I get it's important to have women in parliament, but you cannot get rid of someone running for office based on their gender, race or whatever because that is discrimination. But by merit and the best candidate for that region, if its a man, let it be man, if it's a woman let it be a woman OKAY?
It's should be about the "best person for the job" or "the representation of identity groups" it should be who is elected by the people since this is meant to be a democracy, or is the abc against democratic values now.
This wasn't an endorsement for gender quotas in gov. It even says that it's unfortunate for female pollies that there has been more focus on their gender, than their policies.

And they say ABC is independent of political groups. How appropriate is it to post a editorial peace during an election? Btw, it should be equal opportunity not equal outcome.
There's less women in politics because less women choose to go into politics, not because we are opposing them. And setting aside a percentage for them is basically just upping the competition for men and leaving empty spots for women to fill.
It’s their choice, if a women wants to run for parliament good luck to her. And besides the parliament isn’t a jury. It doesn’t have to have a definitive percentage of sitting members of a certain race or gender. Politics isn’t about ethnicity or gender, it’s about strong policy.
How can you say that…its not a about wanting to run for parliament it’s a about how society still don’t trust woman in power. It’s disgusting! Think about that for a moment, maybe you will understand the problem
Letting women vote was one of the biggest mistakes western civilization ever made. I think we'd get where we are today eventually regardless in the west due to weak men, but it would have definitely happened a lot slower if it weren't for women votes.
All women get where they are by having men help them. It hurts because it is true. Look inside, search your feelings. Fear leads to fear, fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to the female side.

I heard an excellent show on RN today about population control which demonstrated how many excellent, sane, reasonable and rational arguments there are for limiting population growth. On the other hand there where those who preferred to call racism, racism until they went blue in the face. It is a tactic used to harness emotions and stifle any appeal to common sense. The same goes for gender equality. Do you think Hillary Clinton would have dropped any less bombs on the Middle East? Did Obama do anything but bomb the brown people in the Middle East or rein in Wall street? Does anybody in the world apart from the ABC care what Israel Falau thinks his god is going to do to homosexuals?
Because women don't vote as a block. Like every man they have the ability to make up their own mind and choose who they wish to support. There didn't need nearly 6 minutes to explain that concept did I? Just 27 words.
Would you like to be given a job based on your gender or how good you are at the job? I'm all for more woman in Parliament but seat saving for woman isnt fair
Quota I think is a terrible idea though I concede having more women in parliament would make it more representative of the people. The solution here is perhaps to encourage more women to get into it. Waters is a fantastic example.
But, women are all about feelings. Feelings should not be in politics. I remember I was against the building of the greater belt bridge in Denmark. My opposition was 100% feelings. It was paid back in record time. So, we should not make feelings a part of the debate.

Don't you think it's kind of patronising to have to hand the seats over? What about meritocracy? I'm happy to have women in government but if there so happens to not be as many women as men why is that such a problem? Women keep voting for these people.
so, 1st how is this not fair to women 2nd how is this fair to men 3rd how are women better at politics do deserve this 4th what equality do they even need. please explain to me if you can.
One only has a limited amount of time on earth so choose wisely and give it your all but there isn't enough time to be and do everything but don't be foolish enough to wreck your system with quotas that will block the best dedicated focused individual from serving the nation & it's people as a whole!
Okay then, so let's have more women into the trades as well, like women brick layers and motor mechanics. Wait that's right, they want to cherry pick the high paying jobs. This is just feminism gone awry.
It all about power. Women activist have no problem where some professions are dominated by women because those are considered as low paid powerless job. They want equality in CEO post, big corporation head of government, Ministers post etc. And they want to reached the top of the summit and weild power without struggling for it through quotas. And to think that they will work for the empowerment of women who really needs is a subjective argument put forward by those activist who consider all women as Saint (they are individual human being with vice and virtues) . At the end of the day it all about selfish gain for themselves in the name of so called gender equality and women empowerment
Society wouldn't be so messed up if women stayed home where they belong and raised their own children instead of throwing them off at a daycare center. Selfish witches. I'm a woman saying this.
The vast majority of these comments are terribly ignorant. 'Clearly not enough of them choose to go into politics' - well, yes, but there's a reason for that. There is a standard that has been set and that needs to change. Why should leadership be associated with solely men? You can argue that I'm being PC or a SJW, but it's the truth.
The blokes have stuffed up politics in Australia. A female Treasurer A female PM There are too many male politicians right up themselves. Fed Up with the Ties and suits. Australia so backward.
