Kia ora Katrina ae ki a koe wahine toa me korero tuhi...you're a strong woman speaking truth. I once was a member of N.C. W. with roles in advocacy to write to and meet with parliamentarians and liaison with Maori Women's Welfare League to advocate ...no longer. After they in 2019 embraced deluded men I was out. A revered aunt (who certainly knew who was male ...she had 5 boys) was once President of Zonta back in the day when Zonta knew their mission to be there to highlight women's issues. Like yourself I am not willing to indulge idiocy and will happily send Mr Menno videos: 'It's a Man' etc to wilfully ignorant politicians and yesterday wore my 'Speak Up for Women Sex Matters' tshirt to a post grad philosophy seminar on 'gender and sexual orientation' to be a 'bosom billboard' but not one person said anything....I'll fight the lies till I die.

Thanks for the compliment, Juliana :-) Somehow, though, I think I might pale in comparison to the strength and determination you show. I love the expression 'bosom billboard' and will steal that - lol!

Great piece, Katrina.

I think there may be scope for setting up the World Association of Willy Councils!!!
