nebulous, vague concept reliant on performance of sex stereotypes. Sex is based on biological sex. What does “trans” mean, what is the definition?
• 13 September 2021: You are really stretching there, it seems to me you aren’t clear on what actually happened. You are imputing things James’s conduct they have no factual or evidentiary basis. I’d be careful doing that.
• 13 September 2021: I’m a lawyer. Based on what Esses has said it is quite clear he has been discriminated against due to his non-belief in gender identity. I’d be very careful about making claims unless you have evidence to back up your assertions.
• 13 September 2021: Be very careful what you say here, unless of course, you are privy to the evidence.
• 13 September 2021: I’m a lawyer. Based on what Esses has said it is quite clear he has been discriminated against due to his non-belief in gender identity. I’d be very careful about making claims unless you have evidence to back up your assertions.
• 13 September 2021: Holding the position that “gender identity” is not a belief is now protected in UK law.

• 12 September 2021: This is not about “compassion”. Nor “lived experience” - which is limited and subjective. It has to do with care and support for DT/DS and it’s clear to me b/c they are they “heretics” they are invisibilised and ignored by the trans community. So who are the marginalised now?
• 12 September 2021: “Her rhetroric”? Her expert opinion is more like it. You still haven’t answered the question as to whether Detransitioners/desisters are entitled to care and support specific to them? Apparently not, I suspect it’s b/c it destroys the premise of trans ideology.

• 12 September 2021: You do realise “lived experience” does not necessarily make one an authority on a category? People outside the category are impartial and objective and may have better understanding. People can be notoriously self unaware, subjective and conflicted.

• 11 September 2021: Yes it does. Believing that gender identity (as based on name, dress, mannerisms i.e. sex stereotypes) overrides sex and we all have a “gender identity” is a belief. I don’t believe in it, and pronouns are a signal that you do.

• 11 September 2021: And let us be very clear here, these policies prioritise MEN & BOYS. Bodies play sport, not identities. When they speak about "transwomen" & "transgirls" they are speaking about MEN & BOYS. Fully intact males. Men & BOYS are now taking up space on the podium, track & team.

• 6 September 2021: This was an entirely political stunt. Telfer’s perception is that she was vindicated.

A male sex predator locked in with women already traumatised by male violence - think about that. Gender identity ideology is a gift to sex predators. https://youtu.be/6HGsAaaVBc0
• 3 September 2021: The male in the WiSpa incident is a Tier One registered sex offender with a long history of indecent exposure. He is legally “female”.

• 2 September 2021: Yes absolutely. My husband is a tradesman and I can tell you right now that if you treat him like a human being he will go above and beyond for you. He’s had people so rude and dismissive to him that he’s said he’s not interested in doing the job and fired them as customers.

• 1 September 2021: It’s flat out wrong. But when the Sex Discrimination Commissioner themselfs thinks that “gender identity” takes precedence over sex, it’s not surprising.
• 1 September 2021: No issue on sexual orientation if it pertains to SEXUAL orientation (not gender as in VIC or QLD, which is a nonsense). GENDER IDENTITY is a nebulous, subjective concept that causes ACTUAL HARM to women and children and is in direct conflict with sex based law.
• 1 September 2021: @leighsales gets it WRONG on the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 - it was brought on the basis of SEX not gender and not sexual identity. GENDER or SEXUAL IDENTITY are NOT concepts in Australian law. “Gender identity” and “sexual orientation” were inserted by stealth in 2013. https://twitter.com/annabelcrabb/status/1433006641759227905

• 30 August 2021: In Australia it is ACON who is pushing this nonsense through Pride in Diversity, shocking no-one Stonewall consulted on their policies
• 30 August 2021: I wrote Greg Hunt a letter about this yesterday. Happy to share the response when I get one.
• 30 August 2021: Couldn’t they just identify as male? Isn’t that what the SOGI Special Rapporteur is pushing for, the annihilation of sex?

• 30 August 2021: Doesn't mean the claims I made are not true, I'm just not going to do your work for you for free.
• 30 August 2021: I moreso see a man who expects a woman to go do his research for him for free. Or who doesn't think that my opinion is credible despite my body of work. It's concerning that someone is so oblivious to this whole issue. Or he doesn't know how to use the search function on Google?

