Something a little different today. Here is a recording from Australian Senate Estimates. Senate Estimates allow Australian senators to scrutinise government spending and operations.
Here Senator Malcolm Roberts questions the gynocentrism deeply embedded in the Australian government. Senator Roberts isn’t the first to do this. Australia has had several senators that have used Senate Estimates to call out feminist dominance in the public sector.
In this case public servants actually mentioned bidirectional (aka reciprocal) partner violence briefly. After decades of denial that’s a significant step forward, even if they downplay it. Ignoring reciprocal partner violence hurts both men and women. Even if they were only concerned about women they should still take it seriously. The fact that they don’t speaks volumes.
