Can I be refused service / access based on my sexuality or gender identity?

In most instances, it will be unlawful for anyone to refuse to provide services or access to you based on a banned ground of discrimination, including sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation.  If you experience this, you may lodge a complaint with the Human Rights Commission on the basis that you have been unlawfully discriminated against. If you feel you have been discriminated against,  you can then seek advice from YouthLaw or other your local community law centre.
