Australia Announces Men Can Now BREASTFEED| Redacted With Natali and Clayton Morris
By Redacted
Two women in Australia were told that it is illegal to say that men cannot breastfeed on Twitter. Is it now? Who in the Australian government is asking Twitter to enforce these new laws? Meanwhile, a politician in the U.K., Baroness Falkner, is under investigation for using the term “bloke in lipstick.” Or is she being targeted for insisting on a legal definition of biological sex? Probably the second one.
Here’s what others had to say:
Geoff
I’m a business owner in Australia and I would NEVER hire an individual who used pronouns other than Male or Female.
Joe
As a man living in Australia I’d like to say I honestly can’t breastfeed and I don’t know any other man that can. We can’t. This is a sickness.
Adrian Adrian
I am an Aussie man. Biological facts transcend any pieces of legislation.
Holly P
I’m a woman. I gave birth to eight kids and nursed them all for a year or more each. These people are mentally ill and we’re allowing them to throw us women, who actually do the work, under the bus! I won’t bow to this insanity.
Sammie Kate
As an Australian I have to say this law is the most unaustralian thing ever and it makes me feel so embarrassed to be Australian wtf!!!
Kelly Souter
Australian here. Im completely disgusted and im in Australia and i wish to let it be known that men can not breastfeed because they are not women.
Aral Bereux
I’m an Australia, and ashamed to say so. I’ve also never heard of this so-called law, and I’ll continue to state FACTS when discussing such craziness.
Bill Ruud
So child abuse is not only sanctioned, but also protected by Australian law? Seriously?!
Tricia Zena
Imagine being a doctor in Australia and being forced to think and talk in a manner that doesn’t apply to any of the biological information they’ve been taught.

thank you Natalie and Clayton for covering this. It is utterly disturbing that we in Australia need to access international news in order to find out what is going on in our own country and to find out what laws we are subject to. thank you for your common sense and advocacy for what is in the best interests of the child.
Kathy Rawlings
I used to be a Nurse and I studied Anatomy and Physiology. Biology. Maternity nursing. Many other courses. No men cannot breastfeed babies. That has nothing to do w transphobia. How utterly ridiculous.
Tina Smith
Does anyone else find it strange that this suddenly became an issue in multiple western countries at the same time? Whose idea was it that all of a sudden biology doesn’t exist?
