@David_Cormack Convo with my Grandma years ago.
Her: they're putting up Māori signs. Waste of money!
Me: I really liked it in parts of Britain where they had some of the signs in Gaelic.
Her: oh me too, I loved those!
Her: oh
In summary, their target market might not like this either.

@CateOwen@nzdodo@BeccaBarnesCats 1. Trans women are women
2. NZ has one of the highest rates of gendered violence in the OECD.
Both are true and we need to take care that in defence of all our sisters, we don't pretend that gendered violence, overwhelmingly committed by cis-men, doesn't exist.
My considered, academic opinion is that the CEO of Te Pukenga needs to either read the Act or resign and take a job in a country that shares his understanding of "academic freedom", like maybe Russia or Iran.
And you can quote me.

@kylemacd@janlogie It's important to note that it's making women sicker (the study was of 1400 women). Like other women's health issues, it gets ignored.
@andrewtychen But there will always be occasions where life happens / you have to rearrange ro accommodate work demands, and if there's a kid/baby at some meetings then that's ok.
@andrewtychen I used to talk to my team about context switching. You can be a good parent, you can be a good cook, you can be a good employee, but you can't be all of these at the same time. Arrange you day so you have focused time to be all of the things 1/2
feels like twitter has r i t chie h@rdcore discourse once or twice a year and organisations keep giving him places better taken by women.
he's clearly terfy and problematic if you just did a modicum of research. it's so grim.
The Police Commissioner said the increase in violence in the wake of #CycloneGabrielle is family violence. Here's some reports where women victim-survivors have said what they need @dbseymour@PaulGoldsmithMP talk about this, not useless "law and order"

@GGrucilla @carenwilton Thank you for helping. Perhaps ignoring the men and pretending to be a long lost friend might be safer next time? (Isn't it horrible that we have to think about strategies to protect ourselves while helping other women).
@FrustratedKiwi1@Larissacomments@BLACKCAPS Ok wow lots of men defending rape.
Before 1986, it was legal to rape your wife in NZ. It's still rape even if the courts don't deem it to be a crime. Rape = there was no consent. He admitted there was no consent. He is a rapist.
