    Georgie Stone is an amazing Australian actress these days. She has just finished her 4 years as Mackenzie on Neighbours, and I wish her all the best with whatever she chooses to do next in her life!
    Georgie has grown into a beautiful woman, and I'm so happy for her and her wonderful family. 💖🇭🇲

    Heart warming and pulled at the strings, I'm SO glad that she has a supportive family and has changed the laws in Australia. I didn't realise that when she first appeared in Australian soap Neighbours as a transgender character that the groundbreaking storylines she played was mirrored off screen as well.
    Well done on Neighbours bringing this storyline onto our screens and I'm looking forward to seeing the soap returning to Amazon Freevee A.S.A.P .
    Shame on Channel 5 in U.K which cancelled the show bringing it to an abrupt end in 2022, but well done on Amazon coming to the soap's rescue and I can't wait to see if Georgie Stone will reprise her role as Mackenzie Hargreaves

    Canadian in Australia:
    I used to mentor troubled teens in Australia and if a young guy showed any sensitivity or wasn't into sport he was automatically called a "fag". Shame on the parents who raised those rotten minded kids who caused so much damage.
    My kids were born and raised in Australia until they were 10 and 15 when we moved back to Canada to care for my mother. Even though they'd been raised by my Canadian value system, they were still shocked at how diverse everything is here. They had friends of all colours, sexuality, etc. None of that superficial stuff mattered.
    I love Australia, it's my second home, but I never fit into the close-minded aspect of the culture. I moved there in 1989 after meeting and marrying an Australian here in Canada. When I first got to Sydney, I couldn't even buy a car without my husband shaking hands with the salesman even though it was my money I was handing over. I was absolutely stunned, to say the least. This was 1989, not 1889!!! My husband was humiliated as hadn't thought to warn me about such things before I moved there. He probably didn't realize what it was like until he saw it through my Canadian eyes.
    I considered myself to be equal with men but Aussie women were still bowing to their men. Yes, it was really 1989!!! Sydney, big city, educated successful circle of friends. I also learned very quickly not to talk about any of my gay or lesbian friends back here in Canada, as that was not an acceptable conversation.
    Australia was a very foreign land to be sure. I grew to love it, but just knew what the limitations were. It was home for 16 years and I would never have left if my mom hadn't gotten ill. All my friends there were white, Australian, straight and I knew what was acceptable conversation.
    Now that I'm back in Canada I can talk about anything and everything and everyone. Much freer. Could I live in Australia again? Absolutely, I love 99% of the experience and know exactly how to fit in and be happy there.
    I'm sure Australia has come a long way since we left in 2005 but I'm glad my kids finished growing up here to cement their non-judgemental values.

    I appreciate how this story evolved, showing the gender issues present at such a young age and the parents struggle, as well as the child's, without the obnoxious parading around and waving signs like they do here in the US. This young person just wants to live a normal life without seeking any special rights, like any other teenager would, and I appreciate how articulately she described the process. Best of luck to her...no doubt she will succeed at anything she pursues.

      Did you miss the part (at15:44) where Georgies parents were absolutely fearful that they couldn't stop puberty without blockers, and at the time of the filming of this video, trans children had to go to COURT to get approved for puberty blockers. That would not have changed without substantial public pressure like waving signs and parading around. It's called protesting, and they did (and still do) a great deal of that in Australia. You just don't see it on FOX TV. Here in the US, we have to deal with a much larger, much more ignorant electorate about trans rights, so parading around and waving signs is to be expected. Oh, and nobody is asking for "special rights", unless you call freedom from discrimination a special right.

Her mother has also published a book with the same name detailing Georgie's story and how their family dealt with Georgie's transition. Georgie is flourishing - proudly the first openly transgender character on Australian TV and still actively advocating for trans rights. One incredibly amazing and inspirational young woman.

    Since gender is a social construct, if we as a society move away from the black and white / male OR female, then it wouldn't be as awful for those who don't feel they fit into either - prior to colonisation, many cultures around the world had more than 'male' or 'female' gender identities. In Samoa, there is FaFaFine (not spelt right) - the word and identity for boys who are feminine and live as women. It's not big deal. Other cultures simply has what we would call 'a third gender' - male, female, and those who were one gender but lived as the other. People in those societies weren't excluded or made to feel different. They didn't 'struggle' - it was just how it was.

    Wow I wish I had parents like them. My parents threw me outside the life and house. I became homeless and lived on the streets
