Canberra, we have things to say.
Women ask that you listen.
We ask for privacy, safety, dignity and fairness.
We ask that our children are allowed to grow up with healthy intact bodies.
We ask that our boundaries are respected.
And for that we are called nazis.

And for that we are called nazis.
#LetWomenSpeak
We have been silenced, vilified, threatened with rape and physical violence. We have been intimidated. We have lost our jobs, our children, our families.
We have been defamed and libelled.
All because we know that men cannot be women and we will say so.
#WomenWillSpeak
We have been defamed and libelled.
All because we know that men cannot be women and we will say so.
#WomenWillSpeak
We ask that the politicians of this country set aside their prejudices & preconceptions. Set aside the false ideas and media lies. Set aside the mantras so mindlessly chanted and please listen to the women of this country; our concerns, our experiences, our accumulated wisdom.
