#KatherineDevesIsRight we have seen that the State has removed children under 16 from their parents for surgical intervention, first publicised case Nov 2020 in WA, where a gay autistic girl was removed for amputation of her breasts at 15 years old. But there's more .../1 Image
@michaelkoziol as early as Sept 2021 up to a 100 families have had their kids taken by the State, for 'gender affirming care' aka surgical alteration of bodies, amputations of breasts and genitalia of CHILDREN. I can personally confirm it. ONE HUNDRED + KIDS by now. #KathDeves Image
How is this happening you ask @michaelkoziol maybe you should do some research, cause it's there in black and white. When it comes to Gender Identity or Trans Ideology the State schools can transition a child without the consent or knowledge of the parents /3 #KathDevesIsRight Image
And it would amaze parents @michaelkoziol because needing to give a kid a Panadol, or to take a photo of them, or permission for a school trip requires permission by the School from the parent, right? So why would they think, that the school can socially & medically trans a kid? Image
Only in this situation @michaelkoziol gender identity affirmation, are parental rights suspended, even though a pathway of cross-sex hormones and puberty blockers lead to sterilization, sexual dysfunction, bone density issues and much more. #KatherineDevesIsRight Image
What happens next @michaelkoziol ? Once the school decides, the example Im using is the State of Victoria, the school decides to make a PLAN, that takes the child through all the stages of transitioning, #KatherineDeves LISTENED to LGB people that's how she knows about this! Image
What @michaelkoziol does this plan look like, it's a bit of conveyor belt it can start with changing names in the school, documentation... then social transitioning... Image
2 parts to social transitioning @michaelkoziol 1. the child, binders for girls, 97% find restricts breathing and causes chest and breast damage, boys in girls toilets, who cares if it bothers little girls? The parent of this little girl does bit.ly/36qRzKs Image
2nd part @michaelkoziol is often the collaboration of the WHOLE SCHOOL in perpetuating a lie, and if the school thinks it's okay, hiding the transitioning of their child from the parents. Nothing like other children learning from the school deceit is OKAY, if the school says so. Image
Next stage @michaelkoziol is Medical transitioning, things get interesting here, this involves castration and late-stage cancer drugs that are called 'puberty blockers' they're HARMFUL and EXPERIMENTAL. indefenceofchildren.org/puberty-blocke…, indefenceofchildren.org/puberty-blocke… Image
Almost inevitably kids that go on puberty blockers go next to cross-sex hormones, and I have no words for people who do this to children. So I understand why Kath Deves said what she said because #KatherineDevesIsRight ImageImage
I wish @michaelkoziol you were a journalist, do your homework. There are over 27,000 detransitioners on redit, now young adults regretting the decisions made in youth as 'mature minors'
indefenceofchildren.org/detransitoners
indefenceofchildren.org/detransition-r… Young people that #KathDeves has talked to Image
So yes @michaelkoziol given that she has met and talked to detransitioners and heard their stories, and knowing how many are affected. YES, she's speaking up for them and saying NO MORE stolen generations, not for white kids, brown kids not for ANY KIDS! #IStandWithKatherineDeves Image
I usually have this pinned to my profile, so I'm adding it here:
How you put in place laws that mandate irreversible
damage to children, that not only is fiercely defended but is essential for building a 5.2 trillion dollar industry. It's 9 minutes long.

I looked at that document All Gender Sanitary Facilities Consulation several weeks ago.
Heres notes on background, current status and proposed ammendments for your submission

Current Provisions and Issues
Background (Page 2)
NCC 2022, clause F4P1 Personal hygiene facilities:
Suitable sanitary facilities for personal hygiene must be provided in a convenient location within or associated with a building, to the degree necessary, appropriate to:The function or use of the building
The number and gender of the occupants
The disability or other particular needs of the occupants

Issues with Current Provisions:
Current Deemed to Satisfy provisions designate toilets as female, male, or unisex accessible. All-gender facilities could only be provided in addition to the existing minimums, incurring additional project costs.

Proposed Amendments

Change in Terminology (Page 2)Update terminology from ‘sex’ to ‘gender’ and ‘unisex’ to ‘accessible’ to modernize and standardize the language used in the NCC.

