Federal Court Awards $10,000 in Giggle Case, Rules 'Sex is Changeable'
Aug 23, 2024, 12:48 AM
In a landmark decision, the Federal Court of Australia ruled in favor of Roxanne Tickle, a transgender woman, in a gender identity discrimination case against the women-only social media app Giggle and its founder Sall Grover. The court found that Tickle was indirectly discriminated against when she was excluded from the platform and ordered Giggle to pay $10,000 in damages. The direct discrimination claim failed. The case has sparked significant debate over gender identity and the definition of sex in Australian law, with the court stating that 'sex is changeable.' The ruling has been met with criticism from those advocating for women's rights, who argue that it undermines the ability to maintain women-only spaces.
