Wow... the ABC covered Reem Alsalem's UN Statement?! Impressive.

It would have been more impressive if they had omitted the untruth that #LetWomenSpeak was an "anti-trans" rally; it doesn't even have the word "trans" in it.

If women are "anti-trans", then what are trans?

(anti-women - for those at the back, there).

Thanks, Dolls!

You make me lols.

(...and yeah; male midwives *are* a bit weird... like male-gynos, imo. I'm fine with a male nurse!)

Yeah there's just something a bit ... weird ... about a male midwife. Statistically, you don't see them very often at all (like 1% of midwives, IIRC?) so there's that aspect to it. It is "weird" as in "unusual". No shade out there to the man-mid-wives out there.

Also on the Reem / ABC front. It's interesting to see how they've picked up on it as a wedge to drive through the Liberal Party. I truly wonder if it would have seen the light of day if Moira had been a Green. It's vitally important to keep these different conversational angles going because they'll appeal to different people and move them into a conversation.
