"WHO DECIDES? is a feature documentary exploring the growing national conversation in Australia surrounding the participation of transgender women in female-only spaces, alongside broader questions relating to education, healthcare and public policy.

As these issues increasingly move from sporting fields and schools into courtrooms, government inquiries and parliamentary debate, the film looks beyond the headlines to examine how competing rights, public policy and lived experience intersect. Through interviews with people holding a range of perspectives, alongside those directly affected, experts, advocates, journalists, legal professionals and policymakers, WHO DECIDES? seeks to foster a thoughtful exploration of one of Australia's most contested public conversations."

It’s Clark (sorry, Claire) Kent. Obviously we’re not supposed to notice he’s a man. Yet another bloke taking something from a woman…..

I think the 19th.

Some of us fought hard to be software engineers in a very male world. Now men id’ing as women get awards that should have gone to natal women.

I’m retired, so I haven’t missed out personally. But younger women have. And who is now influencing the future of software? Women deserve their fair share of that.

The award for female software engineer of the year yesterday went to a man. https://womenindigital.org/women-in-digital-awards/women-in-digital-awards-2026-winners/

The world has gone crazy, or at least Australia has.

The award for the "rising star of 2026", which is featured right before Claire Kent, also went to another man, Ashley Lamont.

Yup. So 2 awards for women go to men.

Gotcha, I hadn't scrolled down far enough. Canva and Attlassian. Shabby. Wonder if they are members of WIT. Such poor form.
