Australia’s legal system is now debating whether men who identify as women should receive pregnancy protections and full access to female-only spaces. Yes, really.
The debate follows the now infamous “Tickle v. Giggle” case, where a biological man named Roxanne Tickle sued the women-only networking app Giggle for Girls after being removed from the platform.
Giggle founder Sall Grover argued that women on the app felt uncomfortable because Tickle was obviously male. Grover’s legal team argued that this was a case of a woman being harassed by a man insisting he was a woman. The Australian courts disagreed.
Not only did Grover lose the original lawsuit, but an appeals court has now increased the damages she owes to roughly $100,000. The court ruled that Tickle, “who is a transgender woman,” was treated less favorably than women “designated female at birth.” Under Australia’s Sex Discrimination Act, that qualifies as unlawful discrimination.
Grover says she plans to appeal again to Australia’s High Court and has become something of a folk hero among critics of gender ideology. Her argument is simple: if women are no longer legally allowed to define what a woman is, then women-only spaces cease to exist at all.
In an official statement, she said that if the court thinks that its latest decision will make her accept gender ideology, all she has to say is: “go f c k yourself.”
