Lyn welcomes back Terraine Lebeau to discuss the controversial impact of 'woke' culture on women's and children's health and safety. They delve into the definition of "woke" exploring its implications in various societal contexts, particularly in women's sports, prisons and private spaces.

The conversation highlights concerns about fairness in women's sports, the complexities of gender identity, and the potential dangers of allowing individuals (including children) to self-identify. Lyn and Terraine also address the challenges faced by women in private spaces and the need for common-sense solutions to protect everyone, especially the most vulnerable members of society. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Woke culture is described as an awareness of social issues, but has an extremist element regarding gender that has evolved to align with ideologies that some believe are dangerous and counterproductive to societal progress, particularly concerning women's and children's health and safety.
• The discussion highlights concerns about biological men identifying as women and competing in women's sports, which can create an unfair advantage and impact safety and opportunities for female athletes.
• There are significant worries about the invasion of women's private spaces, such as locker/ changing rooms, showers, toilets, bathrooms etc, by individuals who identify as women but are biologically men, raising issues of safety and comfort for women and girls.
• Youth and Gender Identity: The conversation emphasises the risks of allowing minors to make life-altering decisions regarding gender transition, advocating for a more cautious approach that allows individuals to reach adulthood and mental maturity before being allowed to make such choices.
• Need for Common-Sense Solutions: A proposed solution to balance inclusivity and safety is the creation of separate spaces for individuals who identify as transgender, ensuring that everyone has access to facilities while protecting the rights and safety of women and children.

BEST MOMENTS

"Woke to me just means that what is something that we want to push to the mainstream and have them made aware of it. But unfortunately, it seems these days it seems to be aligned with certain ideologies that are counterproductive to the progression of society."

"You wouldn't get able-bodied people able to compete in the Paralympics, for example, because it wouldn't meet that criteria... it's not a fair playing field, is it?"

 "If you're going to allow this type of behaviour, then you want to regulate it better. You don't want someone to kind of quote unquote, make a joke of it like he did."

"It's not only about the unfairness in sports, but also women having their private spaces invaded, such as the locker rooms & toilet facilities."

"When you put someone in a situation to make a life-altering decision, and they make it, and then they regret it afterwards, what do you do with those people?"
