@SRW_ANU @HonJulieBishop @MrKRudd @shiroarmstrong @SharonFrielOz 1/4 Where does gender and issues of women’s leadership feature in your vision for a forward-thinking Australian government in a Post-COVID geopolitical arrangement? #auspol #ReclaimTheseStreets #March4Justiceau #March4Justice
@SRW_ANU @HonJulieBishop @MrKRudd @shiroarmstrong @SharonFrielOz 2/4 Could you reflect on the institutionalized misogyny and ‘boys club’ attitudes that have led to the current sexual abuse allegations; and the inability to take women’s safety seriously even within government offices. #auspol #March4Justice #ReclaimTheseStreets
Unfortunately I can't attend #March4Justiceau today however these are the reasons #WhyIMarch (if I could) and why I signed the petition at march4justice.nationbuilder.com/?recruiter_id=… 1/
Because of my year 7 maths teacher who once called me up to the front of the classroom to demonstrate something by saying "come on, I want your body" which made me so ashamed that I was too sick to go to school the next day #WhyIMarch 2/
Because of my friend's private school mates who borrowed his phone to send me text messages about the size of my breasts #WhyIMarch 3/
Dominance and Entitlement: The Rhetoric Men Use to Discuss their Violence towards Women (1995). Some men share discourses of dominance and entitlement to power, which has then resourced them in their violence towards women. 1/20 #March4Justiceau #Auspol
Adams, Towns and Gavey (1995) transcribed 90 minute interviews with 14 men who had recently begun or were about to begin stopping violence programmes. Each interview prompted the men on their views towards women, violence and relationships. 2/20
Adams, Towns and Gavey (1995) found that socially constructed beliefs were often used to justify violence and recommended the following discourses as the foundation of critical conversations for change: 3/30
Big diverse crowd here in Boorloo / Perth minutes before the start of #March4Justice.
Nick Abraham and family welcoming all to county. #March4Justiceau
A nervous Dallas Phillips supported by her sisters reminds us #EnoughIsEnough. Hitting her stride now and not holding back. Personal stories and strong words resonate with the crowd. Refers to the current crisis as an epedimic.
A brilliant clinical psychologist once said two things contribute to trauma: 1. The survivor feels a sense of “I’m different/not the same” following the traumatic event. 2. The survivor did not receive empathy or compassion. 1/13 #March4Justice #Auspol
I will never forget the clinical psychologist shared a perfect example of two vastly different potentially traumatic events to illustrate the devastating impact of stigma:
1. A ‘natural disaster’.
2. ‘Being raped’. 2/13
1. A ‘natural disaster’.
2. ‘Being raped’. 2/13
A natural disaster includes the possible threat to life, homes, belongings, injuries, loss of loved ones. A rape includes the possible threat to life, survival, violation, contamination of self, identity, unwanted STDs or pregnancy, physical damage, fear of repeated abuse. 3/13
Three myths about trauma:
Traumatic events profoundly shock and overwhelm us. We can be exposed to trauma through deliberate harm, by natural disaster or accident, or by witnessing harm to others. 1/22

It could be a single, vivid event or a pattern of violence, like childhood or domestic abuse. It can happen in public, at work or at home, where we expect to feel safe. Trauma leaves us feeling powerless and afraid. 2/22
We might experience flash-backs and nightmares and want to retreat from the world. It’s very common to feel anger, guilt and mood swings, to become scattered and unproductive. 3/22
#WhyIMarch: ‘Let only the truth be the authority of your life; May you always be free.’ I will #March4Justiceau because I found the solution to justice: I switched from self-esteem (aka ‘survival of the fittest’) to self-compassion (aka ‘enlightenment’). 1/17 #Auspol
When I finished my psychology degree, I got the best mark across two university campuses. I was awarded a scholarship to undertake a PhD. I was teaching psychology at the university and my best friend was science. My PhD was on the neuroscience of emotion. 2/17
My research question was: Where is emotion in the brain? Well it turned out that emotion is not just in the brain. News flash: This is a living cosmos! Like it or not; we are all connected. Like star dust.🌟I challenged outdated theories; I even noted science’s reductionism. 3/17
The Federal Government has sole responsibility for immigration matters: policy, border control, visa grants and conditions, funding and support, and refugees and people seeking asylum held in immigration detention. 1/16 #March4Justiceau #TimeForAHome #Auspol
