Yep I was one of those excited women who emailed Casey Costello congratulating her on common sense, and asking her to check in with the Midwifery Council and Council of Midwives. We don’t want “people with uteri” etc in their language.

Casey Costello when approached in person by me last year proved gerself informed on the (ridiculously) contentious issue of women erasure, human rights for women ( in our 'democracy') PATHA'S paucity of logic snd domination of pathways to ideology rather than health arcs. Glad she has finally chosen her moment to rock the gender ideologues' shaky ARK of the covenant of confusion with all its endangered species ( supposedly vulnerable but really toxic) aboard.... No looking out for doves of peace!

Although the Minister gets the kudos, it's the women like yourself who got her there.

Thanks for this wonderful article - it’s been so heartening to see this change! I am flabbergasted at hearing about pregnant people and chest feeding etc- and very hurt! Can’t these so called public servants see that it’s erasing us out of this world? It’s dangerous and unbelievable!

Great that you highlighted all the beardy bros and opposition. This needs to be recorded and remembered. I don’t know about you but I have a terrible memory so I’m grateful to your reminder of how we have been bullied.

Yes, we're on our way now. It was only a matter of time before the sheer absurdity of trans claims, an top of their sexism, would trip them up and so it is doing. They didn't bank on women having the brains and balls that they lack. Ain't that ironic for those people who think men can be women and women can be men. Great piece.
