"I think it would be folly to expect that women will ever dominate or even approach equal representation in a large number of areas simply because their aptitudes, abilities and interests are different for physiological reasons"

Tony Abbott (via this proposed ad from GetUp!)

He wrote this (and more) about the feminist movement at Sydney Uni in 1979. When given the opportunity to take this ‘adolescent silliness’ back 30 years later, he refused.

He’s not just a joke of a party leader, he’s a joke of a human being.
