RT @JaneQuaife: When my daughter died we had a few people try and claim her. Mostly silly young girls who wanted the glamour of having a dead best friend. A crazed fan of her cousin who made a ridiculous ‘tribute’ video. I cannot imagine how awful ...

RT @polblonde: Author of Misogynies here. Misogyny is hatred of women based on our sex. Amendment 87B to the Domestic Violence bill extends the definition to ‘hostility based on sex or gender’. This is nonsense. An amendment that muddies the ...
