Finally — an adult in the room. Beverley McArthur, a liberal member of Australia’s parliament, delivered a passionate defense of women’s rights this week. And it was brilliant.

“When I came into this parliament in 2018, the last thing I thought I would have to defend is women’s rights,” she began. “Those hard fought battles for recognition were, I thought, largely won. But we’ve gone backwards.”

McArthur spoke out against transgender-based policies she says are infringing on biological women’s rights in the country.
