Thanks, comrade, I didn't know about the 16 Days of Activism. There were massive protests on the 25th, I even attended one. The good news is, our current government has responded to public outcry by pushing forward laws to protect women. The bad news is, sexism and anti-feminism is growing at an alarming rate here, so the next government will probably reverse everything... I hate this place.

First time I've heard that sexism and anti-feminism were on the rise there. Sorry to hear.

The percentage of young men who think gender-related violence is not real has doubled in the last four years, it's over 20% now. Plus a similar share believe feminism is detrimental to society.
