CricketFrom 2011 McGregor has been a cricket writer for The Spectator,[2] a cricket commentator for The Australian,[3] and the Australian Financial Review,[4] and the author of a book, An Indian Summer of Cricket, published on 24 November 2012.[5] In a 2012 review, Tony Abbott, then federal Leader of the Opposition, described the book as "the best sort of book about sport" for "those who think that sport can be a metaphor for life". Abbott called the Chief of Army's launch of the book "a fitting salute to [moral] courage"[6] In late 2016, McGregor resumed her cricket career playing for a Canberra women's cricket team, and stated she wished to play in the Women's Big Bash League.[7][8] It is reported that she uses drug therapy, has high levels of oestrogen and no longer produces testosterone.[8] MilitaryIn 2012, McGregor was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia in the Military Division for "exceptional service to the Australian Army as the Director of the Land Warfare Studies Centre".[9] Following a period between 2010 and 2013 when numerous ADF personnel were involved in misogynistic behaviour (including the non-consensual filming of sexual encounters with women),[10] Chief of Army, Lieutenant General David Morrison AO responded in a video speech which was written by McGregor.[11] In the speech he described the actions as a "direct contravention" of the Army's values, and said "those who think that it is okay to behave in a way that demeans or exploits their colleagues have no place in this army." [10] In 2013, David Morrison "refused to accept her resignation when she went public" as transgender.[12] In November 2013 McGregor was the highest ranking transgender person in the Army, and the speechwriter and strategic adviser for David Morrison.[13] In 2013 there were a number of social media exchanges involving McGregor[14] for which the Department of Defence made a payment in compensation.[15] McGregor transferred to the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) on 20 June 2014 to work on projects for the Chief of Air Force.[16] In 2015 McGregor, in considering having gender reassignment surgery said, "it’s about being congruent in your identity. I would like to feel whole,"[1] and that any sex change, "will be funded independently with no taxpayer assistance".[17] Queenslander of the YearIn 2015 McGregor was named as Queenslander of the Year, despite not living in Queensland,[18] and as such became a finalist for 2016 Australian of the Year,[19] which was subsequently awarded to her previous commanding officer, David Morrison. She described the selection of Morrison as a "weak, conventional choice",[20] a comment for which she subsequently apologised.[21][22] In December 2016 McGregor was removed from the Australian of the Year honour roll at her request. She has stated that the awards are a "farce" and that she regrets having accepted one.[23] McGregor has also argued that the awards are being used by activists.[24] Post military careerMcGregor has been appointed as a patron of Kaleidoscope Australia, a not-for-profit organisation focused on promoting and protecting the rights of LGBTI people in the Asia Pacific region[25] and is to move into trans-advocacy, on a full-time basis.[26] In September 2016, it was reported that McGregor had been "sacked" by Kaleidoscope Australia because of her criticism[27] of the Safe Schools program.[28][29] However in May 2018, McGregor declared she had been wrong to oppose the Safe Schools program. "It's an excellent program, and it saves lives." "I should have been a supporter from the start. I regret that I wasn't." "Young trans people need an ally. I could have helped, and I didn't, and I regret that."[30] See also
