Transgender woman's ban from female-only app discriminatory, court rules
Briefly

Justice Robert Bromwich emphasized that Roxanne Tickle's exclusion from the Giggle for Girls app was unlawful discrimination based on her perceived male appearance at birth.
The court determined that the terms of access to the app unlawfully conditioned entry on having the appearance of a cisgender woman, thereby discriminating against transgender women.
Bromwich noted, 'the effect of this condition was that it would not just exclude men who were male sex at birth, but also transgender women too.'
In his ruling, Justice Bromwich highlighted, 'Tickle was considered female under the law,' notwithstanding the ongoing debate about biological sex.