• 30 August 2021: If you are truly unaware that there is a problem with transitioning children then you need to go do some research and get out of your progressive echo chamber. There is a world of information out there, why are you being stubborn and refusing to do your own research?
• 30 August 2021: I suspect the police did it for his own safety, its happened here in Australia at a few protests and marches where the police have escorted women away from the mob because the police were concerned for the women's safety.
• 30 August 2021: One million views. Scales are falling from people'e eyes. This brave man shone a bright light on the resistance to gender identity ideology and showed the ideologues to be the intolerant, cruel and dangerous cult that they are.

• 29 August 2021: I find this deeply disturbing. It places a burden on the victim to forgive their offender and accept all the reasons why their rapist raped them. It removes the state’s obligation to deal with violent men and asks women to “be kind”. No.
• 29 August 2021: Is that why they ask me to speak about it on weekly basis? Because I’m foolish? Do the research mate, there is mountains of it out there. I’m not doing it for you.

• 26 August 2021: As a woman in my 40s, w/ 3 children, and like most women, a complicated reproductive history, starting around 15 when I had to go on the pill for extremely heavy, debilitating periods that resulted in anaemia, it enrages me that OUR lived experience is deftly erased & dismissed.
• 26 August 2021: Yes, agreed. The journos and so-called experts - even lawyers - irk me the most, as what they say is then parroted erroneously and endlessly by those lay readers who rely on them to interpret the decision, resulting in a woefully ill-informed public debate.

• 25 August 2021: There will be a reckoning, and we will not forget those who actively advocated for ACTUAL harm to be done to vulnerable women and girls just so they could openly display their progressive virtue, their allegiance to the ideology and earn their woke cookies. We will not forget.
• 25 August 2021: Advocating for men to access spaces where women and girls seek refuge from male sexual violence, or locking women abused by males in with men who murder little girls and rape babies is the most vicious, vile and grossly dehumanising demonstration of woman-hate in our society.

• 23 August 2021: A very generous interpretation indeed. We don’t live in caves anymore, women choose for kindness, stability, financial security, humour as much as with physical attraction. It’s not as simple as picking an “alpha male”, humans are more complex than that.
• 23 August 2021: “I don’t get complaints” = women choose men to mate with who issue death and rape threats on social media to other women for defending biological sex.
• 23 August 2021: Of course - we must prioritise those who decide to defy government advice and punish those who are following government advice. Makes perfect sense.
• 23 August 2021: Sports guidelines that we need are very simple: bodies built by testosterone (Y chromosomes, testes, male level testosterone, body receptive to male level testosterone) are not female & therefore excluded from women’s sports. No one needs a law or science degree to figure it out. https://twitter.com/barbararkay/status/1429513734242934790

• 23 August 2021: Well he’s confused because I suspect the men issuing death and rape threats on social media are betas, either that, or he’s failed to notice that we no longer live in caves.
• 23 August 2021: What about the preventable mental health crisis for children/adolescents/women/men, economic crisis and sky high DV?

• 23 August 2021: And I’ll warrant all the draconian measures the government have put in place won’t be wound back in their entirety.
• 23 August 2021: And what about all the people suffering? Losing their businesses and livelihoods, women’s careers interrupted and being set back 10 years? Kids spiralling into mental health crisis? No one is asking them.
• 23 August 2021: Frankly, most people are over it. They are threatening more draconian lockdown restrictions every day. There needs to be a deadline.
• 23 August 2021: It’s a rubbish plan - made by people with nice cushy white collar/bureaucrat jobs they can do from home. People are struggling. Easy for those without kids and secure, salary job. To hold people under house arrest without no end in sight is cruel and unusual.
• 23 August 2021: People already are. What are the stats for suicide and attempted suicide, DV murders, what about long term as people go bankrupt or lose their businesses?

• 22 August 2021: So you get to tell me there is “no point in this discussion”, when you raised it? Are you telling me that women are attracted to men who issue rape and death threats? That was the crux of the OP and that appears to be what you are implying. Or was it women are to blame for

• 22 August 2021: Please explain what you mean by women receiving rape, torture and death threats by TRAs should provide “evidence based science and medicine” for this?

