"Under the banner of “human rights”, high-profile and heavily resourced stakeholders are advancing the interests of a sexual rights industry that profits from the [sex-based] exploitation of women while erasing women as a political and legal category."

What has happened at the Australian Psychological Society keeps their patients in the dark, exploiting their professional power of them, but for who's benefit? Not their members'. #psychologist

Hundreds of women have experienced abuse at the hands of this medical student.
Caught three times and he still has no conviction. Yet this type of crime is a precursor to far more serious offending such as experienced by Giselle Pelicot

We will remember Renee Nicole Good. May she rest in peace.
This is male violence with presidential imprimatur. This is not Afghanistan, this is not Iran, this is the so-called leading country of the so-called free world.

Women were there, right at the beginning of the UN shaping of human rights. How many of their names do we remember now? www.un.org/sites/un2.un...
World tennis Number 1 Aryna Sabalenka has weighed into the debate over trans-identified males in women’s sport. Good for her! www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/d...
Today is Human Rights Day. Last year, the Oz government buried the report of its own human rights inquiry. johnmenadue.com/post/2025/12...
The report, and our submission, had recommended a Federal Human Rights Act af4wr.org/wp-content/u.... So we still have no protection of our sex-based rights.
Another win for women in the UK. When will the Australian political class and judiciary wake up?
This Wednesday 10 December is international Human Rights Day. See this statement by UN Women.

(Unfortunately, this laudable statement is undermined by UN Women’s position that males with a gender identity are women.)
The 2025 US HHS Report found serious conflicts of interest driving medical bodies to suppress the 2024 UK Cass Report. It is not harmful to discuss it!! #NHMRC
We have reached a point where identifying the sex of a person can lead to multiple legal cases and potential financial ruin.
This is why more women don't speak up.
We stand with Kirralie and every woman punished for speaking the truth.

Using hate crime law instead of discrimination law to protect people identifying as trans: "As far as I'm concerned you are giving people already misusing the criminal justice process which appears not to have insulated itself against this misuse giving that group of people an additional weapon."
From The Australian this weekend. The video accompanying the article is particularly worth a watch.

‘The world’ is also here. Supposedly peaceful countries like Australia are responsible for exporting weapons to belligerents in wars and those who arm them. This recent report shows the Australian arms export trade is particularly opaque. www.quakersaustralia.org.au/wp-content/u...
News from the UK. A teeny step in the right direction? or a move that will end up reinforcing the idea that some pornography is ‘acceptable’? (if it isn’t snuff or gonzo, if it doesn’t have choking….). In any case it’s a step better than Oz! www.theguardian.com/society/2025...
‘[Displays span]…the beautiful, the menacing and the extremely cool.’ Richard Marles, speaking at the Indo Pacific International Maritime Exposition in Sydney, 4 November.
Yet, Australia’s growing arms industry lacks transparency.

Sure, Richard. Really cool.
« A crisis of apathy ». This is how one senior UN official characterises the world’s attitude to the war in Sudan.

Women and children have as always been particular targets, as last week’s attack by the Rapid Support Forces on el-Fasher maternity hospital shows.
Congratulations @labwomendec.bsky.social on your amazing stall and fringe event at the recent UK Labour Party Conference. We in Australia on the left look up to you that you can do this!
AF4WR have written to the Qld Minister for Health, Tim Nicholls, re Jillian Spencer’s case. Spencer was suspended then sacked from her job as child psychiatrist at Qld Children’s Hospital after raising objections to the so-called ‘gender affirmation’ model used in treatment of minors.
www.theguardian.com/commentisfre.... In the social media brouhaha about Charlie Kirk, the Epstein files have been all but forgotten. But if we are to grieve for anyone this week, let us grieve for the hundreds of women and girls who were trafficked and abused by Epstein.
Minister for Women: Who are your real stakeholders?
Minister Katy Gallagher, are you aware you appear to be captured by forces opposed to feminism who are destroying women's rights?
See letter to the Minister at bottom of this linked post.

We have many questions. How was this allowed to happen?
Where is the condemnation of these neo nazis by our political leaders who previously defamed us women at the Let Women Speak rally in 2023 by confusing us for the neo nazis?
Thank you for your national leadership Senator Malarndirri McCarthy.
Our political representatives and activist groups continue to use the scare tactic of heightened suicide risk among transgender-identified youth. But here's the thing. *The risk is not borne out by the evidence*.
See for example: segm.org/Suicide-Gend...
