Which of the SUFW policies do you disagree with? Not having rapists in female prisons? Lesbians rights to meet without men? Women's rights to freedom of association?

Oh no! Not THAT Suzanne Levy, SHE'S the worst. SHE believes lesbians get to define their own non-male sexuality, that old women who need intimate care have the right to choose female carers, that rapists shouldn't be in female prisons and that women have the right to self-organise. THE HORROR.

Unless you're bi or what some might say poly, all sexualities are by definition exclusive. Framing it as mean lesbians who exclude people and are anti another group simply for being honest about their sexuality is another way to shame gays and particularly lesbians. New decade same old shit.

Here's Equality Australia celebrating the stripping of lesbian and women's freedom of association. Party on. equalityaustralia.org.au/equality-aus...
Equality Australia welcomes decision to deny exemption to exclude trans women from lesbian event
LGBTIQ+ groups have welcomed a decision by the Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) to reject an application by a lesbian group to hold a social event at the Victorian Pride Centre that excludes ...

I mean ACTUAL legislated banning of women meeting in public by themselves. You're perfectly entitled to decide that's fine and LAVA are making a horrid fuss, but you won't convince me.
September 5, 2025 at 7:35 AM
Look there are so many examples and you can ignore them all you like but I agree with LAVA that it is problematic that lesbians are shamed for exclusive same-sex attraction and that women including lesbians are being denied freedom of association as well as freedom of speech.

Lesbians are being kicked off dating apps for saying they only want to date females. All power to other people to do what they want but it's true that for females with exclusive same-sex attraction are losing their spaces and their rights. That's wrong. Some good links in here. tinyurl.com/4e4p4m5r

At Allison Bailey’s employment tribunal, breaking the ‘cotton ceiling’ was equated to racial integration, an idea that is as wrong as it is dangerous

if only but that's simply not true. The CEO of Stonewall's largest queer charity said lesbians were sexual racists if they were not attracted to trans people. Lesbians who want to meet in women-only groups have been entirely banned in Australia.

Great. So tell me what the problem is with LAVA's homepage. Which of these things very genuine concerns is problematic?
September 5, 2025 at 6:52 AM
But you said some people think lesbian rights must strip away other rights. Again, which people & which rights? Some female people who id as lesbian may be comfortable with considering male born people part of their sexuality, but some lesbians aren't. Shaming their sex-based sexuality is homophobic

I guess it depends on your priorities right? Your priority might be the rights of people with penises who identify as female to enter spaces where some females do not want them. I guess LAVA's priority would be the rights of actual females to choice and autonomy.

What people and what rights are being stripped away?

Never heard of her
September 4, 2025 at 10:47 AM
So which of these pro-women and pro-lesbian principles do you disagree with? And what kind of movement are you aligned with if it doesn't like lesbian rights? Could it be a homophobic one?
September 4, 2025 at 7:57 AM
Here's LAVA's homepage. They are concerned, moderate and heartfelt. If you go to support Pride you are denying women's freedom of association, our right to say no to men, our right to define our own sexuality and you are like Pride now does, supporting homophobia. #WellingtonShame
