[10:06 to 10:39] Australian MP Nicolle Flint calls upon parliament to make it a legal offence to 'offend, insult, humiliate, and intimidate women'

SomeoneRandom007 · 2024-04-28T23:12:45+00:00

If it's an offence to 'offend, insult, humiliate, and intimidate women', what happens when a woman decides to 'offend, insult, humiliate, and intimidate' a man? If he copies her words back to her exactly... he'd be committing an offence and she wouldn't be. The 'buffet' approach to equality so beloved of feminists.

rednoids · 2024-04-29T00:23:54+00:00

Will it also be illegal to not talk or interact with women?

Dashing2026 · 2024-04-28T23:05:53+00:00

If you support a law like that, might as well explicitly state your opinion that women are weaker than men.

danielm316 · 2024-04-29T00:01:27+00:00

Australia, a country filled with dangerous creatures, and also dangerous animals.

Scarce12 · 2024-04-29T01:35:36+00:00

She's gendering "online attacks" so that things like "Are we dating the same guy?" will be ignored.

But the irony is, Brittany Higgins, Lisa Wilkinson and Channel 10 were engaging in the exact kind of "online attacks" against Ms Senator Reynolds.

Ok_Solid_5038 · 2024-04-28T23:10:16+00:00

There are consequences for elevating yourself to the level of God.

YetAnotherCommenter · 2024-04-29T00:46:11+00:00

And this bitch dares to call herself a "liberal."

There is nothing "liberal" about abridging free speech or attacking equality under the law.

Alternative-Oil-6288 · 2024-04-28T22:56:59+00:00

Poor Australian men. Such a law would be illegal in the United States, as you cannot make laws that are discriminatory against sex.

Lasttoflinch · 2024-04-29T00:46:08+00:00

Would it be an offence if only men did it, or would both men and women be possible perpetrators?

gabriel-kornilov · 2024-04-29T03:31:40+00:00

Next step in Australia: "Make it a legal offence to exist around women!".

InjuryThick2353 · 2024-04-29T03:58:21+00:00

Women infantilize politics.

They really are suited for chidlren.

DrewYetti · 2024-04-29T04:23:54+00:00

This ain’t equality, it’s about giving women special treatment while punishing men.

UnapproachableBadger · 2024-04-29T10:16:52+00:00

Utter stupidity. Illegal to offend or insult? And who decides if it's offensive? The woman? So just giving women carte blanche to imprison whichever man they like by simply deciding they were insulted? This woman should be ashamed about saying this nonsense in public.

NeoNotNeo · 2024-04-29T11:17:03+00:00

Offend, Insult, humiliate and intimidate women?

80% of women would be arrested for doing it to other women

Sir_Spectacular · 2024-04-29T20:42:37+00:00

Offending, insulting, humiliating, and intimidating are not actions, they're feelings. A person's feelings are their own responsibility. If you make it illegal for someone else to make you feel offended, you could get literally anyone arrested on a whim, all you'd need to do is justify why whatever they just did was offensive, which can be literally anything.

PeonSupremeReturns · 2024-04-29T02:04:44+00:00

My strategy at this point is to give people like that enough rope to hang themselves.

DaUnionBaws · 2024-04-30T00:12:11+00:00

The superior sex that constantly needs validation and protection. Men are insulted and intimidated all the time, where’s the legal protection for them? Also you make up 50 percent of the population, you’re not a marginalized group.

EricAllonde · 2024-04-29T12:31:31+00:00

And still, there is not one single, tiny shred of scientific evidence showing that "disrespect towards women" leads to domestic violence.

It's all a beat-up by power-hungry feminists.

Ambitious-Reach-1186 · 2024-04-29T14:20:02+00:00

Australia, where the women are more dangerous than the wildlife

p3ngwin · 2024-04-29T20:19:45+00:00

So what does she propose to do about women abusing women online then, when it's HALF of the abuse women recieve ?

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/may/26/half-of-misogynistic-tweets-sent-by-women-study-finds

and when 70% of lesbian relationships involve Domestic Violence, what then, how is a "gendered law to protect women from men" going to help ?

Thick_Lingonberry135 · 2024-04-30T03:12:33+00:00

What a self indulgent wind bag

flipsidetroll · 2024-04-29T03:34:57+00:00

There is a very easy way to completely derail this policy if by any insane chance, it becomes law. On the day that happens, every single man must declare himself a woman. And every man should submit the documents for their gender change, on the same day. The sheer volume of paperwork will bring their home affairs offices to a standstill. Documents will have to go to banks, drivers licenses depts, every single way you are identified as a man will now have to be changed. It will be chaos. And the message will be, now there isn’t a single man left to charge or falsely accuse or conscript into the army. And now they will have to protect all these women, no offending, insulting or intimidating. And they better not dare assume your gender.

I get tingles because it’s so simple and so foolproof.

AimlessFacade · 2024-04-29T12:52:40+00:00

This is how australia achieves the bizzare phenomemon of where australian men actively keep away from all women within a 5 foot radius and actively dodge or escape them due to a fear of legal retribution if a single thing goes sour.

Unreal_85 · 2024-04-28T23:12:37+00:00

That's two years ago.

espositojoe · 2024-04-29T01:27:13+00:00

But as it regards men, have at it.

Low_Breakfast3669 · 2024-04-29T04:16:07+00:00

This was weird. I listened to a few extra minutes after the above time stamp and she proceeded to decry things like the woke left and ancel culture and liberals generally.

I really don't even know what to make of her.

