The (an?) Australian Federal Court (although apparently this only has jurisdiction in the province of Victoria, appropriately enough) has ruled that in vitro fertilization (IVF) can be restricted from “lifestyle” lesbians (i.e., where there is presumed to be some choice about it), but not from “psychologically infertile” lesbians (who, for psychological reasons, cannot “do it” with a male). Goofiness ensues in the provincial government about what this means, what laws should therefore be passed, how to test for it, and whether it’s a good thing or not.
Meanwhile, charges have been dropped against a woman who violated laws against this already on the book.
