    So tell me this gwendoline, why is it necessary to have more women in politics.
    Shouldnt the gender of a politician be irrelevent.
    Shouldnt we be seeking quality politicians who can provide good government.
    Why is it necessary to seek more female politicians, as if being a female automatically qualifies
    a person as being more efficient at their job than a man.
    The whole idea of have more female politicians in government just to get women into
    politics is repulsive.
    Its as though we are being told simply because a politician is a woman, she'll do a fantastic job.
    Once again, its an example of the glaring, incessant promotion of women.

    Did you complain in the long past when the parliament comprised of solely men? That was not a merit system. Did you find it odd the parliament would comprise of mostly men? When half the population were women? Or the fact women weren't allowed to vote until about 50 years after men. (!) That's the patriarchy for you.

    It's not repulsive. It's called 'representation'.

    Labor has about 50/50. That is representation.

    You didn't complain when it was mostly just men in parliament, did you? That was probably your idea of representation, lol.

    Well good for you again...and dont forget to join in the fab new undies trend taking social media by storm...
    "And one such recent trend is seeing the Insta-famous strip down to their underwear as they film a time lapse of themselves getting dressed in the morning.
    Sounds bizarre, we know, but the videos utilise IGTV, which is a feature on Instagram that allows users to upload long-form video content, which is then prioritised on the explore page where it gets a larger reach."
    (Yahoo news)
    Nothing like a bit of soft porn to keep the exhibitionists happy....yawn yawn...
    Would this be to empower women, and gain respect...or just another way to get a root....

    Hilarious. Says the man who says women get into parliament "..simply because of their tits."

    Whats wrong with that? After all men only get into parliament because of their dicks - and then they promptly start acting like one.

    So we see, you agree a quota system for women in parliament is derogatory, demeaning and Juvenile.



    Since you agree, why are you set on insulting these people???

    I agree. Women shouldn't be shown by the media. They should be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen where they belong.

    Do you "need to be lectured about sexism and misogyny by this man?"
    Don't think so.

    Or at least the media should occasionally show
    some positive representation of
    being a housewife and a mother.
