Some disturbing sh*t going on there.....Private school kids do have a penchant for this sort of stuff, having went to a private school myself I can confirm a group of boarding students played the game soggy biscuit....When I heard about it I thought it had to be bullshit, but it was later confirmed by a friend who declined the invitation to join. So sometimes it doesn’t even involve females....

Haha, yeah soggy buiscuit.
I'm actually not having a go at them or the people, there is problems everywhere.
Was just cause of a post I made earlier of targeting groups instead of targeting everyone.
As in if you care about all this shit, they're gonna run the country so targeting them is a good idea.
Or better yet if you really care, don't vote for anyone Liberal or Labor, male or female cause you know where they came from.

With the Liberals winning only 2 seats in yesterday's WA election, questions are now being asked if they'd lose their party status

The Nationals with 4 seats will be the opposition party, and that may be the only reason they retain party status - requirements are to hold 5 seats to retain minor party status

Yeah but at the same time it would still be minorities within groups. There’s also a big difference between knobs acting like idiots (or worse) and getting away with it, and this notion that it’s encouraged by everyone. Have my doubts on that.

Some of those cases are absolutely legitimate, some I’m not so sure. Do people really think only Private school teenagers rate girls - who are their own age - on looks? Really? You’ve never been around teenagers, well, ever? And teenage girls (or women) don’t do something pretty close with men? Never worked with women if people think that.

You’re right it’s the specific cases within groups that should be the concern, not groups as a whole. That’s just nuts.

Yeah I should of said not everyone but that was whole my point to start with.
No point preaching to the converted.
Yeah minorities within groups. Most private school people are great. StKevs is a great school IMO.
Politicians are usually in that minority.
Arrogant dicks are usually arrogant dicks to cover up a lack of talent or a short coming.
Politicians generally can't succeed in the real world at the level of their elite school peers so politics is the go.
And that's why I specifically said females too.
The 2 ministers in trouble in this whole sacndal thing are female.
And I can assure everyone if dug up Labor would be no different at all. Exactly the damn same.
That's why if you really care about change don't vote for any of them. None of them, not the men not the women, neither side.
And if you do...well try not to complain when it happens again.
And if you really, really care. Speak up about cultures and religions that treat women like shit. Don't ignore and accept that problem.
You can't target all men cause of serial killers. They are outlying freaks.
You can't target all men cause of sexism when most didn't come from elite systems or cultures that promote it.
Well you can, i don't really care but its wasting energy.

F**k. Another day another rant.

This Government is a f**king disgrace.



Can't even spare 5 minutes to pop out of her office? What a joke.

Same with McCormick, but he also kinda manages to throw Payne under the bus as being the one to take the submission

Yes, how the world can keep turning is remarkable.

How dare she as a woman dare to think for herself. Disgraceful.

watch this request get rejected

 

[cats_09]

in 2013 the Liberal party won 31 seats & held the majority in their own accord without needing to form a coalition (seems a more sporadic thing in WA is the Liberal/National coalition)

Last election those numbers dropped to 13 seats and now to 2 seats - that's just crazy numbers to see how sharp the decline has been

Murray Walker died

Surely not the one in the blue at least. Looks nothing alike.

talk about a bad take.

this isn’t to do with her gender it’s to do with her f#%*ing job as MINISTER FOR WOMEN.

If it isn’t to do with gender why does the article start with “the most senior woman in the Morrison government”.

Maybe you should contact her. I’m sure she’d welcome being told how to behave by other people.

I'm sure it's a surprise to some to see that the minister for women is actually a woman, considering that Abbott gave himself that role in earlier years

As for why it starts in such manner, maybe because it's a basic fact - Payne is the Foreign Minister & the Minister for Women, she is the most senior of the women in the cabinet and yet she has declared herself unavailable to attend for even 5 minutes, yet members from other parties have said they want to attend and cross benchers are trying to get a short break in proceedings to ensure they are able to attend
