Lesbians have a 'human right' to exclude trans women, Federal Court hears
www.abc.net.au
A Victorian-based lesbian group is seeking an exemption to the Sex Discrimination Act so it can legally discriminate against transgender women when it holds public events.

This is so stupid. How would they even enforce it? Are they going to check everyone’s chromosomes at each meeting?

Lots of trans women pass, and lots of cis lesbians can look a bit manly, so I can’t imagine any practical way to enforce it. And a rule without enforcement is pointless.

    The reality of the situation is this doesn’t affect anybody who you count as friend or family so you just don’t care. You project what you think is the norm but you don’t know because it’s not your monkey not your circus isn’t it? You don’t care where this leads because nobody you care about will die from it and when the trans people disappear from the world around you you’ll be unaware or worse celebrate.

    I think I know when someone is a lost cause until something changes. Perhaps one day it will be someone you care about and then you’ll have the insights you need. Until then.