F4D3 Calculation of Number of Occupants and Facilities (Page 3)Unless the premises are used predominantly by one gender, sanitary facilities must be provided on the basis of a proportionate distribution of occupants.
In calculating the number of sanitary facilities, an accessible facility required for people with a disability may be counted once for each gender.

F4D4 Facilities in Class 3 to 9 Buildings (Page 3-4)Separate sanitary facilities for all genders must be provided except in specific permitted situations.

Specific Situations:
If not more than 10 people are employed, an accessible facility may be provided instead of separate facilities for each gender.

If the majority of employees are of one gender, not more than 2 employees of the other gender may share toilet facilities if the facilities are separated by walls, partitions, and doors for privacy.

F4D4(12) All-Gender Sanitary Facilities (Page 5)
All-gender sanitary facilities may be provided to meet the requirements where:
The building is only required to be provided with two individual closet pans, two separate all-gender sanitary facilities may be provided.

The building is required to be provided with three closet pans or urinals, these may be replaced with one male closet pan, one female closet pan, and one all-gender sanitary facility.
The building is required to provide four or more closet pans or urinals, up to 50% of all required fixtures may be converted to all-gender. The conversion to all-gender sanitary facilities must be taken equally from the provision of male or female sanitary facilities.

Rationale and Benefits

Rationale for Proposed Changes to Section F (Page 5-6)Improving inclusivity:
Gendered bathrooms are exclusionary and discomforting for gender-diverse individuals.
Additional benefits: Improved access for people with medical conditions, parents with young children, and high volume bathroom use situations.

Red tape reduction: Introduces a new Deemed to Satisfy pathway, reducing time and cost associated with developing and assessing a performance solution.

Voluntary and cost-effective: A voluntary solution that maintains the current project cost profile.

Privacy and safety: Provides a private and safe space for individuals uncomfortable or unsafe in gender-segregated facilities.
Maintaining accessibility: Reduces reliance on unisex accessible facilities, maintaining intended access levels for people with disabilities.

Gender diversity awareness and acceptance: Helps broaden community understanding and acceptance of diverse gender identities.

Rationale for Change in Terminology from ‘Sex’ to ‘Gender’ (Page 6)

Improving inclusivity: The term ‘gender’ is more encompassing and recognizes a spectrum of identities beyond binary male and female.

Gender diversity acceptance: Use of ‘gender’ respects diverse gender identities.
Contemporary language: The term ‘gender’ increasingly recognizes individuals according to their self-defined identity.

These sections of the document outline the proposed changes, the rationale behind these changes, and the intended benefits, focusing on inclusivity, privacy, safety, and the efficient provision of sanitary facilities.

Here are notes on the WHY we need single sex toilets (unfinnished blog post I'll use for the submission):

The existence and preservation of single-sex toilets address significant concerns related to safety, privacy, and comfort for women, men, the disabled, the elderly, and children. Adding gender-neutral facilities alongside existing bathroom provisions is a positive step towards diversity and inclusion. This approach advances the interests of men and women who identify as something else without compromising everyone else’s needs.

Safety Concerns
One of the primary arguments for maintaining single-sex toilets revolves around safety. These facilities often provide a secure space where individuals can feel safe from potential harassment or assault. This concern is particularly acute for women and girls who feel vulnerable in mixed-sex environments. Although not all fears are realized, the perception of safety significantly affects comfort and ease of use.

Studies from 2017-2018 in the UK report 134 incidents of sexual assault, voyeurism, and harassment in swimming pool changing rooms, with 120 occurring in gender-neutral facilities and only 14 in single-sex facilities (Gilligan 2018; Hosie 2018).

Mixed-sex facilities may exacerbate sexual harassment problems at work. In Australia, 39% of women have experienced workplace sexual harassment (Judd 2021). Single-sex spaces often provide a respite for women from their harassers. Making these spaces gender neutral can lead to women avoiding bathroom use, potentially causing health issues like kidney infections.

Discussions with Welsh school children revealed that girls were avoiding drinking water to reduce bathroom use due to period shaming from boys (Petter 2019).

Single-sex bathrooms serve as one of the few safe spaces where women can escape violent partners or inappropriate advances and seek help (AIHW 2018).

