Oh no! Someone stuck a "woman – adult human female" on Shannon Fentiman's poster.

The Queensland Minister for Women declares she does not “stand” for the definition of woman.

That message:

Someone did this to my office recently.

I know the sticker doesn’t look like it says much, and most people will be lucky enough to be unaffected by what it says.

But for some people in our community, these stickers represent much more – they represent a movement which discriminates against them and denies their existence.

I want to be very clear – I don’t stand for these sort of views, our community doesn’t stand for these views, and Queenslanders don’t stand for these views.

I’m proud to be working with trans and gender diverse Queenslanders to ensure their lived identity matches their legal identity by reforming our birth certificate laws.

I’m proud that we’re modernising anti-discrimination laws to further protect our LGBTQIA+ community.

I’m proud to be Queensland’s Minister for Women, fighting for the rights of all Queensland women.

The work we’re doing will keep going, regardless of any stickers on my office or hateful comments on my social media.

Yep, that's the, um, Queensland Minister for Women.
