After seeing a common response to my comments on the killing of #KellyWilkinson, I want to clear up a misconception. Those who claim that I blame all men for men’s violence or violence against women have fundamentally missed my point.
Perhaps, from otherwise noble intentions, they have misunderstood what I’ve been saying all along: I don’t say all men are violent or that all men are to blame for the actions of others. I say all men are responsible for helping end violence against women. There’s a difference.
We live in a culture that continues to mistreat women. Stress harassment, workplace inequality, unequal representation. A culture where men commit the overwhelming majority of violence, regardless of the gender of the victim. This doesn’t occur in a vacuum.
#HERNAMEIS KELLY WILKINSON
At 7am this morning, police attended a Gold Coast home where they found the body of Kelly Wilkinson tied and burnt. Kelly's three children all aged under 9 were inside the home.

Queensland police have charged a 34-year-old man with murder and breaching a domestic violence order.
Before someone comments #NotAllMen, let me abundantly clear: All men play a responsibility in addressing the attitudes that lead to men's violence against women.

Kelly Wilkinson's death was preventable. She had a domestic violence order taken out against this man. Yet the degree of men's entitlement that leads to such crimes must be addressed at every level.
MISOGYNY IS NEVER OK.
Earlier today I was sent these images about a male-only group on Facebook called “Melb guys pal”.
The boys and men in this group are sharing explicit videos and pictures of their female exes, without their consent.

One of the individuals has wished for a holocaust for women.
Another has encouraged the group members to ‘like’ his post so he can share more explicit images of his ex-partner.
The group is littered with examples of rampant misogyny, sexism and degradation of women.

Arguably, the most tame commentary in this group is referring to women as “dishwashers” and degrading what these so-called “men” see as “women’s work.”
Sexism and misogyny is never OK. Not just because we are in a global pandemic of a novel #coronavirus, but all the time.
