Australian womens rights activists recieve death threats in the lead up to a Sydney Womens rights rally

[Manyanamanyana]

Sal Grover and Kirralee Smith, both recently fined ($100k and $95k) for misgendering men imposing on womens spaces, have recieved death threats from a range of transactivist organisations. Sal Grover, a single Mum, has pulled out. I don't blame her one bit. It is sickening that women exercising free speech in this country are subject to this bull sh*t. Kirralee has decided to proceed and both are Warriors. Let Women Speak events in Australia require (and tbf, recieve) considerable police presence in order to defend these (usually middle-aged) women from the "be kind" crowd, who have in the past been violent and are always abusive and disruptive. What Government boasts about having sex-parity with the party, and yet sides with Men who behave like this towards women asking for their rights? All of them, actually. In Australia our sex discrimination act was altered beneath the radar to remove the definition of women and men, and elevate gender identity, meaning that a man who identifies as a woman is for all purposes, a woman in law. This is what Sal and Kirralee are fighting for: a repeal of the changes. Our Prime Minister and his tribe of handmaidens call this a culture war. It is in fact a war on womanhood.

Only 2 posts out of the last 85 were thread relevant, so I'm off.
There is hope for Aus, there was a thread recently that showed politicians questioning this stupidity, there was even mention of putting sex back into the Equality legislation. It's going to take time but it's moving in the right direction and women standing up and being counted is helping. So well done to those brave women and more power to them. 💪✊

Was just thinking what an enormous disadvantage it is to women if, every single time a man demands access to women’s sports or spaces, an individual assessment has to be carried out and potentially taken to court.

Women’s competition would be in a permanent state of turmoil because men would have to be allowed to compete until the court case was done, then when he was shown to have advantage (which he would because he’s male) the whole table of positions would have to be reorganized and any prizes or medals redistributed.

That sounds, in itself, like a huge and immediate disadvantage to women, compared with men who would have none of these problems at all.

Networking apps understandably (for anyone with a working brain) aren't considered to meet this standard

The Networking App that Sall created included room and housesharing which anyone with a working brain, as you describe, it can be considered a situation in which women who want to reduce their risk of rape and murder can find other women to share with, what with the risk of rape and murder that is so often threatened by Trans People so clearly evidenced by the murder threats received for daring to create a networking app that would screen them out.

Their murder threats prove her point somewhat, as anyone with a working brain, as you describe it, can see.

Most people in Australia, would not be in favour of GI would they? I mean it takes a while to actually get to grips with some of the implications but surely there would actually be a majority who think it is pretty peculiar, time-wasting and damaging ideology? Isn't it just the need for enough decent coverage in the press and getting people to care about this stuff. I think women's sports and what children are being taught in school are the way to go. The story from Iceland is such a good one to show the dangers clearly. If that could only get into the Australian press.
I want a 'proud terf' hat! is that a real hat or a metaphorical one?

And there it is. Open misogyny. It is FEMALE ENTITLEMENT to want women's sports and prisons etc to exclude men. How fucking DARE we want anything for ourselves. Any privacy, dignity, SAFETY?
Nah, you want these things? Get on your knees and beg. And while you're down there, we'll kick you in the face you bigot!

WE don't live in the real world?? This coming from a man who believes men can become women and its perfectly fine to threaten and harrass women who don't agree?
You couldn't make this shit up.

Oh it's YOU!
How many usernames do you have on MN now? I have counted about 6 I think although I expect you've discarded the teen gay torture porn star one for good. Too obviously a male choice possibly?
I shouldn't bother if I were you. Your creepy mansplaining misogynistic style is always recognisable to us stupid women.

And this is the giveaway. Sports, toilets, prisons, whatever. It's never about women + disadvantaged/vulnerable men of all kinds who might be at risk in the male category and need to be considered on a case by case basis. It's always women + only men who say they are women.
So it's not really about disadvantage at all. It's about giving trans identified men what they want.

It's a real one. I wear it out quite a lot

Interesting findings from IPSOS Pride Report 2026. For Australia:

Q. How much do you agree or disagree with the following? Transgender people should be allowed to use single -sex facilities (e.g., public restrooms) that correspond to the gender they identify with
Agree 43% (down from 53% in 2023) Disagree 43%

Q. To what extent do you support or oppose the following: Transgender athletes competing based on the gender they identify with rather than the sex they were assigned at birth
Support 21% (down from 27% in 2021) Oppose 53%

The whole report is worth a read. Australians are not half as much in favour of gender ideology as some would have us believe.
Terf Island is, of course, doing best of all the countries for women's rights, without sacrificing genuine rights for trans-identified people. 💚💜

A transwoman is a man and has no place on a app set up so women can find other women for friendship, flat sharing, love or jobs. Shame on him. He should hang his head and withdraw his ridiculous complaint. Women have every right to their own stuff. If I want a women only book club I am entitled to have it. And though you speak of protections in sports, prisons, refuges etc it does not seem from what I hear that these protections are working because transwomen playing in women's sports is what Kirralee Smith exposed. Far from committing any crime she exposed the fact that men are playing on women's sports teams in Australia and this is both unfair to women and dangerous.
I've now caught you out an untruth btw - you told me there were protections for women's sports and it looks to me as if that is not true - or not enforced, which is worse.

I think Gretel is a he - a transwoman i.e. a man. Is it legal to say that in Australia?

This 100%.
