Episode Synopsis

This episode is my response to today's verdict in Tickle vs. Giggle which was not unexpected however still a terrible outcome for women. Based on this verdict women in Australia have been stripped of our right to meet or associate without the presence of men, if men choose to object.The court has ordered Sall Grover (the owner of the Giggle app); a woman to pay $10,000 compensation and $50,000 towards court costs to a man because he was barred from a women only app.This has been made possible by a previous Australian Prime Minister (our first and so far only female Prime Minister) who removed women as a category from the Sex Discrimination Act in 2013!Guitar Intro Music from Pixabay Music by Vlad Krotov from PixabayWebsite: https://fionakane.com.au/Guitar Intro Music from Pixabay Music by Vlad Krotov from Pixabay
