Australian Court Awards $10,000 to Trans Woman in Giggle Case
Aug 23, 2024, 08:44 AM
In a landmark ruling, the Federal Court of Australia found that the women's social networking app, Giggle, and its founder, Sall Grover, indirectly discriminated against Roxanne Tickle, a transgender woman, by denying her access to the platform. The court ordered Giggle to pay $10,000 in damages to Tickle. This decision, which dismissed the claim of direct discrimination, has sparked significant debate as it legally affirms that 'sex is changeable' under Australian law. The verdict has been met with criticism from various quarters, with concerns raised about its implications for women's rights and single-sex spaces. The case centered on gender identity discrimination.
