Sex exists on a scale and the definition of “woman” is not limited to the pages of a dictionary, a court has heard in an appeal hearing to overturn a landmark gender identity discrimination finding made against a women-only social media app.
Giggle for Girls and its CEO, Sall Grover, are challenging Justice Robert Bromwich’s August 2024 federal court judgment that found Roxanne Tickle, a transgender woman, was indirectly discriminated against when she was barred from the platform in September 2021. The case was the first gender identity discrimination case to reach the federal court.
