A transgender ex-Greens candidate and former soldier is suing a journalist over a series of posts calling transgender people men.

Bridget Clinch, 39, has filed four anti-discrimination complaints in Queensland and Canberra against those she believed have misgendered her and others like her.

Her most recent has been with drive-time radio journalist and feminist Beth Rep, with their dispute going before the ACT Human Rights Commission in July.

But the two were deemed unable to conciliate, and now they are disagreeing over the definition of vilification.

A vilification and victimisation complaint was mediated between the two at the ACT Civil and Administrative Affairs Tribunal but Ms Clinch claimed the anti-transgender rhetoric from the reporter continued.

The most recent post by Ms Rep on the matter of transgender woman was a compilation of headlines including 'salon that refused trans woman waxing stands by its decision'.

The Brisbane woman told Daily Mail Australia: 'Since then she has continued to vilify trans people regularly.'

Ms Clinch said all but this particular complaint had been settled by simply sitting down with the other party and talking the issue out, but that had not been possible in this case.

The 2016 political candidate has now decided to pursue Ms Rep for damages.

Ms Clinch said she hoped the matter could be resolved so both parties could move on.

She said: 'I want to move past this. I'm tired of people messaging me and saying have you seen that someone's said this on Reddit.'

The 39-year-old said her issues with the anti-transgender community began earlier this year, when her organisation Queensland Rainbow Greens withdrew their support from the International Women's Day due to a visible anti-transgender presence.

When contacted by Daily Mail Australia for comment, Ms Rep confirmed Ms Clinch was seeking financial compensation from her - with the next hearing scheduled for February

She said: 'I disagree with her definition of vilification. She has decided that me continuing to question transgender people breaks the agreement.

'We're really keen to have a conversation about it and start some dialogue.'

The reporter said her questioning of transgender women stemmed largely from the fact they have different experiences to her.

Ms Rep said she also paid for Ms Clinch's flights from Brisbane to Canberra for their earlier legal proceedings.

The journalist has also already responded on Facebook following an interview by The Australian with Ms Clinch.

She said: 'Looking forward to all the positive energy and love letters about to be sent my way after being labelled a (gasp) 'feminist' in this article.'
