@BowenBBC I really enjoyed following your personal story in the middle east and got a richer understanding of the connections and issues involved. Thanks for making this complex topic accessible and approachable.
In heterosexual couples, the burden of the mental load falls primarily on women. Here’s what can be learned from same-sex couples when it comes to the division of household labour. https://t.co/CkoKsv6qZB
"Over recent months, I continue to be confused by opinion piece upon opinion piece attempting to convince me that my mental health and even my career will take a nosedive due to my work from home status," writes Tammy Wayne-Elliot.

Gendered #ageism sits at the intersection of age and #genderbias and is a double whammy where there is “no right age” for professional women. https://t.co/CKZ6055EFt
In our research we found that women were told they were too young to lead, too old to lead...and middle age wasn't quite right either. As it turns out no age is the right age to be a woman leader. See my latest @HarvardBiz article for solutions.

Horrific incidents of sexual violence, including rape, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, and physical violence, are being reported by women and girls who have fled the conflict in Sudan - reportedly perpetrated by fighters, criminals, and smugglers.

Many ABC colleagues, and those elsewhere in the media, are subject to gross, unfair and appalling abuse just for doing their jobs.
It's never been okay. I'm glad we're going to be doing more to say more loudly that we won't stand by - we'll push back.
It’s sad an awful #agedcare story is making national headlines. I’ve been following my own aged care storyfor more than a year. Here’s the latest:
Investigation finds aged care staff waited 21 minutes to call ambulance for resident found in pool of blood https://t.co/Y7kcQyicnJ
THE @meaa members @ ABC Gippsland stands with Stan Grant as he faces relentless racism & abuse. This violence against Stan & others journalists is disgusting. We acknowledge our indigenous colleagues face this vile abuse daily. Its not good enough #istandwithstan#werejectracism
Setting an expectation that it’s OK (or even necessary) to work beyond your contracted hours disadvantages those that need flexibility, such as carers, who are typically women. https://t.co/JDcn7Xi76u
Yesterday was a bad day for our democracy and our fundamental rights. But most of all it was a bad day for Richard Boyle, a brave whistleblower who did the right thing. @MarkDreyfusKCMP must act - he can no longer stand on the sidelines. My column @theage https://t.co/ppJ0TWGFhM
When I started at the ABC I was put on a graduate salary despite 7 years of journo experience + 10 years on ag business & govt. We’re asking ABC management to pay regional staff what they are worth so they can keep serving their communities #DontDiscountABC
I ❤️ working @ ABC, & covering regional communities (like mountain calf sales!) but we want sustainable careers for regional staff. Regional staff earn about $25k less than metro staff, & many are told they can’t earn any more despite decades of experience(1/2) #DontDiscountABC
“Women are disproportionately affected by the world's most pressing issues. Equally, we are not adequately represented in the halls of power where decisions are made.” - Grace Forrest #CrackingTheCode#IWD2023#Perth@WalkFree
When women are targeted online, the abuse is more likely to be sustained, sexualised and linked to offline violence than when men are targeted online. We must crack the code to cyber misogyny and abuse.

It’s happening…for the first time since 2006 ABC staff will strike over pay, conditions next Tuesday. We don’t like being the story, but we want to make it clear to mgt we want a fair pay deal that enables progression for regional staff #dontdiscountABC https://t.co/5zGjyIYhRO
