The Olympic policy is changing, but local rules may not be.
From LA28, the IOC says female-category eligibility at its events will be limited to biological females using a one-time SRY screening.
What does this mean locally? https://t.co/znzdxsRSKb
Thank you, @SenatorCash, for raising women’s sex-based rights. Protecting female-only services can coexist with respectful alternatives for others. Australia needs clear, workable policy.

What is a woman?
Mr Albanese evidently does not know.
I introduced legislation to protect biological women. Labor blocked it.
This is a disgrace.
Common sense must prevail.
@SenatorCash Senator Cash, thank you for raising this. Women should be able to access female-only services and spaces, with respectful alternatives available for everyone. Clear law and practical policy matter.
@SAshC_Opinions Exactly. The question is not whether one group deserves protection. It is whether those protections can be provided without removing privacy, safety and sex-based rights from women and girls. Good law should be able to address both clearly and fairly. 🧡
Thank you, @SenatorBlyth, for putting this clearly on the parliamentary record.
Women are not asking for special treatment. They are asking for laws that recognise biological sex where it matters, including safety, privacy, sport, services and female-only spaces.
When definitions become unclear, women are left to test their rights through complaints, tribunals and costly court cases. Parliament has a responsibility to provide clear, practical protections.

Only 23% of women surveyed felt comfortable expressing political views online, compared with almost 40% of men.
When women stay silent, their perspectives disappear from the conversation.
What would help more women speak honestly online?

Australia is now moving in a different legal direction from the UK and US on women’s sex-based rights.
Recent court decisions overseas have recognised that biological sex still matters in women’s sport and single-sex protections. In Australia, the Giggle v Tickle ruling has left women asking whether female-only spaces can still be meaningfully protected.

Queens of Pole is facing a costly legal battle after trying to maintain a female-only fitness space.
Whatever your views, a small business owner should not have to face this alone while an important question about women’s privacy, safety and freedom of association is tested through the courts.

Women’s sport exists to give female athletes a fair chance to participate, progress and succeed.
When sex is disregarded, women and girls can lose podium places, records, prize money, roster spots, privacy and safety.
These impacts deserve to be documented, discussed and taken seriously.

Queens of Pole was created as a female-only studio for teenagers, mothers and grandmothers, including women who value privacy and a women-only environment.
Its owner is now reportedly facing a $30,000 claim after declining membership to a transgender applicant.
This is why Australia needs clear, workable protection for legitimate female-only spaces.

Teenagers, mothers and grandmothers joined this studio knowing it was created specifically for women.
Now its owner is reportedly facing a $30,000 legal claim for trying to maintain that female-only boundary.
How many women must be taken through complaints and tribunals before the law provides clear protection for women-only spaces?
A wonderful recognition of @salltweets courage and persistence.
Her legal fight has helped bring national attention to a question many women are asking: can female-only spaces still be protected under Australian law?

“Family First National Director and NSW Legislative Council lead candidate Lyle Shelton has nominated women’s rights advocate Sall Grover for the Australian Human Rights Commission’s 2026 Human Rights Medal and is urging Australians to do the same before nominations close on Monday, 3 August..”
😂😂😂 thank you @LyleShelton. It’s an honor just to be nominated 😂
People should be free to live as they choose, and they should be treated with dignity.
But that does not require women to deny biological sex, accept compelled speech or give up sex-based rights in sport, services and single-sex spaces.
The conversation becomes healthier when disagreement is allowed without threats, abuse or demands for silence.

I’ve just seen a post from yet another man who thinks my position has shifted since I wrote my 2020 essay about gender identity ideology and the consequent clash of rights https://t.co/pasxBD1Hzl
For the avoidance of doubt, I stand by every word I wrote then. For instance: ‘woman isn’t a costume.’ If it surprises you that I say men don’t become women by wearing make up and dresses, you didn’t understand the essay. I’ve been crystal clear all along that I believe people are free to live and present themselves as the opposite sex if that’s what feels comfortable and authentic TO THEM. This appears to have been interpreted (most often, tellingly, by men) as ‘and it naturally follows that I, as a woman, will validate a man’s belief that he is now, to all intents and purposes, the same sex as me, and I will use only the speech he deems appropriate and will be very careful to protect his sensitive ego, no matter the cost to myself in pretending to believe a falsehood, or the loss of my own rights due to this pretence.’
Dress as you like within normal bounds of situational decency, wear lipstick, sequins and a beard if you want, call yourself whatever you like, have sex with any consenting adult you please: I wish you health, happiness and safety. What you don’t get is the power to compel my speech and belief.
When I call a man a man, I am speaking verifiable truth. It is essential to be able to accurately name sex when discussing fair sport, facilities and services for women and girls and the right of gay people not to be demonised for their same-sex attraction. In years to come, a lot of useful idiots are going to awake to the fact that they’ve been complicit in enormous harm done to women, girls, gay people who stood against the insanity, and some extremely vulnerable young people. I don’t doubt we’ll hear a lot of, ‘I thought I was just being kind.’ Such individuals, especially those in positions of power, should be asked why they never had anything to say about the loud, public, widespread unkindness directed against those who refused to adopt their fashionable, elitist beliefs, eg, the detransitioners being bullied and vilified by former ‘allies’, the whistleblowers who tried to stop an unregulated experiment on troubled children, the women who lost their careers and livelihoods by standing up for all women’s rights.
Some people appear to believe it a worse crime for a woman to call a man a man than for trans activists to call loudly and publicly for the assault and assassination of all women who refuse to bend the knee. I have never wished violence or any other kind of harm on a trans-identified person, but, like many other people who’ve defended women’s and girls’ rights over the past few years, I have received thousands of threats of death, rape and torture. The wilful blindness of those who bleat ‘both sides’ will rightly be judged harshly in times to come.
TL;DR Trans women aren’t women, and if that hurts your feelings, be grateful you live in a society where you are just as free to espouse gender ideology as I am to speak the truth. As Orwell said: ‘Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.’
This is why the distinction between respecting people and being compelled to affirm beliefs matters.
Women should be free to speak clearly about sex, fairness, safety and same-sex rights without threats, intimidation or pressure to surrender their own boundaries.
Thanks for sharing this @jk_rowling 🧡
@xx_xyathletics kept speaking up even after its advertising was restricted.
The message is simple: girls deserve sporting categories that protect fairness, safety and opportunity.
Women should not have to stay quiet to avoid criticism, and brands should not be penalised for defending female sport.

We launched @xx_xyathletics in March 2024 with this ad - Stand Up.
In June 2024 we were banned from advertising on @tiktok_us for this ad.
We never backed down. We stay focused on the girls who deserve fair & safe competition.
Thanks to Sophie for blowing the doors off.
@JenniferSey@xx_xyathletics@tiktok_us This is why more women speaking clearly matters.
Girls deserve fair and safe competition, and supporting that principle should not be treated as something platforms need to suppress.
Wonderful Ad!!