I want to run but I can not spend that much time away from my kids yet. Maybe we need to move into the 21st century and allow people to video in and be apart of the process and vote in parliament via secure video link? If I could do that from WA I would already be on the ballot. More women in parliament better work life balance for all.
Sorry but the only weomen who deserve to be in parliment are the ones who worked hard to get their on thier own merits... no woman should just be allowed into these positions just because they are soley just a woman... equality should be equal meaning they should not just be given the job because their are less weomen in the job.... also side note no mum should be breast feeding at work and especially on a live or recorded network... keep that private...
This video's argument is that the current merit system lets too many unqualified men in so just choose more women candidates next time to see if that fixes the problem.
Basically you are saying preference should be given to women who don't have the appeal or ability to win over enough votes at the party branch level. Most party branches have fewer than 300 members who vote for a candidate in each electorate. At an absolute minimum someone who wants to stand for parliament and run the country should be able to sufficiently influence a majority amongst their own branch members. The party membership in Australia isn't a men's only club so quit your whinging. Branch stack and sign up 300 women members in each electoral across the country and then there'd be no men in parliament. How little effort, exertion, credibility and merit should one provide for a $200,000 a year job running the country. People living in glass houses shouldn't throw stones as after taking the technologists positions out of the ABC you don't have any gender equality either.
We had to stop my nan from insisting that the girls clean up last Christmas, for some reason reason alot of people think things are fair that laws no longer oppress
Shame on Australian politics. Perhaps there are not enough women in politics but seeing the continuing sexist trend, it must be discouraging for many women. It must be so hard to be a woman in politics. If a woman is right for the job, let her have a go. I'm a man and a father of 3 daughters - what examples and tones are these ignorant and unrespectful men setting for Australia. If they can behave like that in parliament, imagine them behind public eyes, how can we trust them to make fair policies for Australia if they unashamedly behave like primitive cave men. Seriously, grow up spoiled little boys and be real men!
Would you be happy knowing that your daughters only got a position because of gender quotas? Or do you teach them to take advantage of a system that has been rigged in their favour. I hope you are raising them better than that.
You little, virtue signalling boy. Who the hell is not _'letting women have a go'?_ Do you suppose there is a big hairy bouncer at the politics and sociology classes in universities keeping them out and then the same happening at the Parliament House? Do you suppose the same reason applies to women not being well represented in the STEM fields? Did it ever occur to you to ask women themselves why they don't go into politics (or STEM fields, for that matter)? Could it be that they simply have different interests and priorities to men? It looks like all that oestrogen in your household has made your balls shrivel and die, mate.
Rwanda "leading the way" with women the majority in parliament, $2,444 GDP per capita, 158th on the Human Development Index, and much higher corruption and income inequality than Australia.

Because men like you prevents women from joining in the first place. Just read up couple law suits on oil field jobs, male managers pass female candidates with more job experiences for male candidate with less experience and that why you assholes are to blame.
Your bias is the reason why women can’t join the army in all branches until now. Men like you always prevent this from happen and then turn around and say it’s women who doesn’t show up in those manly fields.
I hope more old boys job will get break into and misogyny shit like you will just go eat your own words.
It’s not a hard job but it’s a job where biased men want to be gatekeeper for other men. It took decades of feminist group lobbying for the arm forces to finally open all fields of service to women. No thanks to men like you.
As a feminist I can’t wait to see quota for arm services that would means more women will be in general position, and I bet you will be the first man to cry foul for letter women joining the higher career paths.
because there spoiled.
Okay 100% agreed, but if you want more relevance, make a similar docu with tradies. Equality should be in every workforce
The weomen don't want equality in the trade jobs... they want the ceo roles but are not fit for the job...😂
And they say ABC is independent of political groups. How appropriate is it to post a editorial peace during an election? Btw, it should be equal opportunity not equal outcome.
There's less women in politics because less women choose to go into politics, not because we are opposing them. And setting aside a percentage for them is basically just upping the competition for men and leaving empty spots for women to fill.
It’s not about gender it’s who is good at the job
It’s their choice, if a women wants to run for parliament good luck to her.
And besides the parliament isn’t a jury. It doesn’t have to have a definitive percentage of sitting members of a certain race or gender. Politics isn’t about ethnicity or gender, it’s about strong policy.
I think the question is more about why more women don't go into politics than anything.
