Mothers are not "birthing persons".
Women Only spaces for real women.
Women defined by their biology.
Lesbians have the right to free associate with other Lesbians and to exclude transwomen.

Previously had been a supporter, hosting signs and handing out how to vote cards, but now refuse. A malignant misogyny needs excised from the once most effective of Greens Parties. Oppression of women is intrinsically linked to the destruction of our environment. This makes women's voices vital to solutions to climate change.

We can be inclusive without taking away women born rights and safety. Many women get murdered by men every years. Let women's safe spaces alone.

I’d love to see the Greens stop their hatred of women. I’d love to not be as I am now politically homeless. I was an active Greens campaigner for 3 decades. I know so many other women like me.

Greens often use personal attacks on others for their own gain. Womens rights are not the only example

There are all sorts of consequences from removing sex from law/policy and replacing it with ‘gender identity. Women prisoners find themselves housed with rapists. Lesbians like myself find that we are not allowed to hold public events for lesbians, or use meaningful language to describe ourselves. But instead of thinking these things through, people have been silenced, slandered and even ejected from the party. A party that’s happy to subject women prisoners to the terror of being housed with a rapist has abandoned compassion, fairness, decency and common sense.

Democracy demands that all voices are listened to and opinions considered. Complex issues such as this demand thorough discussion.

While I totally support the choice of individuals to nominate their gender, I also believe that this should not be conflated or confused with their biological sex. The epic suffering among the 50% of the world's population born as biological females, at the hands of those born as biological males continues at a global scale. It needs to be robustly named and countered, just as the gender-related suffering of the relatively much fewer people who choose a gender different to their biological sex, should be robustly named and countered. While descriptive pronouns and adjectives used to label a person's gender and biological sex can be used for vilification and while that vilification needs to be stopped, those words are still vitally important in supporting those who are experiencing sex or gender-related violence and preventing it. To totally disallow the use of established pronouns or adjectives that, of themselves, are not harmful, seems a nonsense. Can't we simply learn to use our language more respectfully?

Unless you change your policies regarding women and stop the gender identity demands I won't vote Green.

Sex and sexuality reality must be protected from flawed gender ideology.

Greens, you have a misogyny problem. Betray women and you'll see your voter base keep disappearing, and then where will we be?

This is one of those 'thin edge of the wedge' issues. I hope the Greens listen up.

Many women campaigned did you in the recent election, including myself, but you must listen to us with an open minded, enquiring approach! Get with the program or women will be leaving the Greens in droves! We want to support the environment and it is devastating not to be able to do so due to far woke political activism having infiltrated and brainwashed The Green Party!