On one hand she wants to make it an offense (I assume this essentially means illegal and potentially jailable) to offend a woman, but then in the next breathe she is attacking leftists?

AmbitiousHornet · 2024-04-29T15:25:24+00:00

Down Under is gone down with chunder.

RockyMaiviaJnr · 2024-04-29T04:31:18+00:00

Won’t they have to define what a woman is to enact this law?

Sushlsoda · 2024-04-29T06:05:47+00:00

Woooaaaahhhhhhh That’s wayyyyyyyyy too vague

Ok-Cranberry-9558 · 2024-04-29T06:57:03+00:00

Why not just make all men wear a star of David?

KPplumbingBob · 2024-04-29T07:45:48+00:00

Ah yes, all things that are highly subjective and depend entirely on what woman feels about it. What could possibly go wrong with a law like this?

cum_dragon · 2024-04-29T08:19:31+00:00

What in the actual fuck is happening to Australia? It's turning into some kind of Orwellian nightmare

Charming_Gift7698 · 2024-04-29T11:05:23+00:00

Women get intimidated by men just existing

Current_Finding_4066 · 2024-04-29T12:23:19+00:00

Only women? Sounds fair, especially as we know women are in the lead when it comes to such actions.

africakitten · 2024-04-29T12:50:55+00:00

Surely it must be insulting to women that some believe they need all this.

It's more protection than children get.

Do the people pushing this law think that women are weaker than children?

pleasantly_plump-yum · 2024-04-29T13:34:46+00:00

what guy in their right mind would even choose to live in Australia now?

RiP_Nd_tear · 2024-04-29T13:58:33+00:00

Such laws/bills will only infantalize women, not protect them.

saito200 · 2024-04-29T13:59:15+00:00

only women? Not men? That seems super fair and just /s

Also some of these things are subjective, who is going to judge whether someone is humilated or intimidated? what constitutes an insult? These are all subjective values. Something like violence is an objective action

Do these people even think? Do they have anything inside their brains? Or are they maybe just trying to break the law by pushing garbage that will benefit them exclusively?

The New facism of our age... feminism.

Don't like what a Man say, that right straight to jail

What? They are wearing masks…?

Beerwithjimmbo · 2024-04-29T05:19:12+00:00

This was over 2 years ago and she got roasted

whathappened2cod · 2024-04-29T22:20:26+00:00

Title made me laugh.

eldred2 · 2024-04-30T04:14:20+00:00

If it's actually a bad thing, why make it gendered?

Morden013 · 2024-04-29T04:28:54+00:00

If we simply combine the list she proposed, with the gender based amendment to the law, and add the usual "it doesn't have to be physical, verbal violence is as harmful", it is a call for enslavement of men, with the support of the law.

sanitaryinspector · 2024-04-29T04:38:15+00:00

Australian women about to be unemployable

SeengignPaipes · 2024-04-29T05:43:13+00:00

Wasn’t this years ago and the testicle got laughed outta the room?.

Untimely_manners · 2024-04-29T06:30:55+00:00

She said she thought about it? If she did, then she purposely left out the word intentionally...because people can take offence to anything whether you intended it to be offensive or not.

IceCorrect · 2024-04-29T09:22:17+00:00

Of men is bigger he should be thrown to jail? If person would call women slut (which would be true), they should go to jail? If women would wear the same dress on wedding, which one should go to jail?

LifeIsLikeARock · 2024-04-29T09:55:32+00:00

Thankfully the Australian Parliament doesn’t have valid power to legislate for a specific gender in discrimination of another. They’ve had a whole thing about this but in relation to their legislational race power, which is now interpreted in a way that can only make beneficial laws (as in giving them individual rights), not taking away others’ rights and giving it to them.

I presume that even if this bill were to make it through all houses, an unlikely scenario, government would get sued on its validity.

Roddy0608 · 2024-04-29T12:05:10+00:00

Keep on offending, insulting, humiliating and intimidating men though. That's OK.

furay30 · 2024-04-29T12:14:58+00:00

This reminds me of the "1 in 4 homeless people are women" -- ah, right. I forgot, men clearly aren't people.

(Clearly) /S (just in case)

Minimum_Compote_3116 · 2024-04-29T12:21:53+00:00

Average liberal privilege woman

foxsheepgato · 2024-04-29T12:50:16+00:00

women will be gossiped about

ah yes, a typical male behavior. I just love to spill the T with my besties in the pub and the gym

omnicidial · 2024-04-29T13:42:10+00:00

It's literally impossible to offend someone else, they have to choose to be offended themselves.

Calm-Cry4094 · 2024-04-29T14:04:50+00:00

I think feminism is weird.

Somehow their opinion is so special, special laws need to be enacted to protect such opinion.

So it's okay to insult men and not women?

Why is it wrong to insult anyone? I am insulted all the time.

AlphaMassDeBeta · 2024-04-29T10:09:24+00:00

Strongest female politician.

DifficultPapaya3038 · 2024-04-29T14:18:33+00:00

Admirable__Panda · 2024-04-29T05:57:55+00:00

As much as she did a blunder here, she wasn't all bad as a person.
Specifically her reasoning behind why she doesn't support quotas.

Conscious_Ad2591 · 2024-04-29T15:44:42+00:00

hahahah this is funny i would not even care going to jail for this , the comedy is enough for me hahah autralia bros are you okey?

Prudent-Conflict-557 · 2024-04-29T07:43:55+00:00

Surely this wouldn’t be enforceable. Slander is also illegal but proving it is nearly impossible.