Privacy Needs
Privacy is another cornerstone in the debate over single-sex toilets. These facilities provide a level of privacy that is both expected and appreciated by users. In cultures and communities where modesty and separation of the sexes are valued, these toilets are essential. Moreover, managing medical or health-related needs such as menstruation, miscarriages, and incontinence is more discreet and comfortable in single-sex facilities.

One in four pregnancies end in miscarriage, often requiring immediate and private care, which single-sex bathrooms can provide.
Menstrual accidents, such as leaks or the need to clean menstrual cups, are more comfortably managed in the privacy away from men, especially in workplaces where women may face sexism or harassment.

Menopause can bring about symptoms that women prefer to manage privately, away from men.

Comfort and Accessibility
Comfort in using toilet facilities also extends to parents with children, the elderly, and those with disabilities. Parents often find it easier to assist their young children in a single-sex toilet that aligns with their gender, especially when helping opposite-sex children. The elderly and people with disabilities benefit from tailored facilities that can be more effectively provided in single-sex setups.

Cultural and Social Considerations
As a multicultural society, Australia supports single-sex toilets through long-standing social norms and values deeply ingrained in many communities. The abrupt removal or reduction of these facilities can cause significant distress and discomfort. A UK poll from 2017 found that 65% of respondents—mostly women—said they would not use a unisex toilet, and men often feel uncomfortable in such facilities because they worry about making women uneasy (McClintock 2015).

A Balanced Approach
While the conversation about toilet facilities must also include the rights and needs of transgender and non-binary individuals, finding a balance that respects and accommodates everyone's comfort is crucial. Solutions such as providing gender-neutral toilets alongside single-sex ones could be a way to address the diverse needs of all individuals in a respectful and inclusive manner. As long as the ratio reflects the population size.

In conclusion, the importance of single-sex toilets extends beyond mere convenience. They encompass crucial aspects of safety, privacy, and comfort that are vital for us all in our daily lives. As society continues to discuss and navigate this issue, it is important to consider all perspectives and strive for solutions that maximize comfort and safety for everyone.

Preface of summary of the last day of Tickle Vs Giggle
Before presenting the detailed summary, which requires cross-referencing tweets and consulting notes to ensure accuracy, I will first provide essential background and key concepts highlighted in the tweets:

1. The key points of the Sex Discrimination Act 1984
The Act protects people from unfair treatment on the basis of their sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, intersex status, marital or relationship status, pregnancy and breastfeeding. It also protects workers with family responsibilities and makes sexual harassment against the law.

2. See Act:

3. Objects (of the Act)
The objects of this Act are:

(a) to give effect to certain provisions of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women and to provisions of other relevant international instruments; and

(b) to eliminate, so far as is possible, discrimination against persons on the ground of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, intersex status, marital or relationship status, pregnancy or potential pregnancy or breastfeeding in the areas of work, accommodation, education, the provision of goods, facilities and services, the disposal of land, the activities of clubs and the administration of Commonwealth laws and programs; and

(ba) to eliminate, so far as possible, discrimination on the ground of family responsibilities in the area of work; and

(c) to eliminate, so far as is possible, discrimination involving sexual harassment, and discrimination involving harassment on the ground of sex, in the workplace, in educational institutions and in other areas of public activity; and

(d) to promote recognition and acceptance within the community of the principle of the equality of men and women; and

(e) to achieve, so far as practicable, equality of opportunity between men and women.

4. The key sections referred to on the day:

5 Sex discrimination
5A Discrimination on the ground of sexual orientation
5B Discrimination on the ground of gender identity
5C Discrimination on the ground of intersex status

7 Discrimination on the ground of pregnancy or potential pregnancy
7AA Discrimination on the ground of breastfeeding
7A Discrimination on the ground of family responsibilities
7B Indirect discrimination: reasonableness test
7C Burden of proof
7D Special measures intended to achieve equality

9 Application of Act

5. The Giggle App


6. About this App:
"Made for Women by Women. Connect on Giggle about the latest Issues, politics, gossip, news and more. Promote your business and or yourself, find accomodation and roommates, connect privately to discuss your most intimate thoughts - all with mutual consent - and without unwanted interruptions and misogynistic abuse."

