Former breastfeeding counsellor Jasmine Sussex faces a court challenge for stating men cannot breastfeed. She vows to defend biological reality and child safeguarding in a landmark case.

This is disturbing in the extreme.

A male named Jennifer Adrian Buckley has made a vilification complaint against former Australian Breastfeeding Association counsellor Jasmine Sussex because she stated the fact that men cannot breastfeed, and a chemical cocktail that mimics breastmilk is not breastmilk.

Jasmine is 100 per cent correct. Men cannot breastfeed. It is pure insanity that a court is even willing to hear this case. But Jasmine won’t be bullied, and will throw everything into defending reality and child safeguarding in court next May.

Is It Even Breast Milk?

Ms Sussex has sought to turn the tables on Ms Buckley, 44, by demanding she prove that the substance she expressed was breast milk, consistent with what a mother would produce and nutritious for the infant, now aged 6.

She won’t be cowed by Ms Buckley’s charge that she breached anti-discrimination law, setting in motion five years of lawyers’ letters, abortive conciliation and ­mediation talks and angst, with the cacophony of clashing claims to be tested in the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal next year

Ms Sussex says she won’t be ­silenced, come what may. The case will hinge on her passionately held belief that she was entitled to call out the “delusional queer theory take” on breastfeeding in ­direct and unequivocal language.

Her lawyer, John Steenhof of the Christian-aligned Human Rights Law Alliance, told The Australian: “It’s not going to be a case that’s going to come to a ­definitive position on what is right and wrong in those particular issues, but whether we’re allowed to speak about them.

“It’s important for a good, ­robust, open political debate that people are able to speak without fear of the law being used to ­silence their opinion.”

Ultimate Gaslighting

The Queensland male who wishes he were a woman is adamant that other trans-identified males should have the right to chemical-induced lactating to satisfy their own desires as well. The Australian falsely refers to Buckley as “she”.

She went on to laud the “amazing experience” of breastfeeding. “Sharing our story is about letting transgender women know that they can breastfeed, they are able to induce lactation and that it should be normalised,” Mr Buckley wrote.

Jasmine has been gaslit and lost her position as a breastfeeding expert because she unapologetically defends reality and promotes child safeguarding.

“I don’t have a choice in this,” she said. “You know, mothers and babies are too important to be ­sacrificed to the selfish, performative, futile effort for a man to be a mother. It’s offensive to women. It’s wrong psychologically, biologically, medically and it’s also unethical in my view. I won’t pretend that it’s OK.”

The woman herself is emphatic: “The arrogance of synthetic sex-change doctors claiming an ability to medically trick the male body into producing mother’s milk is frankly offensive,” Ms Sussex said.

“The awe-inspiring creation of mammalian milk powered by pregnancy, birth, lactation and placental hormones cannot be replicated in a barren male body.”

“No legitimate scientist will ever get ethics clearance to conduct unnecessary, human milk experiments on newborn babies just to gratify the egos of men with reality-denying identity disorders,” she said.

Well said, Jasmine. We stand with you all the way.
