FixedIt: How serious is she?

Posted on May 11, 2020May 11, 2020 by Jane Gilmore
Yahoo News reported a man was arrested for a “domestic violence offence” after allegedly stabbing a woman in the chest. She’s now in hospital with life threatening injuries. It’s a typical rehashing of a police media report where few details are available on the day of the attack. Also, the man has been charged, so […]... Read More

FixedIt: One man killed, one woman stalked, one man’s choice

Posted on March 16, 2020March 16, 2020 by Jane Gilmore
Channel 9 News reported on the man who stalked a woman, fired a gun into her home and killed a man, before killing himself. Oddly, not one of the main facts of the case made it into the lead on their Facebook post.  “Two men are tonight dead”? Apart from clumsy wording, how do you […]... Read More

  • The Good news, the bad news and then the statistics
    Violence in Australia has been steadily decreasing for the last 20 years. The homicide rate, for example, has dropped by more than 60 percent since 1993. Kidnapping and abductions have halved over the same time. National data on assault is more…
  • This is not a “sex scandal”
    Despite claims from certain sections of the media, last night’s Four Corners report on the toxic culture of the Canberra bubble’s is not a “sex scandal”. Labelling it as such erases the report’s disturbing revelations and frames them as a grubby…
  • ‘Shocking findings’ on domestic violence are worth questioning
    White Ribbon failed miserably in its first iteration in Australia and only recently started up again under new leadership. The name retains enormous goodwill. It is one of the few organisations that encourages men to be part of the solution to…
  • Tinder may be the facilitator, but predatory men are the threat
    Imagine a dating app that asked you to review your dates. After every encounter you’d get a request for feedback, just as you do with so many other apps. You could rate your date out of five and add a comment. There would also be a rating for how…
  • Men and women lose when gendered stereotypes inform Government policy
    Expecting either of the major political parties to ride a white horse into budget night and lay the severed head of the patriarchy at the feet of Australian women is a wildly unrealistic (albeit entertaining) fantasy. It does seem reasonable,…
  • Violence, poverty and a male dominated government
    There’s a connection between poverty and violence. Not necessarily a causal link, but certainly a correlation. Poverty makes women more vulnerable to the coercive control that so often leads to violence. It also makes leaving dangerous relationships…
  • How the media and the law have made sex and rape interchangeable words
    Last week The Sydney Morning Herald reported on a man’s sentencing for the crime of attempting to have sexual intercourse with a woman without her consent. In the headline he was a “sex attacker”. In the article what he did was a “sex attack”. The…
  • Tax cuts over stimulus: everyone loses but women lose even more
    Treasurer Josh Frydenberg says his plan to tackle Australia’s worst recession since World War II will likely be based on $158 billion in tax cuts, $10 billion on infrastructure spending, and industrial relations reform. The government also plans to…
  • So long shaving, Survivor and whirlwind romances: Melburnians on the lockdown habits they're going to ditch
    By Antoun Issa, Calla Wahlquist, Jamila Rizvi, Wendy Syfret, Jane Gilmore, Meg Watson, Jo Walker, Jack Latimore,Stephanie Convery, Osman Faruqi and Amrita Hepi After just over a month of eased restrictions, Melbourne is facing its second round of…
  • I thought I could fill out the jobkeeper form in a day. Optimism is always a mistake
    I am to blame! Not Treasury, but me. I am one of the 1,000 businesses that, according to the government, don’t know how to fill in a simple form, and are to blame for the $60bn jobkeeper error. Except, I am not. And I have the Australian Taxation…
