She's no dummy and good on her for telling people what she thinks instead of what they want to hear
What a lot of Bullshite. Clutching at straws Jimmy
Yeah, you're right. She should have just lied about
how she handled it and joined Gillard in the sinbin
I'm betting you didn't even read the article
As for clutching at straws - you compare it to "Things that batter" - - you comparing what she said with a bad joke about beating up women?
I did read the article and I'm guessing that from the way she was talking she was probably referring to the old make us a coffee love , what would a woman know etc comments. I was a supervisor in a factory when blokes hung out their old fellas to young girls, showed photos of girls in comprimising situations with their workmates to other blokes in the factory, make life unbearable for them if they wouldn't go out with someone, leave real graphic pron lying about where they could see it. I dont think this sort of thing should be swept under the carpet and it wasn't. A few of the older women heard about it and it was reported. Charges were even laid against 2 blokes.
I guess in judging and comparing certain things we are all guided by our experiences
