Nine women who have been penalised for speaking about women’s sex-based rights are heading to Canberra’s Parliament House to address federal politicians, the media and the public.

The “Why Can’t Women Talk About Sex” event will counter the negative narrative that women campaigning for sex-based rights are “Nazi-sympathisers”, “anti-trans”, “transphobes” or “bigots.” 

Each woman will share her own story directly to decision makers and all Australians.

The same women addressed politicians, the media and the public in July at NSW Parliament House.
