It's time to restore common sense to Australian law!
Last week, the Full Federal Court ruled against Giggle for Girls — a women-only app that excluded a biological male who identifies as female.
The Tickle v Giggle case was about far more than one social media app. It was about whether Australian law still recognises biological sex in any meaningful way.
The Court’s decision has major implications for:
- women’s spaces;
- female sport;
- change rooms and refuges;
- freedom of association;
- and freedom to speak plainly about biological reality.
This situation did not arise overnight.
In 2013, the Gillard Labor Government amended the Sex Discrimination Act to include “gender identity” protections.
More than a decade later, we are now seeing the consequences play out.
Most Australians would be compassionate towards people experiencing gender dysphoria.
But compassion should never require society to deny reality.
That’s why AFC is urging supporters to contact their local federal MP and senators NOW.
We are calling for amendments to the Sex Discrimination Act that:
- define sex biologically;
- protect lawful single-sex spaces for women and girls;
- defend freedom of speech and association;
- and restore common sense to Australian law.
Suggested wording is provided, but you can also use your own words.
The process only takes 2 minutes.
