I'm not asking for AFLW to be called AFL, they should all have distinct names.

I thought they did have distinct names.

AFL
AFLX
AFLW

Drove through an area they were doing construction. There was a worker holding up a slow down sign. Noticed worker was a female. On the way back there was another worker holding up a stop sign. Noticed the worker was also female.

In the olden days, such jobs were reserved for men.

Progress yo!

AFL is not distinct by gender, which AFLW is required to be. These kinds of naming privileges are within the textbook definition of male privilege.

 

[Moshie The Mook]

The AFL should go gender neutral, and let everyone choose their pronouns.

Ever noticed that they're usually hot?

Certainly caught my attention.

Was surprised how good at the job she was. I was slowing down and being safe like nobodies business.

Most of the "HOT" girls holding the lolly pop signs are here on working visa's from the UK/Europe

Misogynists, islamic and non islamic, can all * off and expire somewhere.

“I couldn’t decide if the perpetrators were Islamist misogynists, infuriated by the mural’s opposition to Saudi Arabia’s male guardianship system,” she said. “Or Islamophobic racists, infuriated by the mural’s depictions of proud Middle Eastern women and assertion of multifaceted Muslim identities.”

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

lmao at ur face

The cafe owner's quote later in the article should give us our prime suspects in this case:

And when she allowed Ms Saffaa to paint the Saudi women’s mural on the wall of her café, Muslim men circled her building threateningly, glowering.

 

[Jello_B]

The cafe owner's quote later in the article should give us our prime suspects in this case:

The peers and general societal expectations of non-Muslim people would rightly criticise this type of behaviour (with exceptions of course). What would the general opinion of Muslim men be, particular the more recent arrivals.

 

[Chubberson]

LMFAO

Seems a bit harsh. I don't agree with the trashing of a mural, but if someone believes in accordance to their religion that men should be the maintainers of women and are superior to them, then why is that necessarily wrong? Maybe they're right, and you're wrong.

Will you ever stop being such an attention seeker?

Probably need to get your eyes checked dude

You're right and literally everyone else is wrong.

It's not attention seeking to take the position that people are entitled to their religious beliefs. The point was recently made in the media regarding Israel Folau and his views on homosexuality. These are his religious beliefs, he's entitled to them, and who are we to say he is wrong? Maybe you will go to hell for being homosexual.

I guess the hell will be full of those gays, lesbians, whores and sluts all making the sex whilst up in heaven they'll be casually enjoying their chastity.

or make a competition for every separate gender. I mean we're up over 50 now, aren't we? Shouldn't be a problem. Imagine how proud you'd be if your club won the AFL's "Trans von gender demi boy" Cup. We'd be Xi-ing and Xir-ing all over the place.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Holy s**t lol

India getting serious: India's cabinet approves death penalty for child rapists after public outrage over violent cases

Meanwhile, rapists have been known to get sentenced to community service in countries with "feminist" governments

We just need to respect women, and don't use naming that suggest the male version of AFL is the main version of AFL and the female version is somehow a lesser form of AFL.

Naming is important.

I don't like the death penalty, but at least they're doing something. There have been some of the worst high-end rape crimes over there recently, or so it seems.

Why is the death penalty the pinnacle of good governance?

Which governments are "feminist" governments?

Why the air quotes?
