Speak Up For Women

Speak Up for Women New Zealand

With Katrina Biggs & Suzanne Levy

There are lots of times when sex doesn't matter, we encourage freedom of gender expression & want our children to grow up without narrow definitions of what it means to be a woman or a man. But sometimes sex really does matter, & this is where we are focused.   Our group includes teachers, academics, health professionals, care workers, activists, lawyers, retirees, students, mums, aunties, sisters, & daughters.  We are run entirely by volunteers & receive no public funds or funds from external organizations. We are not affiliated with any political party or religious organization. We would love to hear from anyone interested in supporting what we do.

Speak Up for Women is a diverse group of women, but we have a set of core principles that we follow. These principles form the basis of how we represent our causes & who we partner.

Women are adult human females; girls are human female children. Women & girls have the right to live free of violence, including sexual, physical, & emotional. Women & girls have the right to organize & gather in safe, sex-segregated spaces. Women & girls have the right to reproductive sovereignty. Women & girls have the right to live free from commercial sexual exploitation. Women & girls have the right to economic independence, pay equity, & living wages. Lesbians are exclusively same-sex attracted females & have the right to assert their same-sex attraction without facing harassment. ‘Sex’ refers to the biological characteristics that distinguish males from females. Sex is immutable. ‘Gender’ refers to the stereotyped roles, behaviors, & attributes that society at a given time considers appropriate for males & females.