7. Image of Giggle App interface:


8. Terms & Definitions in the Act

sexual orientation means a person’s sexual orientation towards:

(a) persons of the same sex; or
(b) persons of a different sex; or
(c) persons of the same sex and persons of a different sex.

gender identity means the gender‑related identity, appearance or mannerisms or other gender‑related characteristics of a person (whether by way of medical intervention or not), with or without regard to the person’s designated sex at birth.

sex - there is no definiton. There is a distinction made between sex, gender identity and sexual orientation i.e. you can be harrassed on the basis of sex or gender identity or sexual orientation. Sex is mentioned 331 times but since 2013 there no longer is a definition or interpretation.

applicant - Tickle
respondant 1 and 2 - Giggle and Sall Grover respectively

9. CEDAW
On 18 December 1979, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly. It entered into force as an international treaty on 3 September 1981 after the twentieth country had ratified it. Australia ratified the convention in 1983. By the tenth anniversary of the Convention in 1989, almost one hundred nations have agreed to be bound by its provisions.


(To be noted, neither gender, gender identity, transgender or intersex is in CEDAW)

(Note, I should have added 'joint book', to the preface, seems to be a collection of papers/acts/cases etc that are compiled that the barristers and judges are referring to continually)

Part 1: Day 3 April 11

On the previous day, a significant question was raised by Justice Bromwich on how far the development or interpretation of a treaty's meaning could go before it becomes problematic, especially when such developments grant more power to the Commonwealth under the external affairs power. (CEDAW is an example of such a treaty).

Zelie Heger responded to the Judge's question by making four points:

1. Heger emphasised that the concept of "external affairs" within the constitution was not fixed at the time of federation. The notion was expected to evolve over time as demonstrated by various cases such as "Tasmanian Trams" and "Victoria in the Commonwealth, the Industrial Relations Act case".

2. The second point made by the Heger is about the legislative discretion when implementing treaties. Legislation must be "reasonably capable of being considered appropriate and adapted to implementing the treaty," which provides the legislature with a margin of discretion.

3. Thirdly, the Heger discussed the authoritative role of the CEDAW Committee, established by the convention, in issuing recommendations and handling individual communications. This, she argues, provides authoritative guidance for interpreting treaty obligations. She cites the example of the use of an Optional Protocol and that the High Court recognises that.

4. Lastly, Heger references the "always speaking" statute from section 9 of the Sex Discrimination Act, explaining that the interpretation of international obligations should be based on their understanding at the time of the relevant conduct, citing the decision in "Owens v Owens" and others.

Part 1 continued…
Next was Georgina Costello, arguing on behalf of the applicant Ms. Tickle,
Costello makes several key points against the respondents, Giggle for Girls Pty Ltd and Sall Grover, centring around allegations of discrimination based on gender identity.

1. Costello argued that the actions of the respondents violated the Sex Discrimination Act (SDA), which seeks to eliminate discrimination based on gender identity. Roxie Tickle, who identifies as a woman, was being denied access to services provided by the respondents due to his gender identity.

2. Costello states that the respondents claim that their actions were "special measures" intended to achieve equality. Costello refutes this, arguing that the discriminatory actions do not qualify as special measures under the legal definition, emphasizing that denying Ms. Tickle access to the app based on his gender identity cannot be justified as a measure to promote substantive equality.
She a number of times reiterated and expanded on why Tickle was a women i.e. due to gender surgery, hormones, birth certificate, s/he identified as one, shopped for women’s clothing, attempts to remove facial hair, using women’s change rooms, presented himself as one socially and in the workplace.

3. Costello argued that the respondents (Giggle & Grover) engaged in both direct and indirect discrimination. Direct discrimination is cited in the refusal to respond to Ms. Tickle's requests for access to the app and the denial of service. Indirect discrimination is suggested through the application of a policy that, while seemingly neutral, disproportionately impacts individuals like Ms. Tickle who identify as women. Costello discusses how the app's policy of excluding "men" inadvertently impacts men who identify as women, failing to distinguish between cisgender men and transgender women.

