One of the most thought provoking speeches I've seen in a while.
@Miss_Snuffy on how raising a generation to see the world through oppressors and the oppressed is changing the West.
If you don't have time, bookmark it. It's worth every second.
WATCH:
The government sought court costs from a small group of women fighting to hold a lesbian only event. Yet they keep publicly denying it.
They are clearly aware what a bad look it is for the government to seek costs from everyday citizens defending their human rights.
In Adelaide, @AusHumanRights told women that opposing @ActiveLesbians in court was "never about privileging one set of rights over another." The costs matter was still not addressed & CEDAW reinterpretation is on the record @SenKatyG@MRowlandMP@UNSRVAW https://t.co/tBr4EsGbq8
🎙️New ep: Older women seeking female-only intimate care or needing protection from male violence may need to rely on exemptions & guidelines the Fed Court found deficient. We asked @AusHumanRights about this in ADL. @SenKatyG@MRowlandMP@UNSRVAW

More great work from @aawaaadvocacy: https://t.co/sOMx938OjE
The Chief Executive of @AusHumanRights stated publicly in Adelaide this week that they did not seek costs from us. We’ll just leave this extract from their Court Submission here (again):
I’ve decided to wear a hijab full-time to protect my modesty and piety. No more being reduced to a mere object by wandering eyes — inshallah, may this fabric protect me from the toxic male gaze.
Ladies and gays, remember: a man’s virtue hides behind his veil 🙏 #HijabForHim
@karlstefanovic@elonmusk I swear if TERFs were platformed by mainstream media identities the “trans incursion” on women’s rights and child safeguarding would be over in weeks, not years.
The man who forced his newborn baby to suck on his nipples and claimed he was “breastfeeding” now wants $100K damages from the breastfeeding counsellor who was one of thousands of people to express their alarm and disgust.
Female‑only spaces are a practical, sex‑based response to patterned male violence, where women can be safe, speak freely & organise politically. We must be able to set sex‑based boundaries where our safety & organising require them & see them upheld in law https://t.co/Kj5g9860Rn
🎙️TUF: We discuss how female‑only spaces (refuges, wards, toilets & change rooms) were won thru organising against male violence, why they matter for women’s safety, dignity & participation & how all‑gender facilities & sex self‑ID are eroding protections https://t.co/pB0CVvYjZR
Anthony Morris KC then developed why, on Ms Sussex’s case, Mr Buckley’s claimed “induced lactation” is plainly a matter of public interest and public debate.
Mr Buckley has pleaded, in a public vilification proceeding, that he “induced lactation under the supervision and with the knowledge of medical professionals”.
Morris KC submitted that if that claim is true, it raises obvious scientific, medical and public interest questions.
If it is false or misleading, that also matters.
I will set out some of his submissions in his own words.
