Original thread posted here (http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/showthread.php?159982-Getting-a-passport-made-easier-for-sex-and-gender-diverse-people-in-Australia) - this is really exciting news for Aussie transfolk! :D

Yep, good to hear. Congratulations to all Aussies on the board.

And in more good news for West Australian transfolk in particular - the high court ruling in the case that involves two guys I know was handed down today - the high court judges unanimously ruled that they are legally men and should have their GRCs reinstated, and that we should be able to get our gender recognised without having to undergo invasive, expensive and sometimes unattainable surgery :D I haven't looked to see if someone has already posted about this in the media thread yet, but if they have I'll link to it :D

GREAT. Cheers me up to see advances like these being made. Well done. A lot of people must have been fighting hard and long for this outcome.
