I argue that "this list also highlights a deeper issue: Australia in general remains a sexist country", with "research by the @GIWLkings and IPSOS [finding] that Australian men have some of the most sexist views in the Western world."

I write that, "as a university lecturer, I believe we have a duty to our students as well as society to provide better education on consent, sex, and sexuality, but also on gender equality - to undo the normalisation of sexism and sexual harassment."

"Universities have been widely criticised by student bodies, safety advocates, the media, and politicians, not only for failing to protect students but for the onerous complaint mechanisms that re-traumatise survivors [and] our campuses have long struggled with misogyny."
