@TurquoiseBaubles

There are only two comments, both heavily downvoted which is rather strange.

I presume any comments agreeing with her are not allowed.

Nine hours and only two comments? Both from the same user? Something fishy there.

I almost think the worst bit is booting out girls who think they are boys. That’s the actually horrible bit- having some gender confusion little 10yo girl? Some people might support you but this is girl guides - fuck off then to penis land we won’t touch your boy identifying issues.

Yes @Helleofabore unfortunately! This is Kooyong, frydenbergs electorate, so no chance my vote is going anywhere it won’t count anyway.

I can see why they weren’t happy with the way she tweeted at rather than contacted the lawyer through a private channel, but it’s still mad.

This goes against every safeguarding rule. I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt in making it mixed sex as an org but if you’re supposed to just blindly pretend that it’s not, including on overnight trips, that’s just unworkable.

They claim to be inclusive of all girls and women regardless of 'gender identity' yet would kick out a girl who identifies as a boy? A girl that most likely would benefit massively from a single sex environment.

Buy yes 'girl' guides now exist to pander to penis and provide validation for male identities.

I withdrew my dd from GG in aus a few years ago because of this policy.

I think we do know time. I think we do know.

Only one commenter so far, and they are a disappointing representative of Aussie daily Mail readers (what a sentence!). I saw greens out campaigning today and thought I wonder what they think a woman is, but I think I know…

Thank you for sharing this. I did not know this had happened.

It will certainly captured people’s attention as it ripples through though.

I know of no friends or family in Australia who would accept a teenaged or adult male sleeping in the tent with their daughter at a GG camp.

Not one.
