    Reading this exchange from Tickle v Giggle one could be mistaken that Tickle's lawyers forgetting them (I have no idea how they identify) is acting for Tickle. Seems to be making good arguments in favour of the respondent.

    The last part of that exchange is iconic.

    Lawyer: Ms Tickle is a woman, isn’t she?

    Sall: Tickle is a biological male.

    Lawyer: Even where a person who was assigned male at birth transitions to a woman by having surgery, hormones, gets rid of facial hair, undergoes facial reconstruction, grows their hair long, wears make up, wears female clothes, describes themselves as a woman, introduces themselves as a woman, uses female changing rooms, changes their birth certificate – you don’t accept that is a woman do you?

    Sall: No.

    Lawyer: I suggest to you that in Australian society, the normal meaning of a woman is someone who has changed their birth certificate to say woman, what would you say to that?

    Sall: I don’t agree

    12x increase in the suicide rate post “gender affirming” care. The people pushing this need to be put in prison.

    @Bones it's like a religious cult for those people. Nothing in that report is remotely surprising, good to see something is finally being done about it though

    Scores of actresses turn down roles in play critical of JK Rowling’s gender views

    Scores of actresses turn down roles in play critical of JK Rowling’s gender views

    Stage production set to debut at the Edinburgh Fringe has already caused outrage over its explicit working title

    A play that criticises JK Rowling’s views on gender is struggling to cast women with 90 actresses so far rejecting parts. The stage production, which is set to debut at the Edinburgh Fringe, has already caused outrage over a working title which labelled the gender-critical Harry Potter author a c----.

    The production is yet to cast any of the female roles, including that of Rowling herself.

    I'm probably not the best one for this task.

    So the trans community rally against hate speech but surely a play with that title is in itself hate speech ?

    The hypocrisy and lack of self awareness is just ludicrous

    It's intersectionality. Hate speech can only go one way; JK is on the top line for most of this, therefore hate speech against her doesn't exist. I am not making this up.
