In the early 1980’s Ms. Gillard had her first introduction into politics, whilst studying law at The University of Adelaide, joing the now-defunct Australian Union of Students (AUS). In 1982, after moving to Melbourne, she was elected National Education Vice-President, and the following year, President.
Some of the outrageous policies that the AUS adopted are detailed below:
• Adopted a policy on prostitution which, in part, said “Prostitution takes many forms and is not only the exchange of money for sex … Prostitution in marriage is the transaction of sex in return for love, security and housekeeping”.
• Supported all varieties of abortion, including during late term pregnancy.
• Asserted that ALL men exercise the threat of rape, ranging from subtle appeals to a woman’s mistaken sense of obligation, to direct threats, blackmail and even physical force.
• Grudgingly conceded that heterosexual coupling was a legitimate norm on campus.
•Declared that ‘All women are oppressed because they are women’.
