A breastfeeding expert is facing action in a Queensland tribunal for objecting to the idea that biological males can breastfeed.
It is the third complaint Victorian Jasmine Sussex has had to deal with.
The first involved an incident with the Australian Breastfeeding Association, after Sussex wrote on Facebook that she did not believe it was suitable for biological men who had transitioned to breastfeed.
Her volunteer role at the Association would end after 15 years.
Sussex says it is because she refused to use terms such as “chest feeding.”
The second incident saw Buckley complain to the eSafety commissioner about an X social media post where Sussex had written the word, “delusional,” in response to an article involving Buckley and breastfeeding.
Eventually, the X post was geo-blocked, and can no longer be seen in Australia.
When Sussex responded on social media about censorship, Buckley complained to the Queensland Human Rights Commission in November, which saw Sussex taken to the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal.
