This is not true. You do not have a policy to amend the Sex Discrimination Act. Women are voting for One Nation on this issue, the only party with an actual policy. Please make this a policy position, and it needs to be more than putting sex back, it has to be a positive legally enforceable right to single sex spaces services and sports, required with a penalty for failure to provide. Fair Work Act amended so people don't lose jobs from calling a man a man. ENOUGH WITH SINGLE MPS raising this, the PARTY MUST DO SOMETHING.

Senator the Hon. Michaelia Cash
The Full Federal Court’s decision in Tickle v Giggle confirms the original finding that the Giggle for Girls app unlawfully discriminated against Roxanne Tickle. The Coalition’s position remains clear: women and girls have a right to safe, private and fair single-sex spaces. That is not controversial. It is common sense. Single-sex spaces exist for important reasons - safety, privacy, dignity and fairness and the Coalition will continue to stand up for the rights of women and girls.

The fight to restore women’s sex class rights has to become political. Don’t vote for any candidate who won’t put their hand up in parliament to repeal the 2013 amendments to the Sex Discrimination Act that allowed men into women’s-only spaces.

@LibbyConnors @ActiveLesbians @bbarclay9 Reading the judgement makes it even worse. Their """argument""" is "this law has subcategories, so we can't treat subcategories differently." They LITERALLY claim excluding transwomen means excluding lesbians or breastfeeding women.

@GemmaTognini @salltweets Sky Jews Australia is still pushing the big distraction that is a man with a cock in his frock suing an All-Australian girl. Gotta keep those 'culture-wars' going. Ben Shapiro will be so proud of you. Keeps the eyeballs off the genocide & ethnic cleansing in Gaza.

Great to see the hypocrisy of these professional women who have abandoned women’s safe spaces. Gen X women are an anti-suffragette movement
Nathan Livingstone (MilkBarTV)@TheMilkBarTV

Devastating to see @salltweets lose her appeal in the Federal Court, with the ruling that women must share their spaces with biological men. Sall has dedicated years of her life to fighting this. Although this is a heartbreaking loss, I have no doubt she’ll continue her mission to campaign for women’s rights in Australia. This is just one of the videos I’ve made for Sall, highlighting the absurdity of it all.

Dear @JuliaGillard - on behalf of Australian women and girls who deserve the right to their own spaces, the right to say no to males invading them, and the chance to play sport fairly and safely - you are a disgraceful, misogynistic, fraud. Today’s ruling is on you. For shame.

🚨BREAKING 🚨 The courageous Sall Grover @salltweets has just been ordered to pay $20,000 compensation + additional legal costs of up to $100,000, as punishment for knowing that men are not women. Jason 'Roxy' Tickle, seen in the video below, has been harassing Grover for five years. The lawsuit he filed against her was based on his claim that he was discriminated against for being denied access to a women-only forum found on the app Grover developed, called Giggle. This has resulted in Australia's legal test case for whether or not "gender identity" should supersede, and thus erase, women's rights. Today we learned that the courts of Australia prioritize the feelings of men who claim to be women over the reality of actual women. Main Appeal Costs: Grover must pay the respondent's (Tickle's) costs for the appeal up to a maximum of $50,000. Cross-Appeal Costs: Grover must also pay the cross-appellants' (Tickle's) costs for the cross-appeal, up to a maximum of $50,000. When reading out the decision, Justice Melissa Perry said, "Ms Sally Grover and Giggle for Girls Proprietary Limited, engaged in unlawful direct discrimination against the respondent, Ms Roxanne Tickle, on the ground of her gender identity... ... thereby treating Ms Tickle, who is a transgender woman, less favourably than a woman designated female at birth, seeking access to the Giggle app... The appellants are to pay to the respondent a sum of $20,000 within 60 days." "...The appellants [must] pay the respondents' costs of the appeal up to a maximum of $50,000... The cross-respondents pay the cross-appellants' costs of the cross-appeal, as agreed or assessed, up to a maximum of $50,000." Tickle, the man who initiated the complaint, has been playing on a field hockey team for females - where he has said the youngest player is 15 - while also sharing photos of himself using the women's change room. On his personal Instagram account, Tickle has also shared photos of his underwear and dilators, jokes about sex toys, and as well has posted several cartoons drawn by a Canadian transgender diaper fetishist. The transgender movement enables the worst and most perverse men to utilize the law in order to terrorize women who oppose their displays of public fetishism and voyeurism. The demands of men such as Tickle, men with sexual pathologies, are taken seriously by the courts while women who oppose them are publicly slandered. Gender identity ideology reduces women and girls to a male fantasy and fetish. Donate to Sall's costs here 👇🏻 gigglecrowdfund.com #IStandWithSallGrover #TicklevGiggle #TicklevsGiggle
Sall Grover@salltweets

**Giggle v Tickle updates** • Tickle has applied to cross appeal, wanting the decision upgraded from “indirect discrimination” to “direct discrimination” + more $$$ in damages and $$$ in aggravated damages. • The Australian Human Rights sex discrimination Commissioner has once again applied to intervene. They intervened as amicus curiae in Tickle v Giggle and interpreted the law to favor gender identity over sex/legal sex over biological sex. • The Australian Christian Lobby has applied to intervene on the side of sex based rights. • The case management hearing is scheduled for February 12 at the Federal Court in Sydney. • It is likely that the appeal will be heard in August, 2025. This appeal is to the full Federal Court. That means 3 Federal Court judges not 1. Due to the cross appeal, the hearing is likely to go for 3-4 days rather than the usual 1 in an appeal. • The reason the Giggle appeal is to the full Federal Court and not the High Court is because the Tickle v Giggle decision got both facts about the case & facts about the law wrong. So it remains a Federal Court matter. • After a full Federal Court appeal decision, the side who didn’t get the decision in their favor can apply to go to the High Court. As I have said from the very beginning, I am willing to do that if that is what is necessary. • The Giggle legal team is Stuart Wood AM KC, Bridie Nolan, Anca Costin and Katherine Deves. • The next updates will be after the case management hearing & will address whether the cross appeal & interveners were permitted. • As always, thank you everyone for the endless support. It is invaluable to me. This has been a very long & stressful process for 3 years and it’s not over yet. Ultimately, I am very optimistic. In part because I know I am right - men are not women - but also because it is clear that the global capture of gender ideology is falling. • For more information & donations, please visit gigglecrowdfund.com 🩷

@ActiveLesbians @bbarclay9 Sall broke down in court. I think we all felt like joining her. So painful to hear the judge claim there is only one way to interpret SDA. The major parties who passed this legislation without consulting the Australian people have forced one young woman to bear this idiocy

Funny, isn’t it, how women who’ve been raped or beaten are accused of ‘weaponising’ their trauma when they ask for male-free spaces, but trans-identified men who claim using the Gents has a higher mortality rate than armed combat are met with credulity and simpering concern.

"The Male & Female prisoners shall be confined in separate buildings or parts of the Prison, so as to prevent them from seeing conversing or holding any intercourse with each other" It is only recently that people who should know better lost their mind. kpssinfo.org/1823-gaols-act…

@jk_rowling Look at this remarkable piece of legislation and take note that women in prisons in England and Wales were safer 200 years ago 😵‍💫

Australia’s pronoun badge-wearing Sex Discrimination Commissioner is confused about what her actual job is. She’s added on the “Advocate for the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community” because it’s “one of her priorities.” It is literally not her job! @SenatorBlyth @SenatorClaire
