Known as “Tickle vs Giggle”, the case is the first time alleged gender identity discrimination has been heard by the federal court in Australia.
I know this is a serious topic, but it’s really hard to remember that with a name like that
Grover is a self-declared ‘TERF’ - an acronym that stands for “trans-exclusionary radical feminist.” TERFs’ views on gender identity are widely considered to be hostile to trans people.
This bit feels like it should have been earlier in the article and gives more clarity on the potential reason Grover rejected Tickles application in the first place.
Damn, whoever wrote that seemed upset. I dunno if it was just me but the article seemed disapproving about the ruling. That said, it was written for the BBC, so it wouldn’t be surprising if they disapproved.
I got the same vibe from reading the article - I feel like there was a time when the BBC wouldn’t have given so much space to the views of a person who actually just lost a court case over them.
Not really surprising from the bbc
