"[Statement in court ] I wanted to create a safe, women-only space in the palm of your hand. [...] It is a legal fiction that Tickle is a woman. His birth certificate has been altered from male to female, but he is a biological man, and always will be. We are taking a stand for the safety of all women’s only spaces, but also for basic reality and truth, which the law should reflect."

At the Federal Court of Australia on 23 August 2024 in Tickle v Giggle, Justice Robert Bromwich ruled that a transgender woman, Roxanne Tickle, had faced "indirect gender identity discrimination" under amendments to the Sex Discrimination Act and that "sex is changeable". The court ordered Grover to pay A$10,000 to Tickle in damages, plus legal costs.
