What a gift to predatory men! Where else can they be men when they are feeling all manly, but women when they want a bit of action?! And I agree that many groups are "inclusive" not because it's appropriate, but because they falsely believe they have no other choice.

Hopefully, we can spread the word enough to let them know they have choices, as per clause 79(2)b. A court case would be so interesting!

This is too dystopian for me. I could understand doing away with passports, and open borders etc. but this is deliberate intimidation of women and our space.

It's an atrocious abrogation of women's rights, for sure. I encourage NZers to get familiar with clause 79(2)b, and quote and invoke it as much as possible.

Considering past awful actions by TRAS, the fear is reasonable. If NZers get as familiar as possible with clause 79(2)b, and quote and invoke it wherever they can, we may be able to mitigate the worst aspects of sex self-ID for women.

Oh, yes - gender ideology in general is horrendously harmful.
