Labor may well be wishing they’d never heard the name “Brittany Higgins”, right about now. What no doubt seemed like a golden opportunity to whack the then-Coalition government by weaponising a dubious rape allegation, is turning on them in the worst possible way. Left factional powerbroker and close ally
Is this the death of the “MeToo” phenomenon in Australia? Ever since it broke in the US, the Australian left, being the slavish imitators of the worst of American culture that they are, were desperately casting about for their own “MeToo” poster girl. For a while, Grace Tame was their
The backlash against rainbow groomerism is gathering pace in the sleepy island of Tasmania. And it’s members of the lesbian and gay communities who are taking up the baton.

The Doctor Recent examples of hatred toward women are legion, from the Posie Parker incident to the latest Adidas parody of an obviously bulbous man in a one-piece women’s swimsuit. This hatred goes beyond ordinary misogyny, you know, the Once Were Warriors kind where men denigrate or abuse women.

The biggest lie of the trans creepers is that they face a “genocide” of violence. The second-biggest lie is that they are a powerless, persecuted, helpless minority. While they are indeed a minority — less than a tenth of a per cent of the population — they enjoy ludicrously outsized power, presence
John Black stuffednz.co After being forced to cancel her solo tour of New Zealand back in March, Posie Parker is once again headed this way. And this time she’s bringing fellow women’s rights activist JK Rowling with her. Together they have formed a band, tentatively titled ‘TERF,
When you picture “autism”, you’ll probably picture Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man, or maybe some boy with weird mannerisms and a freakish maths ability. Whatever, you’ll absolutely picture a male. Not without reason: autism is a condition which notably affects males. Males are four times more likely to
Are we reaping the whirlwind of the Childcare Generations? Watching the collective tantrum-throwing, foot-stamping, tears and outrage whenever someone dares have a different opinion to ignorant youngsters, one has to wonder where we went wrong.

As a lesbian woman said to me recently, “Thank god I grew up ten years ago. If I was a kid today, they’d be trying to convince me that I’m trans!” This woman loved playing with her brothers’ Tonka trucks and didn’t fit “girly” stereotypes. Many years

Louise M Diack kiwi-chronicle.ghost.io Recently I’ve found myself longing for another era of not too long ago. A less complicated time when people knew what a woman was and this was celebrated. Women had carved out their place in the world – as entrepreneurs, mothers, corporate leaders, political
I really wish actors would learn to just do their little song and dance and then shut the hell up when the organ grinder stops. It’s one thing to know, in the abstract, that actors are mostly pretty stupid (as Sir Anthony Hopkins admits), quite another when another of
Will feminists ever learn to stop punching women in the face? Feminists of the 1970s told women they could “have it all”: career and family, independence and equal partnerships. A generation later, as Camille Paglia points out, “These women are miserable”. But the feminists of the 60s & 70s were
