Melbourne Update number 2

Ok, we are coming home from melbourne. Now we just need to sort out getting there.

I don't get it

On the feminist list I recently joined, someone posted some stuff which eventually lead to me poking around the Democrats women's site. It's a very interesting, well put together, cohesive, educational web page, plus it has some a couple of women on there who are worthy of note. It's a good page. I learn about myths about abortion. (Well, new ones, that I didn't know people said, but which are wrong.)

Cool.

I also check out the Labor pages on women. I find them, pretty easily, and open it up and just for fairness sakes, I check out the Liberals too.

You know, I didn't actually realise that there might not be a women's page. How naive of me!! LOL. Anyway, giving up, I opened up WA, only to discover there is a women's page, but a quick read of it shows how women can help Liberals, and nothing on how Liberals are helping women. Fuck 'em.

Anyway, reading the Labor pages, I'm not very happy here either. It was easier to find at least, but again it seems to be along the lines of how women can help Labor, not how Labor is helping women.

I want Labor and Liberal to be as CRYSTAL CLEAR about women as the Democrats are. I want a list of policies. I want them to actually treat me like a human being and say "This is what we are working towards, and this is how." It shouldn't be so bloody hard to find!
