Our study published today in Lancet Public Health reveals considerable variance in how different domains of unpaid labour affect mental health, as well as continued inequity in the division of unpaid labour in households. https://t.co/b2GR8rI1Rz #gender #inequality @unimelbMSPGH

Good article by Daisy Turnball. Imperative that we keep having these vital conversations, especially with our youth, and keep working tirelessly to shift damaging gender norms in this country. https://t.co/ueVsJRq9zZ

Exactly this.

In Australia, between 2008 to 2022, only 1.1% of published studies from leading Australian journals focused on migrant and refugee population! @iFECCA #Helen Skouteris

You Can’t Unsee What It Looks Like When You Photoshop Men Out of Politics. (ElleUK shows what it looks like when you remove all the men from pictures of politicians and celebrities. It’s a stark glimpse at a world that is wildly out of balance.) 2017. https://t.co/ko66LETEAm

Yaaaaay! Our paper with @BrenChurchill and @SabinoKornrich is accepted!!

We find:

Fathers in younger cohorts are doing more housework then previous cohorts but mother's time remains unchanged

All fathers are spending more time with children

But mothers still do more

Thrilled to have our glossary published by the BMJ. We hope this work facilitates the utility of more respectful, inclusive and consistent language application across the public health arena #SGM #gender #LGBTQ

Hats off to @abbie_herway for her passion and commitment to reporting and showcasing women’s sport - what a remarkable 12yr old human

[HER WAY @herwaysports]

A report out yesterday shows that women in the media are still over a decade away from achieving parity in representation. Only 18% of sports bylines were written by women

It's not that women can't work, or don't want to work, it's the other bits of life that the world wants from them and the expectations of gender that get in the way. Excellent article by @kitmcmahon

Women are at greater risk of job loss and sustained employment precarity after the covid-19 pandemic, with consequential effects on their health and wellbeing. Responses to covid-19 must attend to gendered effects. See our article with @humairamaheen @ytaouk & Tony LaMontagne

#NotAllMen fails to understand the role we play in holding abusive men to account
Why are so few men engaging in the issue of violence against women?
