We let 230lb women play RUGBY against 100lb women--a difference of 130lbs.
But Terfs are worried about a trans woman who might be 10lbs heavier on average than the AVERAGE for cis women?
See, you're worried about something that is a full order of magnitude smaller.
Scott Morrison has taken $1000 from every Australian adult and child and given it to Gerry Harvey, Margaret Court, Brian Houston and other billionaires.
If trans women are so dominant in women's swimming how come not a single trans woman has ever qualified to compete in the last 5 Olympic games or 20 world swimming championships in a single event?
So you treat trans women like men, which opens up a problem, what do you do with trans men? If trans women should be treated like men, then trans men should be treated like women. So now people like this (shown below) are forced to use women's bathroom.

In the criminal justice system, offenses against statues are considered especially heinous.
In Australia, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Statue Unit. These are their stories.

Nsw premier says everyone makes mistakes as he defends MP Peter Poulos who leaked explicit photos of female rival. Forgetting the bread at the shop is a mistake sending explicit photos of a woman is not a mistake it's calculated misogyny and bullying.
The decision of three actors in the Sydney Theatre Company's new production of The Seagull to wear the keffiyeh during curtain call sparked a frenzy of condemnation from members of the Jewish community.

Can we flood Twitter with some trans โค๏ธ every trans person in Australia is living breathing and sadly to often dying from these atrocious transphobic political debates. It dehumanises us trans & gender diverse peeps. We do it hard enough.

Teachers can't get kids to do their homework let alone be able to swap the student's sexes. And where are all these thousands of forced sex swaps?

โฉ trans people are not mutilated at any age. My gender confirmation surgery saved my life. To describe my surgery as mutilation has massively triggered my PTSD. Deves publicly named me as a toilet predator to fear.
Poor poor Israel Folou & Katherine Deves, all they wanted to do was ostracise vulnerable minority groups from society and not be criticized for it. They both played the victim here.
Helen Joyce is being exposed as a mere layman in the Federal Court Of Australia right now. The justice is scathing in pointing out Joyce is no expert on trans people or the Australian constitution. She isnโt going to be allowed to provide verbal or written evidence. This is ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธโค๏ธ

Australia Day is when we are expected to selectively forget about what happened in the past so that we can move forward as a better country, and ANZAC Day is when we are told to never forget about what happened in the past so that we can move forward as a better country.
Remember when we had that spate of blokes getting killed by one punch attacks?
No one blamed them for being there.
No one asked if they brought it on themselves.
Instead they increased the penalty for the perpetrators.
Because men were able to empathise with the victims.
Being angry over someone else's sexuality or gender identity is like being angry over what some stranger in the car behind you orders in the Maccas drive-thru.

Since the IOC has created a rule for trans athletes to compete in 2003, over 71,000 people have become Olympians. Out of those 71,000 Olympians a total of 2 have been trans women & one came dead last the other came 37th out of 42.

I had my first wanker last night in my Taxi. It took the mini hulk about 100m to get sexual another 100m to try and touch my leg and another 100m for me to kick him out, after about 5 minutes of threats & mini hulk throwing my water bottle at me. Broken Hill Police were awesomeโค๏ธ
The number of trans athletes is tiny and the issue is being overseen by the different sports' codes. Why doesn't Deves focus her attention on the kids of all genders, who missed out on sports due to the Liberals' sports rorts?
In a town like Wilcannia instead of the govt paying a private mob 11k per yr for an indue card & 15k to a private employment service agency to keep an unemployed person in Wilcannia on a WFD activity. How about the govt train & employ these people as age & disability carers.
Happy 80th birthday Alan Jones! Best present? His latestratings. On his Sky TV debut last year, he averaged 84,750. After a year of steady decline, this week he hit 45,000, his lowest ever figure, behind Peta Credlin on 67,000, Andrew Bolt on 60,000 and Paul Murray on 51,000.

When I was homeless in 2011, I was given the most beautiful meal at the Sikh Temple in Gelnwood. It was the first day in 12 months that I felt completely safe and I was not being judged. I will be forever grateful for that day.
Jobseekers receive less per month per than the jobservice providers receive for each individual seeker up to $1330 per month per job seeker. And this is not to find work it's to ensure mutual obligations are fulfilled.
@CathyHayward7
It's so sad we need to have this conversation with our daughters & grandaughters generation after generation. I tell my 3 daughters & 6 granddaughters referring to such incidents simply as โcatcallingโ is infuriating. The term minimises the act as well as the impact.
Even if Katherine Deves fails to receive one vote & the LNP is booted from government. Deves legacy will be that she has pumped unscientific & harmful opinions about trans kids & people into the heart of the news cycle for 3 straight weeks. The damage has already been done.
....but they chose Kirsti Brooke, and I loved it, I just owned it straight away. And particularly because they chose it, it was like what a special thing to have your children and your wife pick your name.

Two big differences here. The East Germans won a swag of Olympic Medals and broke a litany of world records whereas trans women have won a total of zero Olympic Medals over 10 Olympic Game and no trans women has ever broken a single elite female world sports record ever.
$43 for loaf of bread, toilet paper, bacon, milk and can of coke, how ridiculous.
What's worse the store is owned and operated by a Dubbo based employment services provider who also manages the local work for the dole program & Centrelink office in Wilcannia.

Going back to the 1960โs and the XY/XX chromosomes classification makes no historical, scientific, ethical, legal or social sense.
Recognizing this, the IOC last engaged in chromosomal testing of athletes in 1996 & formally banned the practice in 1999.
