AC,

I have to say that I don't see the point of Wong and that droning voice, and I am repelled by her sexual orientation. I am not supposed to say that of course, but there it is. She and her mean sisters have added nothing to Australia, and have done for the only woman in Labor worth a cracker. But, let's be honest, how many women have contributed anything to politics. How many of them have been anything but tokens to political correctness. On the Labor side one, now gone. On the Liberal/National side, none. We are left with Pauline Hanson as the only woman of any interest. In the political commentariate, we have one: Peta Credlin.

Women, in the main, are wonderful. They are just not cut out for certain occupations and activities, as the catiness against one of their own has highlighted. They are not meant for politics, AFL, cricket, military service, police etc.

In the meantime, Albanese has ruled out any investigation into bullying claims. What a hero! Scared of mean girls?

Scott Morrison, definitely scared of women, and eager for their votes, thinks that there should be an investigation; but it is none of his business.

Two of the mean girls have denied culpability, as they would; but Keneally has refused to comment, "out of respect for Senator Kitching's passing". No respect for the Senator, just her death.

ttbn,

How about broadening your outlook on women?

There's also histories of Australian women in the
police force, in sport, in politics, and the list
goes on.

Ever heard of Enid Lyons or Edith Cowan?

Thankyou, Foxy. I thought that I had made it clear that there are exceptions - Kitching, Credlin and Hanson. Apparently not.

I am not aware of any women distinguishing themselves in military combat, and I am used to seeing female police officers flapping about ineffectually at the edges of the frequent melees male officers have to deal with. I am personally acquainted with an ex-officer who is now a vegetable because his female partner did not have the size and strength - and perhaps not the grit - to assist him in a physical confrontation. He would undoubtedly still been in the job if he had had another male partner

Both sexes are good at the things they were 'designed' for.

ttbn,

May I again respectfully suggest that you have a read of this link:

awm.gov.au/women-in-defence

It's only one of many links that are available regarding
the roles that women have played over the years in positions
traditionally reserved for me.

Not all men are suitable for certain positions. The same applies
to women of course but to assign roles to them based on gender
only has never worked and still doesn't today. For every
sweeping generalisation - there will always be excemptions to
the rule. It has always been thus. We have to allow for
individual differences in each case. Yes there are short women -
just as there are shor men.

Here's the link again:
