If you don't think racism exists in Australia, why do we see rapid political changes in #genderequity in the face of toxic and systemic masculinity in parliament, but are still waiting for any real changes where Aboriginal #deathsincustody are concerned nearly 20 years later???

[Sara Weuffen @SaraWeuffen]

@TeflonProtocol 100% agree. Was thinking this morning, if there’s nothing in the claims, why not have them investigated further to prove it, rather than coming out AFTER an anonymous letter?

#sexism is alive and well in #australianpolitics ... when #LindaReynolds takes sick leave to deal with the mental stress of the #BrittanyHiggins situation, her capacity to cope with the stress of her job is questioned. Whereas ...

[Sara Weuffen @SaraWeuffen]

At the same time, *controversy warning* we need to apply caution at unquestioningly claiming innocence or guilt because sometimes allegations are made that have no basis ... what about a #lie detector test - or are they not a thing anymore?

You almost had me ... The tears, the emotion, and the battling against the barrage of questions had me thinking ‘lay off him’. Wow! Way to flip the focus

This is not about male bashing but exposing the toxic #sexist culture permeating #patriarchy ... there is hope though... when the announcement of a code of conduct was released, my 14-yr old son said ‘der, that’s commonsense. Just don’t be an idiot!’

[Sara Weuffen @SaraWeuffen]

@JackLit10200548 Well as the top legal representative / guardian of Australia he upholds the white, Anglo Saxon, male right to be innocent until PROVEN guilty, right?! ... Hard to do when your ‘alleged’ victim can no longer use her voice

The huge question at the heart of this: Why would the poor woman - who. took. her. life - lie? Why? Why would she make this up.

[Sara Weuffen @SaraWeuffen]

It’s almost like the claims of systemic sexism and culture of #patriarchy in Australian politics by women who work in these spaces has substance ... but they’re just complaining and nagging ... they just need to toughen and man up right?!

[Sara Weuffen @SaraWeuffen]

When #ChristianPorter stands in front of national media, becomes teary, denies historical rape allegations, and takes stress leave to deal with his mental health, his capacity to do the job is not questioned ...

Despite finalising a project, why is it so hard to delete all of the draft files - I’m talking like 50!? #academicanxiety

Let’s just take a moment for the Queedom campaign in NZ. It’s surprising how unnewsworthy 2 females vying for the top job has been. Hopefully that’s because we finally reached the stage where gender in politics isn’t a barrier, rather than misogynistic inattention

@drlindagraham It will be interesting to see from what disciplinary-perspective these experts will hail from. Prediction STEM?

@DanTehanWannon ‘instead of studying history ... teach history instead’. Pray tell, how will #teachers learn about new developments about our #history, and not just regurgitate colonised versions, without #historians?
