"It was a different time". Well done Women’s Rights Network- Greater Manchester's Cath Dyson 👏 for asking the question of former Australian PM Julia Gillard. Not a hint of regret from Gillard in her answer, but a clear admission that she didn't foresee any of the consequences of her...

Thank you to Sex Matters for asking Julia Gillard if sex matters. See, it’s Gillard’s amendments to the Sex Discrimination Act that removed the definition of “woman” & added “gender identity”, muddling the whole thing & allowing men who claim to be women to interpret the act to their advantage. The amendments took effect in 2013 but it’s not like the act has been working for the past 11 years. With the help of the Australian Human Rights Commission, many people & businesses have been intimidated into accepting men as women. I say “intimidated” because it is intimidating to receive an Australian Human Rights Commission complaint on the basis of alleged “gender identity discrimination” (under the Sex Discrimination Act… yes, none of it makes any sense) and have to either do everything the AHRC says or fight a lengthy & expensive Federal Court battle. The AHRC wanted me to pay the man who made the complaint against me $20,000, attend “sex & gender education”, allow him onto a female only platform & allow all men who claim to be women onto a female only platform. I said no. Not just because I want the platform to remain female only but because I am a woman & I reserve the right to say NO to men when they trespass my boundaries. So I said NO to the AHRC. What resulted has been an almost 3 year long battle. It started when I was 15 weeks pregnant. My daughter will be turning 3 when the appeal to the first Federal Court decision is heard in appeal to the Full Federal Court (3 judges). She will be 4 years old if/when it goes to the High Court. But I want her to grow up in a country where she has rights, including the right to say NO to a man in a dress. What mother would ever stop fighting for her daughter? In the Tickle v Giggle decision, the judge said that “indirect discrimination” occurred “on the basis of gender identity”. It didn’t. He was blocked from the app on the basis of sex - and his sex is male. A simple DNA test would prove that. My eyes clearly saw it. The judge, with the help of the AHRC’s absurd interpretation of the law & reality, said that “sex is changeable”. It isn’t. Sex is immutable. However, Gillard’s amendments along with state-based changes to birth certificate legislation that allows men to edit their BC to the opposite of their biological sex has created the concept of “legal sex”. Legal sex is gender identity aka gender ideology. It obliterates women’s rights to say NO to men if that man declares himself to be a woman. And that leads to verdicts of “indirect discrimination on the basis of gender identity”, despite not knowing or caring that he has a gender identity. Sex matters. This law has to change, and it will, in part because of Giggle v Tickle & everyone who supports the case, but also because of the hard work of every woman who is speaking up and saying NO to this absurd situation. We’re saying what Julia Gillard should have said in 2013. While she (evidently) can’t answer the question, I know that sex matters to Julia Gillard. I know this because she basked in being Australia’s first woman Prime Minister and has dined out on the fact for almost 10 years. Without the reality of sex, her achievement becomes obsolete. With what she did with her achievement, her legacy has become devastating. I have a lot of respect for people who admit they got something wrong. It happens. We’re all only human (and humans don’t change sex). I hope Julia Gillard takes the opportunity to admit it some time. In the meantime, women around Australia (and the world) will continue to do the work to ensure that we can say NO to men who claim to be women. Sex matters. Gender identity does not.

"No woman or maiden shall be forced to marry a man whom she dislikes." That's not a modern law. That was written in England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 over a thousand years ago. Anglo-Saxon women had more legal rights than your great-grandmother. On the same island. A thousand years earlier. 🔑 She could own land. In her own name. Buy it. Sell it. Leave it to whoever she chose. No permission needed. Not from her husband. Not from her father. Not from anyone. She could run a business. She could stand in an open-air court, raise her hand in oath, and the law would hear her the same as any man. ⚖️ On the morning after her wedding, her husband owed her a gift. Land. Money. Property. It was called the Morgengifu, the morning gift. It wasn't symbolic. It was legally binding. And it was hers. Not jointly owned. Not held in trust. Hers. Through everything. 💍 A woman called Wynflaed owned seven estates across four counties, her will still survives. Cynethryth, wife of King Offa, struck coins bearing her own name and face. The only Anglo-Saxon queen known to have done it. The coins are still in museum collections. 🪙 Æthelflæd, Lady of the Mercians, built ten fortified towns and led armies in battle. In the tenth century. ⚔️ While most of Europe treated women as property, this island wrote their rights into law. 🇬🇧 Then the Normans came. 1066. And they took all of it away. Every. Single. Right. 🚫 A married woman's property became her husband's. She couldn't own land. Couldn't sign a contract. Couldn't keep her own wages. Under the doctrine of coverture, her legal identity was absorbed into his. Bracton wrote it plainly: "husband and wife are one person, being one flesh and one blood." In the eyes of the law, she didn't exist. For over eight hundred years. Let that satisfy. Eight. Hundred. Years. In 1882, the Married Women's Property Act gave a married woman the right to own property, keep her earnings, and exist as a separate legal person. 📜 But Britain didn't invent those rights in 1882. It restored them. Rights that Anglo-Saxon women had exercised a thousand years before. On the same island, under the same sky, in a language that became the one you're reading now. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 This island forgot once. We won't let it forget again. Happy Mother's Day ❤️ Be Proud Of Us. 🇬🇧

Taiwanese Media discusses about #ZhaoLusi's recent medical emergency TV Host Xu ShengMei: At the very first moment that I heard about Zhao Lusi's news, I didn't dare to believe it since she's still very young. She's only 26 years old and she's considered the youngest amongst all the Liuliang Actresses. She has many works and isn't only well known in the Mainland. I'm quite certain many Taiwanese wouldn't be unfamiliar with her at all since a lot of her dramas have aired on our Taiwan TV. She was filming a Romance Drama (Almost Lover) at that point in time and was almost done wrapping up, until she was suddenly rushed to the hospital. Do you know how rare is it, among Mainland News, for Artistes to be rushed to the hospital and for there to be pictures captured? I was shocked too when I saw it the first time. I was wondering if it was real? Or if it was just over exhaustion. She hadn't rested for 40 days since she celebrated her birthday, until this medical situation happened. They were saying she had no rest at all. But some of you might not know that, in the Mainland, their entertainment industry is quite different from ours. The liuliang actors and actresses have their own filming vans. The filming vans will enter the production site and in the vans, there are beds, sofas and even bathrooms. They'll have to continue filming and will enjoy such benefits. But for one to still not be able to withstand all of these under such great conditions, how pressurising it must have been? She was sent to the hospital and thus we saw these photos, including those that show her not being able to breathe. I heard that, she even had to withstand being intubated with oxygen for a period of time too, and that the drama team didn't release her until she became paralysed. It was only until she could not walk that they sent her to the hospital. So can you see how cruel it is of them? After she was sent to the hospital, everybody was wondering if she would be better after she rested but no, her loss of speech was as a result of the dissociative conversion disorder. We're not psychiatrists so we only could guess that it was as a result of the stress on her and her physical health condition...
