Upcoming Meetings: Auckland Region Zoom Call - 6 December 6PM
Gender
​
Resisting Gender Ideology
In 2021 every party in parliament voted unanimously for gender 'self-identification' — allowing people to change the sex on their birth certificate to an untrue "gender".
Men compete in women's sports, midwives must refer to mothers as 'birthing people', men and boys can use girls' toilets and changing rooms, and men are placed in women's prisons. Teachers are forced to use 'non-gendered' language, and one has recently been deregistered for refusing to use male pronouns and names for a teenage girl.
The madness will not stop until we put an end to it.
We affirm the biological reality that there are only two sexes, and oppose the lie that a person can be 'born in the wrong body', or can 'change their gender'. The establishment parties have taken a stand for confusion and the erasing of women — a party vote for The Conservatives is the only reliable option to fight back against this insanity.

Protecting Children
Children should be allowed to be children and should not be sexualised or made to question their gender in the name of 'education'.
We will seek to protect the innocence and the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of our children, including implementing a complete ban on:​
​
-
'Sex change' operations and the use of puberty blockers for children and young people.
-
Sex education in primary schools.
-
'Gender theory' education in all schools.
-
Ban children's events with "adult"/sexual themes (such as "Drag Queen Story Hour").
We would require all sex education content to be publicly available, to make it easy for parents to know what is being taught to their children. We would design a new syllabus that respects family values and focuses on the facts of human reproduction and development.
​
Respecting Women
We will ensure that the definition of a woman is legally restricted to those born biologically female (and that the definition of a man is legally restricted to those born biologically male).
We will require all government organisations to use correct biological terms like 'mother' instead of offensive neologisms like 'birthing person'.
​
Celebrating Manliness
New Zealand needs good men. Our long-term problem of fatherlessness is not helped by telling men and boys that their masculinity is toxic and unwelcome. The Conservatives will be a voice for men and the value of masculinity.
