With the announcement of Tony Abbotts new cabinet, it's no surprise that the feminists are out in force, as there is only one woman on the front bench.

So I ask these opponents to the appointment, which women should be on the front bench, who should they replace, and why?

Because quite frankly, if it's only another gender war, then it's time to either put up, or shut up, because people in top jobs MUST BE appointed due to expertise, not gender, otherwise we will have the situation of gender equality at any cost.

First let us look from a reality point of view.
Unlike short sighted Charlie Di had at least 3 lovers post the hissy fit at finding Charlie doing what his predecessors alway did, have an affair.
But Did had two children who took the line waiting for the crown to three Charlie and the kids.
How would any on of Dis bit on the side become HMK?
Royals need not have murdered her, she was well on the way to becomeing non Royal and a bit of a scandal.

I'm not at all surprised with Abbotts man-heavy front bench.
He needs all his boys around him to boost his action man appeal.
He reminds me of Vlad Putin in so many ways.

His condescending comment that good women were 'knocking at the doors of the front bench' made me cringe.

You can't tell me that there was only one woman in the Coalition party that was qualified to sit on the front bench?
Then again, if Julie Bishop was the benchmark, maybe that is true.

All those women who were fooled by Abbotts apparent 'change' into a moderate conservative in the last year before the election will be shocked.

I knew it all along.

Well, what do you know, A cabinet selected on ability, not affirmative action. Should be a big improvement in quality of government.