• 15 August 2021: Hubbard is a male. You know it, I know it, the whole world knows it. It is a dangerous farce that you are participating in.
• 15 August 2021: Hate to break it to you Dave, but the vast majority of people support the female only sports category. All the polling is in our favour. It’s decision-makers like the IOC and our own Sport Australia and AHRC that are out-of-touch. The backlash will be fierce.
• 15 August 2021: There is very clear and credible evidence that demonstrates males retain a performance advantage after testosterone suppression. It is simply idiotic to posit that males are not faster, bigger, stronger and larger.

• 11 August 2021: I get your point but there is a difference between say the systems of law and money, and the material reality of our biological sex. Humans imbue those systems with value and meaning, biology exists whether we accept it or not.

• 9 August 2021: When you say "rights" what do you mean, exactly? Because no one has ever said a person with a trans identity is not entitled to the same human rights as everyone else. As you pointed out, sport is the obvious one - identities cannot override bodies.

• 8 August 2021: That is “gender reassignment” isn’t it? Not “gender identity”. GR definition is incredibly vague and encompasses anyone even simply “proposing” to undergo surgery to change their “physiology”. So what does that even mean? What surgeries does it apply to? How do you prove it?
• 8 August 2021: There has been much fiddling around of the definitions of “man” and “woman” and replacing “opposite sex” with “different sex” in order to accommodate this brave new world of “sex is a spectrum” (including the SSM legislation) - although still waiting for the spectrum of gametes!
• 8 August 2021: It’s plain old-fashioned homophobia and lesbophobia rebranded and repackaged. Clear demonstration of how gender identity ideology is regressive and discriminatory.
• 8 August 2021: …women’s rights being eroded and women being harmed. I don’t see why we couldn’t have simply used stereotypes as the basis for discrimination w/o all this confusion. As it stands, sex should be given primacy over GI when in conflict. That’s the easiest solution that I can see.
• 8 August 2021: I would like to see the GI protected attribute withdrawn, but I am realist, at this stage it is unlikely there is enough political appetite in Oz to do so. I suspect it will happen once it starts getting tested in HC and we have absurd outcomes, or enough examples of

• 8 August 2021: It’s absolutely shocking isn’t it? Right there in the Consensus itself. They are kidding themselves if they don’t think this won’t be exploited. Once people say the magic word “trans”, normal rules do not apply. All Anti-Doping rules and principles out the window.

• 8 August 2021: These athletes are biological males - they have Y chromosomes, testes, male level testosterone & androgenised bodies that are receptive to testosterone. Born with ambiguous genitalia they were “assigned” female at birth. This is explained in detail in CAS Semenya decision.
• 8 August 2021: It’s weird because all the support I’ve had comes from every walk of life, and the overwhelmingly supportive comments all over social media in relation to protecting women’s sports tells me OJ doesn’t realise his Twatter echo chamber is not reflective of society.
• 8 August 2021: 7 kids AND a doctor?
• 8 August 2021: OJ on the back foot for once - despite his exhortations to contrary, tide is turning in our favour.
• 8 August 2021: And our SDA, rightly or wrongly (wrongly IMO but it’s what has happened) protects males, even though it’s original purpose was to eliminate discrimination against females in public life, we have strayed from that and I assert it has no constitutional validity.
• 8 August 2021: Australian federal & state law have “gender identity” & “transgender”. Definitions are incoherent & absurd, it’s a big mess, they should be withdrawn. GNC people have protection under sex discrimination law for not performing sex specific stereotypes - no need for GI protections.
• 8 August 2021: Yes, a dreadful decision for women’s rights, very convoluted, and the T, as usual doing a Denton’s, piggybacking on LGB. I preferred Alito’s dissenting opinion.
• 8 August 2021: Because they are gender non-conforming, they should not be discriminated against because they do not perform sex-specific stereotypes. That is preferable to this nonsense characteristics of “gender identity”.
• 7 August 2021: Which female athletes?
• 7 August 2021: @StoneMonkey83 @tinestram @___Former__exst What an entirely idiotic statement - for example, the American Civil War was fought the previous century over SLAVERY. And who won? NZ and Aust already had women’s vote. Gender identity ideology is not remotely the same thing as racism and sexism. It’s a neo religion.
• 7 August 2021: Please provide the science to demonstrate there is no male performance advantage in sport, humans can change sex or that human gametes come on a spectrum. Also that “gender identity” is “innate” yet “fluid”. I’ll wait.
• 7 August 2021: TBF people with trans identity who can face discrimination in housing, employment for being GNC etc. but they could be protected under sex discrimination law without having to create entirely new (incoherent) category of gender identity in legislation.
• 7 August 2021: None of this ideology is coherent
• 7 August 2021: Yes. The parliamentarians represent the people, or have you forgotten how a democracy works? I suspect if we did these polls in another year, the public will be more in our favour. Gender identity ideology is based on nebulous vague concepts about feelings, it won’t survive.

