An Australian judge ruled in a controversial case recently. A lesbian organisation can exclude transgender and bisexual women from events. The judge called this possible 'positive discrimination'.

The case questions whether organisations can exclude certain groups. The lesbian organisation said they serve only women. These women are exclusively attracted to women. The judge saw no problem with this. This raises questions about inclusion and discrimination.

The ruling causes controversy in Australia. Many activists say this is discrimination. Others say organisations decide who is welcome. The right to form community opposes the right of not being excluded.

This ruling will probably be used in similar cases. It shows how difficult balancing equal rights is. The discussion about belonging in spaces continues.
