24.01.2022 Want to earn less than your peers when you finish University? Didn't think so! But if you're a woman starting out at work in Australia the gender pay gap is a reality: on average male final-year undergraduate students have a higher starting wage than female students. How can this be true in 2020? Well, we still undervalue many female-dominated professions, women continue to be under-represented in leadership roles and entrenched gender biases often mean we think certain roles... are only suitable for men. This affects women professionally, financially and personally. Learn about the underlying causes of the gender pay gap in Australia: https://www.youtube.com/watch #16DaysDeakin #16DaysofActivism #OrangeTheWorld #callitout @RespectVictoria If you or someone you know is impacted by sexual harm, or domestic or family violence, contact 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732.

24.01.2022 What if gender stereotypes just don't apply to me? Narrowly defining what it means to be a man or woman ignores the diversity that exists in human sex, sexuality and gender. Rigid gender roles and stereotypes don't just impact those who identify as male or female, they also impact those who don't identify with either of these labels. We need to acknowledge all forms of violence perpetrated against people on the basis of their sex, sexuality and/or gender....

12.01.2022 Do you think you have the right to repeatedly track your partner's location, phone calls or activity? Limiting someone's ability to make their own decisions or be independent is a form of gender-based violence. Alarmingly, one in five young men don't see a problem with this kind of controlling behaviour. For more insights, watch the Recognising Controlling Behaviour video: https://www.youtube.com/watch... #16DaysDeakin #16DaysofActivism #OrangeTheWorld #callitout @RespectVictoria If you or someone you know is impacted by sexual harm, or domestic or family violence, contact 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732.

10.01.2022 'Women prefer a man to be in charge of the relationship.' Wait what? Doesn't sound right, does it? Worryingly, 25% of Australians agree with this statement. Normalising control of decision making in relationships also normalises behaviours which are at the heart of intimate partner and family violence. Attitudes like this drive gender-based violence....

01.01.2022 'Men are better leaders.' 'Real boys don't cry.' Say what? When we assume or believe that someone is naturally better at or suited to something just because of their gender, we're reinforcing rigid gender roles. These attitudes limit people's capacity to thrive, both individually and in wider society. Evidence tells us that they're also a key driver of gender-based violence.... Want to learn more?