• 7 August 2021: Do you doubt their credibility? Or are you simply trying to detract from the findings? Which simply reflect polls done in other jurisdictions - UK, US, Ireland etc. Public sentiment is firmly on the side of biological reality despite what TRAs claim on Twitter.

• 6 August 2021: I agree entirely. Nothing about this is reasoned or evidenced. Looks like Harper and friends will have to fall back on the old trusty TRA argument of hurt feelings, inclusion above all else, or manufactured and misrepresented suicide rates.
• 6 August 2021: Surrogacy is exploitation of women, and a human rights violation. https://nordicmodelnow.org/tag/surrogacy/
• 6 August 2021: Of course everyone’s experience is different. But that does not mitigate the fact that separating an infant from its mother is inhumane, and that breastfeeding is best for baby.
• 6 August 2021: So now that the evidence shows that artificially reducing testosterone does NOT mitigate advantage, Harper is now arguing some advantage is okay provided it’s not “overwhelming” & allows “meaningful” competition. So who decides the meaning of those two words? Harper?
• 6 August 2021: So you don’t have first hand experience of the symbiotic mother-baby dyad then?
• 6 August 2021: But you yourself have not breastfed? So you have no idea what it is like? No idea what it’s like to feed babies every 3 hours for weeks on end, the symbiotic relationship, facilitates bonding b/w mother and baby w/ hormones, how mother’s milk adjusts itself to nourish baby best?
• 6 August 2021: Ahh okay, your friend told you how all this works then? So you have no lived experience on this issue?
• 6 August 2021: It is not in the best interest of a newborn infant to separate baby from mother. And it is in the best interest of baby to receive mother’s milk from her breast. Have you birthed or fed children yourself?
• 6 August 2021: Colostrum is referred to as “liquid gold” by midwives. All infants can latch on, the problem is overwhelmingly modern society and modern life that does not support and protect breastfeeding mothers. Mother’s milk cannot be replicated.

• 6 August 2021: Could it be the men who wish to feed infants using a chemically and artificially hormonally induced excretion? Like the one who filmed himself doing so and shared it online recently? Because in any other context this would be sexual abuse and exploitation of babies.
• 6 August 2021: Why are the tiny number of women who do suffer gender dysphoria and become pregnant, needing specialised care and compassion, being weaponised in this toxic debate?
• 6 August 2021: Chestfeeding. Pregnant Person. Human Milk. Gestating Parent. This is erasure of women from the process of human reproduction, and our rightful place as mothers. Who is benefitting from this horrible distortion of language?

• 22 July 2021: No. I will NOT be forced into compelled speech, I do NOT adhere to gender identity ideology. You have no right to police my speech. Bodies play sport, not identities therefore I will use reality-based language. “Being kind” has got women’s rights going backwards,

• 22 July 2021: There is a reason the other side only ever publish photos of these male athletes on their own, it’s instantly recognisable that they enjoy an huge physical advantage otherwise.
• 22 July 2021: Segregating sport by sex is not remotely the same thing as what you are referring to. Males have a performance advantage due to their androgenised physique, having female only category enables women to compete, otherwise we would only ever see males taking the podium.

• 21 July 2021: You are talking about a woman as a person, congratulations. We are talking about biological sex, of which there are two - male & female, upon which sports categories are divided. Feelings and identity do not dictate your sex. Feelings and identities do not play sport. Bodies do.
• 21 July 2021: If people consciously choose to sign up for a mixed sex sport, that is one thing. But males physiology means they hold performance advantage in strength, stamina, size and speed for every single sport except equestrian, rhythmic gymnastics and ultra marathon.

