Okay, now I don't normally do political posts, I do the occasional 'On My Soapbox' but not really anything truly about politics. Personally, I am a swing voter and try to make an informed choice.
I believe people's political preference is their business - however this time I have been driven to comment, as it is driving me insane. If I see one more woman interviewed on TV telling me they are voting Labor because Julia Gillard is a woman, I think I will scream.
What the hell does her gender have to do with it?
Would you vote for a clown, I mean a real clown, not those other 'clowns' we have had - just because he or she was a clown and wore clown clothes and could juggle? It is the same in my mind.
Please, make a choice made on something other than gender. I am just so over women looking like idiots when they make these types of comments. Vote for whoever you like, or don't vote at all, but please remember - gender is not a platform, a policy or a preference. As much as I am a woman and believe a woman can do anything - it is not in my opinion a reason for a political party to be voted into power.
On a lighter note, this post is not sponsored by the Liberals, the Greens
or the Australian Sex Party!!!
Amen sister!!

ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more...what the devil has sex got to do with it? I am so over Women's Lib. It may have been good for some but a lot of bad came from it as well and seems to have produced some strange females. I want a PM whom I feel is a human being regardless of their sex, someone who appears to have real feelings for what is going on around them. Will that person please stand up....soon. I think I have spotted someone who fills the bill and only hope I am right in my choice.
