Just a few thoughts:

"Gender is our internal sense of self, whether that be
man, woman, neither or both. Most people have an idea
about their gender at two to three years old - this
may align with the sex assigned to them at birth".

"Unlike gender, race presents as categorised (often
physical) traits that are socially constructed and
understood".

"You can't inherit your gender. This is internal and
something individual to you. But you do inherit the
social construct of race. There is also much more
to one's racial identity than physical appearance -
it's also about culture, community, connection and even
trauma".

"While multicultural communities and LGBTQI experiences
of discrimination are sometimes compared it is
important to understand these experiences are different
and complex".

"This is particularly the case for example in considering
trans people of colour and their experiences of both racism
and transphobia".

"People who face discrimination based on their race or
cultural background can usually go home to members of the
family who understand them. This is often NOT the case for
trans and gender diverse people".

"Race and gender have very different histories, understandings,
experiences and implications in the face of discrimination.
The very idea of being able to transition to a different race
discredits trans and gender diverse people's experience of
gender affirmation. It also undermines the importance of
cultural connections for many communities".

"It is important for us to acknowledge that talking about
"transracial" identities as something that you can be for
or against only further marginalises and harms people of
colour and trans and gender diverse people".

"This marginalisation is compounded for trans people of
colour".

"Instead of the pursuit of followers we need to prioritise
amplifying the experiences of diverse people in ways that
not only focus on discrimination and abuse but also
celebrate people being their authentic selves".

"Every politician loves photo opps"....That's right Foxy, take one look at that sacked Liberal 'Up Skirter' Laming, one of SM's folk heroes. He had a phone full of photo opps, mostly the backsides of young girls, Laming was a very opportunistic photographer.

"Most people have an idea about their gender at two to three years old.."
- Like when you realise you have to either stand up or sit down to pee?

As for my comments on Chinese and African being Australian, I suppose I was being a bit harsh.
I guess one should recognise there's a difference between race and nationality.

My paternal family originally came from Scotland, but were here for many generations before I was born.
I guess growing up I just saw myself as being a 'White Australian' or even simply just 'Australian' and never really saw myself as having a 'European' racial descent.
I didn't learn about my grandmother being part indigenous till many years later, my Dad's mum died in a car accident when he was just 12, and even then he didn't know his mum well, she had left my grandfather and moved back to Sydney when he was much younger.

Considering that Albozo has utterly failed to meet any of his promises and was on a junket around Europe during the floods, he has succeeded in making Morrison look a lot better.

His 3hr fly in visit to Alice Springs was a master example of token caring.

Hi shadowminister,
"His 3hr fly in visit to Alice Springs was a master example of token caring."
Yes, but he's got plenty of time for parties with the Chinese or a gay parade.
Appartently youth crime doesn't rate as being important enough.
Guess wearing his pink tie and all, we know where his priorities lie.
Big on voice, short on action old Airbus Albo, the sandwich crust removing wuss.
