is this how Australia is "moving forward".?.. o_O

I'm still gob-smacked that this man was elected. 

There are more women in Australia than men, did the women not vote?

He clearly doesn't believe in equality so who voted for him?

i get the impression that the majority of liberal voters don't know their policies at all.

i think that it will get worse because hardly anyone below 30 (or even 40) will know the "barefeet and pregnant" thing, so they aren't scared of what they don't know....

if they did, they would not have voted for them.

read a bit more here (or talk to real life people, doesn't matter which ones really) and you will get the same impression

so who voted for him?

apparently brainwashed murdoch readers

he somehow has the power to force people to read his newspaper....how i dont know

[kennedia_nigricans]

there is no other choice if you want a local paper and do not live in melbourne.

I would have to agree with you on the under 40 thing... they've had it too good since the feminist revolution (or so mum says..LOL)

to be honest - I'm not a party voter - I don't vote for the same party every election...

I base my vote on policies and expected outcome (if only half of what they say is true... blah)
But I can honestly say I have NEVER voted Liberal because I have NEVER liked their policies,

and I certainly would never vote for a man with such draconian attitudes.

How did such an uneducated man even get a leg in the door?

[kennedia_nigricans]

he is blokey. aussies like that. they aren't so much into philosohpy and thinking.

g'day LT

good to see you

[wooddeneye]

in what context have we been man bashing?

just because we make valid points for women doesn't make us misandrists

I just don't believe in the "barefoot and pregnant" stance that Tony does.