• 20 July 2021: So close to getting it, but can't quite shake the gender woo. It is regressive, harmful & sexist to teach a child they "ARE" the opposite sex because they like toys, colours or clothes that are currently reserved for the opposite sex. Whatever happened to letting kids be kids? https://twitter.com/WeeMissBea/status/1269635143024676866
• 20 July 2021: So you don't believe the women in the video, but we are all supposed to instantly believe a man when he suddenly declares he is a woman and then upend society to accommodate his needs?
• 20 July 2021: Give me one example of a woman "sneaking into" a woman's locker room to see children. What an outrageous and ridiculous thing to say. Stop blaming women for the crimes of male predators.
• 20 July 2021: Its not loaded, you just don't want to answer it, because it clearly demonstrates the rampant misogyny at the heart of gender theory.
• 20 July 2021: It is a simple straight forward question. Sex is immutable, observable and objective. Identity is subjective, culturally relative, based on feelings and performance of stereotypes. You are deliberately conflating the two to obstruct women's rights to have boundaries.
• 19 July 2021: How is it “biased”? You seem to be confusing “did not like” with bias. To accuse three UK HC judges of “bias”, including the Queen’s Bench President, is extremely serious.
• 19 July 2021: Including males in the female sports category excludes women and girls. This is how we deal with “inclusivity” -men need to be more inclusive of gender non-conforming males instead of expecting women’s sports to become a dumping group for mediocre and weak men.

• 18 July 2021: TRAs are always going on about “trans rights” so I ask them what they mean when they say it. In Australia, they enjoy exactly the same rights as everyone else. IMO they are “demands” - that women accommodate them & that society goes along with their self-declared identities.
• 18 July 2021: How does allowing male-bodied people in spaces where women and children are vulnerable, in a state of undress or asleep, achieve that aim? Or telling women they are now menstruators but men who claim a female identity are “women”?
• 18 July 2021: When you say “trans rights”, what exactly do you mean?

• 17 July 2021: How much money is the NHS wasting by asking that question? Time is money, asking such a question likely triggers a conversation…extends the consult by X minutes, extrapolate that over every person presenting for medical care in the UK.
• 17 July 2021: …which includes rescission, restoring the parties to the position they were in prior to the entry into the contract. Spousal veto is arguably the mechanism that provides a “rescission” option to a person when their spouse decides to identify as the other sex.

• 16 July 2021: For full disclosure was raised Catholic, but would regard myself as lapsed and non-religious. The Catholic Sydney Diocese does not support the teaching of gender identity ideology in schools. https://www.catholicweekly.com.au/law-change-would-prevent-weaponising-activists-through-schools-says-education-leader/
• 16 July 2021: Sperm and egg. That’s it. Your body is organised around one or the other. Disorders or variations do not negate that.
• 16 July 2021: My words exactly!
• 16 July 2021: My lovely dad asked me to explain the pronoun thing to him. Once we’d gotten through the inevitable response of amazement and incredulity, he said (as an almost retired surgeon): “Well just tell them that your pronouns are genotype-based”.
• 16 July 2021: Thank you Jo @jk_rowling for giving so many of us the courage to hold firm against the wokescolds. My three little girls adore your books, they love that the woman who wrote Harry Potter stands strong for them, & other little girls, everywhere.
• 16 July 2021: Queen of the Tervens has graced us all with another missive. Thank you @jk_rowling for giving so many of us the courage to hold firm against the wokescolds.

