Not having had their bodily autonomy challenged recently by the automated recordings of Barnaby Joyce, many women say they now lack direction.
A majority of young Australian women are excited that a politician who left his wife and daughters to be with his pregnant girlfriend before facing sexual harassment allegations may soon return to the Deputy Prime Ministership. These women say they are always keen to learn more from prominent older men about what they should and shouldn’t do when it comes to reproduction.
In general, women respect the fact that Barnaby has the moral fortitude to campaign passionately both for his own privacy on family matters but also call them at home to misinform them about private medical procedures.
Not every woman is so positive about male entitlement. Some are resolutely pro-abortion, especially when it comes to Joyce’s political career.