4. The evidence she brought forth included:

· Testimonies and email exchanges showing that Ms. Tickle's requests for access were repeatedly ignored.
· Statements from Sall Grover in various interviews and online communications indicating she didn’t believe men could change sex. Including Grover’s answers given at the cross examination, that all actions Tickle took did not make him a woman. Which Costello asserted that they do.

· Financial and operational details about Giggle for Girls Pty Ltd (first respondent) to establish that it is a trading corporation, thus falling under certain jurisdictional criteria of the Sex Discrimination Act. (i.e. bank balances etc.)

5. Costello provided legal precedents and sections of the Sex Discrimination Act to argue the validity of claims she made against Giggle & Grover.

Overall, Ms. Costello's argument focused on demonstrating that the respondents' actions are legally indefensible under the provisions of the Sex Discrimination Act, as they constituted both direct and indirect discrimination against Ms. Tickle based on her/his gender identity. What she presented as evidence was aimed to show a pattern of discriminatory behaviour and a failure of the respondents to apply their policies in a manner consistent with the legal protections against gender identity discrimination.

(At this point, I offer a personal comment as in summarising this, I feel I am giving a false impression that there was a clear structure in her arguments. I did not find it so, there was a lot of repetition, righteous and indignant tone, that I found laboured her point. There was however a number of interruptions from Justice Bromwich, as he had several issues or points of clarification during Ms. Costello's argument and the assumptions, she made from the evidence she presented, that was helpful. Stephanie I felt captured more of this in her tweeting: )

*Justice Bromwich sought greater clarity on what specific acts constituted discrimination under section 22 via section 5B of the Sex Discrimination Act. He questioned whether the mere act of not responding to Ms. Tickle’s requests or the combination of not responding and not reinstating her to the app were the key discriminatory actions.

*There was a discussion about the distinction between sending and receiving communications, particularly in-app messages. Bromwich emphasized the need for clear evidence that the communications were not only sent but also received, as this is crucial to establishing that discrimination occurred in the manner alleged.

*Bromwich questioned how Costello characterised the discrimination (direct vs. indirect) and how these claims were supported by evidence. He pointed out potential confusion in the pleadings between direct and indirect discrimination and sought clarification on which was the primary claim and which was an alternative.

*There was a concern about whether the discrimination was pleaded in the alternative (direct and indirect) properly, as required by law. Justice Bromwich noted that the pleadings might not have clearly differentiated between these types of discrimination and mixed the language of direct and indirect discrimination.

*Justice Bromwich was interested in the argument about the respondents' claim that their actions were "special measures" intended to achieve equality. He needed persuading that actions taken to achieve equality in one area (sex) could be an acceptable defence for alleged discrimination in another area (gender identity), especially under sections 7D and 7B of the Sex Discrimination Act.

*Finally, Justice Bromwich pointed out that even if there was a policy to remove men from the app, it needed to be clear whether this policy was applied in a way that unfairly included transgender women, which would constitute indirect discrimination due to failure to distinguish between cisgender men and men who identified as women.

I felt throughout the discussion, Bromwich consistently pushed for more precise definitions and justifications of how the evidence supported the legal claims being made.

1/ 🧵 In light of the recent "Women Will Speak" event, what's amiss is the controversy surrounding the unintended involvement of an individual with Nazi affiliations. After the event the major issue is a lack of an apology from the organizers. An apology is not just necessary but vital. #WomenWillSpeak
2/ I acknowledge the challenging circumstances under which you run an event. They're facing loud counter-protesters, they made a snap decision to use a powerful speaker offered by someone, unaware of his dangerous ideologies. (I'll ignore the fact that it is the job of organisers to plan for that contigency, given the posters put up inviting the noise makers) #EventSafety
3/ While the intention to amplify women's voices was in absolutely in good faith, the oversight in vetting this individual's background led to a significant misstep. There were HUGE red flags - his black attire, the website link, the fact his group had the Nazis IN their protest space last year, a google of his name has him running events for Thomas Sowell, leader of the Nazis last year. #DueDiligence

In January we sent a letter through to QLD's Childrens Gender Service to remove WPATH & AusPATH guidelines which are based on WPATH. Be clear they use BOTH, SOC8 and AusPATH 1.4

Then early March we forwarded a letter on the WPATH Files - see here:

You would think that a massive medical scandal would get @qldhealth 's attention? They would pause?