• 16 July 2021: What about the HR department of a corporation???
• 16 July 2021: And I am so sorry about your daughter, I cannot imagine how brutally painful it must be to watch your precious girl do that to herself in service of an ideology that will not relieve her distress.
• 16 July 2021: All good! That snarky tweet was more directed at the person with the silly billboard not you….
• 16 July 2021: And then we will have to deal with the backlash….
• 16 July 2021: We have receipts
• 16 July 2021: The conservative, reality-based universities will flourish
• 16 July 2021: That’s an oxymoron if I’ve ever heard one. Luxury belief perhaps.
• 16 July 2021: Gender identity is a #luxurybelief
• 16 July 2021: It’s a luxury, first-world belief. I’m in lockdown with three little girls, homeschooling and trying to WFH while my partner does long hours out of the house running his business….I wish I had the time to navel gaze about my inner-felt sense of “gender”.
• 16 July 2021: Are those angry young people seriously scared of a group of women meeting to discuss their rights?
• 16 July 2021: Trans is blue, pink and white….that looks distinctly like green, purple and white to me, the suffragette colours, the colour of the women’s movement.
• 16 July 2021: Complete and utter bullshit. The word WOMAN belongs to adult human females. You can’t have it for your ideological nonsense. We don’t consent. https://twitter.com/tara_pond/status/1415585581766045696
• 15 July 2021: I wouldn’t half be chuffed to have a Baroness of the Realm say “do come for tea” though!
• 15 July 2021: I’m a big fan of mocktails myself @PauleyJ8 !
• 15 July 2021: I think we can agree on the “bullying” at least

• 14 July 2021: Let’s start a “Foul Hag” Club! We could have our inaugural meeting over cocktails in Salamanca 😊
• 14 July 2021: First time I’ve been referred to as a “foul hag”. I love it when they resort to insults and ad hominems, it means they have no substantive points to make. I presume they concede the debate now? @TasmanianGreens https://twitter.com/stoatlyl/status/1415446463098806272

• 14 July 2021: The new sacred cow class…beyond reproach and more than just us mere mortals.
• 14 July 2021: Barnaby Joyce raised the issue of men and boys in women’s sports in the House of Representatives, he also approached the Minister for Sport on this issue.
• 14 July 2021: Dr. Michelle Telfer, Royal Melbourne Children’s Hospital Gender Clinic, relied on that statistic on ABC’s Australian Story program to justify her continued program of putting children on a medicalised pathway. https://www.abc.net.au/austory/a-balancing-act/13352452
• 14 July 2021: What is a “transwoman” Deborah? It’s concerning an MP is openly in thrall to an ideology.
• 14 July 2021: Indeed! Onward and upward.
• 14 July 2021: No. Do they let women compete in their transgender beauty pageants?
• 14 July 2021: I am infinitely grateful I came of age prior to social media….
• 14 July 2021: Angie you are an inspiration! Courage lends to courage….we must keep speaking up for those who cannot.
• 14 July 2021: That’s correct. The ViC bill will be enacted in February. Coalition for Biological Reality on FB is a good place to start for Australia. https://dsf.newscorpaustralia.com/heraldsun/subscription/
• 14 July 2021: I did wonder if that was ironic
• 14 July 2021: Of course not, because they are female, and they do not have the performance advantages that biological males enjoy.
• 14 July 2021: The word of women, children & others affected by gender identity & inclusion policies is never enough and high court standard evidence is demanded. Yet men simply utter “I identify as a woman” & women’s rights, child safeguarding & biological reality are immediately destroyed?
• 14 July 2021: Another mediocre male has grown his hair long and now LARPing in women’s sports. Average, aged out and failed men have found an avenue to be sports champions and feted as brave and stunning. Women and girls paying the price. @SWS_australasia @SaveWomensSport https://twitter.com/diarideterrassa/status/1074380269401096198
• 13 July 2021: NZ High Court said SUFW are not “hateful”, do you presume to know better? Calling women and women’s groups “hateful” because they acknowledge the reality of biological doesn’t work anymore.
• 13 July 2021: What were these “derogatory” and “harmful” comments? What it criticism of gender identity ideology? Sex-based language? Women discussing their concerns? Fighting for their rights?

