About the episode
As queer Australians demand being counted, in true Olympic spirit, Prime Minister Albanese has performed massive backflips over what will be asked in the next Census. Now some LGBTQI+ people will be included in the census — but not all. One Antoinette unpacks why sex and gender identity need to be accurately measured and welcomes the move. The other is not impressed and doesn't think counting changes anything. The Antoinettes also explore why Australia still lags when it comes to measuring the ethnic and racial makeup of the country. ____________________________________________________________________ Please rate and review if you enjoyed this episode!