Despite the files reporting:

“... members are fully aware that children and adolescents cannot comprehend the lifelong consequences of ‘gender-affirming care’ …”

“In the WPATH Files, members demonstrate a lack of consideration for long-term patient outcomes despite being aware of the debilitating and potentially fatal side effects of cross-sex hormones and other treatments.”

Nope - "The external service evaluation is led by Associate Professor John Allan, Executive Director of Clinical Excellence Queensland’s Mental Health Alcohol and Other Drugs Branch, and will examine the QCGS’s current model of service delivery against the Australian Standards of Care and Treatment Guidelines for trans and gender diverse children and adolescents (Version 1.4). The evaluation will also consider international practice relevant to Queensland services."

QLD Gender Clinic are going after Dr Jillian Spencer, ONE of the things they complained about was a polite inquiry of whether it was usual for the gender clinic to prescribe cross-sex hormones to 14-year-olds, because post-pubertal boys are likely to be infertile after one year of oestrogen. 🤯

So this is our third letter, I'm not so polite, it is up to MPs and Senators to call QLD's health into line - and quit their engagement in the biggest medical scandal of our time

#FridayFAQ #StealthGenderTransition #Schools

Do schools in Victoria State, Australia need to inform parents when they affirm a child's transgender identity?

NO! In Victoria, parental consent, knowledge or involvement can be ignored if the Principal believes the parents will not consent to their child’s new ‘gender identity’ and the schools therefore can determine that the children may be “mature minors” for the purposes of transitioning with the support of controversial gender clinics like the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne who perform the medical and surgical transitioning.

i.e., “If a student is considered a mature minor, they can make decisions for themselves without parental consent and should be affirmed in their gender identity at school without a family representative/carer participating in formulating the school management plan.” ()

Is there an minimal age restriction?
No.

Where is the harm? Of a school gender or social transitioning the child? Parents do you know?

Physical and Medical Risks and Harms

"What is becoming very clear is that the real “harm” being done to these students is medical transition, which almost always is preceded by social transitioning.

Binding
Negative health effects from chest binding that may not show for years[ii].

97.2% of respondents reported at least one negative outcome from binding.  The most common symptoms were: 1. back pain (53.8%), 2. overheating (53.3%), 3. chest pain (48.8%), 4. shortness of breath ((46.6%), 5. itching (44.9%), 6. bad posture (40.3%), 7. shoulder pain (38.9)

Additional symptoms include; rib fractures, rib or spine changes, shoulder joint “popping”, muscle, wasting, numbness, headache, fatigue, weakness, light-headedness/dizziness, cough, respiratory infections, heartburn, abdominal pain, digestive issues, breast changes, breast tenderness, scarring, swelling, acne, skin changes, skin infections.

Tucking
There are case studies of both infertility and testicular torsion[iv] occurring from tucking.

Itching, rash, testicular pain, penile pain, and skin infections.

Puberty Blockers

Short term: headaches, hot flushes, weight gain, tiredness, low mood and anxiety, reduction in bone density, bone fractures, blurred vision, vision loss.

The Karolinska Institute (Sweden) has also reported liver damage, unexplained weight gains, mental health problems, spinal fractures, osteopenia, and failure to grow.

Increase in behavioural and emotional problems in girls, including an increase in wanting to “deliberately try to hurt or kill self.”

Loss of fertility/sterilisation as gametes won’t develop.

Loss of sexual function and capacity to orgasm: young people given GrNHa at tanner Stage 2 who go onto cross-sex hormones will remain ‘orgasmically naïve’ which may impact their ability to enjoy intimate relationships.

Level of puberty resumption after GnRHa use is stopped: unknown.

Effects on brain development: unknown. Concerns raised about negative impact on IQ, long-term spatial awareness, reaction time and missing out on a window for critical cognitive development.

Impact on the growth of all major organs; heart, lungs etc.

June 2022 the FDA received 60,400 reports of adverse reactions to common GnRH agonists, (puberty blockers), including over 7,900 deaths. "