• 13 July 2021: I don’t think Rodney has figured that out
• 13 July 2021: The owner of the building renting space to the billboard company has taken down the billboard entirely in defence of women!
• 13 July 2021: speak if people from the opposite side are invited too. TLRI were invited but declined, and clearly the transperson on the panel escaped his notice. I wonder if a token T8RF has been invited to any Tasmanian Pride or Progress or Rainbow panels?
• 13 July 2021: 8. Subjective feelings of “love” and “strength”, and nebulous concepts such as “inclusion and diversity” (that actually exclude women and anyone who disagrees with them) do not preclude people from having the right to talk about laws that affect them; 9. Rodney says we can only
• 13 July 2021: 7. This “vulnerable” group receives millions in funding from Australian governments, corporations and billionaire philanthropists; 8. This “vulnerable” group had a billboard pulled down in NZ in 24 hours because apparently the existence of women is “upsetting”;
• 13 July 2021: Characteristic in Commonwealth and state law; 6. This “vulnerable” community manages to get legislation through by stealth, has access to international bodies like to UN and IOC to directly execute policy in their favour at the expense of other protected groups;
• 13 July 2021: 4. The global pushback on male inclusion in women’s sport has apparently escaped Rodney’s notice; 5. Rodney thinks people are only allowed to gather to speak on issues in law if we meet some ethereal benchmark of “equality and inclusion” even though SEX does exist as a protected
• 13 July 2021: According Rodney: 1. Only Tasmanians can talk to other Tasmanians, no mainlanders; 2. We are funded by the right and paid to speak (laughable, we are self-funded as speakers); 3. Women are only allowed to advocate on issues that he approves of; https://www.facebook.com/608211810/posts/10158108273136811/?d=n
• 13 July 2021: The existence of women upsets the community. How is that not hateful or bigoted or discrimination towards women?
• 13 July 2021: The most “vulnerable, oppressed and marginalised” argument isn’t really holding up anymore.
• 13 July 2021: @SpeakUp4WomenNZ billboard taken down within 24 hours “We will not be silenced. We will hold our event. We will continue to advance conversations about the law and how we can deal with the tensions between biological sex and gender identity in practice.” https://speakupforwomen.nz/sufw_press_release/we-will-not-shush/

• 12 July 2021: By whom? Women in the movement who have donated? By buying these things ourselves? In fact, evidence shows, the international LGBTIQ+++ movement is amply funded by right wing, corporates and government. So tell me, which is the grassroots movement?
• 12 July 2021: I will have to watch in the morning…I can’t sleep if I watch such propaganda last thing before bed!

• 12 July 2021: I would love to go to Scotland, hoping once we can travel internationally again there will be some terven conventions to go to!
• 12 July 2021: government departments and private sector are pushing through all sorts of pro-gender policies. Correction, some states, VIC, are really pushing it but federal parliament is largely ignoring the problem, as is our media. Scot govt is a nightmare - Sturgeon has betrayed women!
• 12 July 2021: I'm in Australia, but we are in close contact with NZ. We already have gender identity enshrined in Australian legislation and its embedded into our institutions, baked into policy, its a disaster. Our government is not as hellbent on enshrining anything into legislation, but
• 12 July 2021: Not sure we haven't regressed somewhat to the penal colonies of old, no one is allowed to leave at the moment!
• 12 July 2021: My Scots also extends to "dinnae fash yersel", Sassenach and "pog ma mahon" (thanks to Jamie Fraser)
• 12 July 2021: Well to be fair, Australia and NZ were technically the colonies.... 😊
• 12 July 2021: I think it was more of a "imitation is the best form of flattery" more than a co-opting of the hashtag because the original is good enough (this is where an edit function would be good). Scottish women are deeply inspirational to us down here - your movement gives us hope!
• 12 July 2021: I hear what you are saying here, no offence was intended! I think the point was to "localise" the resistance to NZ. I read up on Scots language after reading the Outlander series (my ancestors are Scottish), so I will be mindful to respect my Scottish sisters in future.
• 12 July 2021: Oh yikes....I doubt any offence was meant! I can see what you all mean, and in hindsight I should have put #WomenWontWeesht on this tweet as well. Your points are noted!
• 12 July 2021: Oh dear....I doubt any offence was meant!
• 12 July 2021: They say "shush" in NZ....I took it from the @speakup4womennz facebook post!
• 12 July 2021: As the cofounder of Save Women's Sports Australasia I can categorically refute that statement, in fact, we don't even have a bank account. The women fighting on the sports front do not have any funds, we pay for any running costs ourselves out of our own pockets.

• 12 July 2021: In LibertyWorks Inc v Commonwealth of Australia, the Court held that the "implied freedom of political communication was not impermissibly infringed by a requirement to register before undertaking communication activities on behalf of a foreign entity (registration requirement)".
• 12 July 2021: We Aussies would like to take the cake on this one - High Court in LibertyWorks-v-Cth this month decided that anyone who is not a citizen or a resident has to register with the Australian Taxation Office to "communicate on political & govt. matters"
