For anyone feeling the need to comment on this post, I encourage you to look at the Family Violence dashboard produced by the Crime Statistics Agency in Victoria. In 2024-2025 73% of perpetrators of family violence were male.

Police respond to a domestic violence situation every two minutes in this country.

This is why “joking” about violence against women is not funny. Ever.

It normalises VAW and provides cover for men who think violence is acceptable.

@angelapippos @WomensAgenda Well said Ange

Domestic and family violence hasn't been a major election issue. While the major parties are starting to talk about it, it's not enough. @Kate_FitzGibbon @OurANU @MonashUni https://t.co/L2XVP8J7qp

[Claudia Fatone @cfatone]

Thank you for your leadership @TimRichardsonMP As you point out this was more than commentary on a bad sporting performance and so incredibly harmful.

[Tim Richardson MP @TimRichardsonMP]

As @Respect__Vic highlights, research tells us that sexism and disrespect towards women contribute to a culture that allows, justifies, or even promotes violence towards women. 

It is why we need to call it out and learn to do better!

Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, marking the start of the 16 days of Activism.

In 2023 every 10 minutes globally a woman is killed by a partner or family member. In 2022 the rate was one woman killed every 11 minutes. 1 minute matters.

This increase in rate of women killed equates to:

💔 13 more women killed every day
💔 92 more women killed every week
💔 398 more women killed each month
💔 4,773 more women killed in a year

Every life matters. There is #NoExcuse. This is a global crisis.
This #16days UNiTE to End Violence against Women.

Her name was Melissa Hoskins, an Olympic cyclist, a mother of two. She was a daughter and a friend. Media reporting should tell her story not his. It’s time to change the narrative

South Australian former world champion Rohan Dennis was arrested and charged with causing death by dangerous driving, driving without due care and endangering life: https://t.co/ThPHiXeyQj

Congrats ⁦@arcjustice⁩ on the launch of your new strategic plan. ⁦Look forward to continuing to work together to support women in regional Victoria

[Claudia Fatone @cfatone]

On average, every 10 days in Australia a woman is killed by a man they know. It doesn’t have to be this way – violence against women and family violence is preventable. Joining the Walk Against Family Violence is an opportunity to take action in solidarity with victim-survivors.

Such sad news. Graeme was a wonderful man. My thoughts are with his family, friends & all at @RingwoodCC

[Cricket Victoria @cricketvictoria]

Cricket Victoria extends its condolences to the family and friends of CV Life Member Graeme O’Donnell following his passing earlier this week. Mr O’Donnell was a long-time delegate for @RingwoodCC. Vale.

[Kate Fitz-Gibbon @Kate_FitzGibbon]

Matildas fever has swept across Australia. After decades of hearing the phrase “you play like a girl” being used as insult, to see women’s sport exalted on the world stage is a glimmer of what a future where women are equal looks like.

Fantastic piece by @Respect__Vic on why we’re so excited about the Matildas https://t.co/2jUeVkFMKA

[Claudia Fatone @cfatone]

Congrats on this incredible milestone! Proud to have played a small contribution. Excited for the continued impact you will have.

[The Man Cave @themancave_aus]

Man Cave has now worked with 50,000+ young men 🙏

We reached a milestone recently that we’re pretty proud of - since 2014, our preventative mental health programs have reached more than 50,000 young men across Australia.

[Kate Fitz-Gibbon @Kate_FitzGibbon]

Almost every week in Australia a woman is killed by a man they know. Here’s what we need to be shouting from the rooftops: violence against women is preventable. It doesn’t need to be this way.