How can you say that…its not a about wanting to run for parliament it’s a about how society still don’t trust woman in power. It’s disgusting! Think about that for a moment, maybe you will understand the problem
Quotas are flat out discrimination
Letting women vote was one of the biggest mistakes western civilization ever made. I think we'd get where we are today eventually regardless in the west due to weak men, but it would have definitely happened a lot slower if it weren't for women votes.
and maybe by that time tech would have made up for it.
The problem is with them, the lack of them, the standard of them
All women get where they are by having men help them. It hurts because it is true. Look inside, search your feelings. Fear leads to fear, fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to the female side.
@lesley leslie women's rights are only upheld by the threat of violence by men, so don't even try. Biology is fact.
do women want equality or revenge at this point.
Why aren't there more women as mechanic's, IT, soilders, management, pilots....because it's a hard job!!
Are you trying to say women cant work hard?
@@thetrashmaster1352 Can they?
@@thetrashmaster1352 in those fields usually Ya.
The republicans just had a wave of women so
how about people are there on their MERIT not their Gender.
imagine confusing equality with equity LUL
You mean equality of opportunity with equality of outcome, I think.
Imagine getting your opinion on equity from a conservative american youtuber. Equity is providing basic needs like free healthcare, schools and roads. Has literally nothing to do with this.
Equity is the quality of being fair and reasonable in a way that gives equal treatment to everyone. - oxford dictionary.
Women got the right to vote in Ireland in 1922, not 1928. Prior to that, in 1918, a limited number of women had the right.
God. Does the ABC every report on anything important?
Yeah, but you only click on the short videos so you can comment on minor issues.
How left can you get?
I heard an excellent show on RN today about population control which demonstrated how many excellent, sane, reasonable and rational arguments there are for limiting population growth. On the other hand there where those who preferred to call racism, racism until they went blue in the face. It is a tactic used to harness emotions and stifle any appeal to common sense. The same goes for gender equality. Do you think Hillary Clinton would have dropped any less bombs on the Middle East? Did Obama do anything but bomb the brown people in the Middle East or rein in Wall street? Does anybody in the world apart from the ABC care what Israel Falau thinks his god is going to do to homosexuals?
Nice to meet you friend.. You sound like a nice person.. Can we get to know each other better!
@@andremoreau3413 Probably not, Sweetie. You know how it is with the internet. Take good care and have a wonderful day.
Because women don't vote as a block. Like every man they have the ability to make up their own mind and choose who they wish to support. There didn't need nearly 6 minutes to explain that concept did I? Just 27 words.
Work for it instead of wanting it given
Look what happened when Labor elected a prime minister based on her gender a few years ago. That went well didn't it?
Why does that even matter? It should be the best person for the job
What diffrence does it make what gender they are? What can women bring to parliment that men can't? The ones we have had so far seem pretty piss weak.
Would you like to be given a job based on your gender or how good you are at the job? I'm all for more woman in Parliament but seat saving for woman isnt fair
Quota I think is a terrible idea though I concede having more women in parliament would make it more representative of the people. The solution here is perhaps to encourage more women to get into it. Waters is a fantastic example.
But, women are all about feelings. Feelings should not be in politics. I remember I was against the building of the greater belt bridge in Denmark. My opposition was 100% feelings. It was paid back in record time. So, we should not make feelings a part of the debate.
Why am I funding this?
This video is the most delirious absurd thing I've seen today disregarding a lot of actual facts
I love the comments... claiming that treating people equally is a leftist agenda... by that logic right wingers are not treating people equally... full circle. This report can't be considered biased/pushing an agenda, because they are stating facts and statistics. You can oppose an opinion but you can't fight facts.
Women got the right to vote in 1918
Quotas are awful and should be abolished
Women are not cut out for politics and choose other careers. Simple as that.
We had a female prime minister 6 years ago that was more competent than all the prime ministers that came after her...
@@thetrashmaster1352 She served only three years and then resigned...after she saw the light.
@@japh2005 Actually she was removed as leader of the Labor Party.
@@hugejackedman7423 While she was prime minister wages increased, our GDP was raised, taxes were lowered and national security was at the highest it's been since the 90's. The only one of those Turnbull could accomplish was a higher GDP.
The Cuddly Male Chauvinist Pig why? Would you mind elaborating on that?
Your right, ABC...
PETA CREDLIN FOR PM!
She was a failure when she led Abbotts time at top job.
Why would anyone want her?
Thank you from a native Canadian woman
Don't you think it's kind of patronising to have to hand the seats over? What about meritocracy? I'm happy to have women in government but if there so happens to not be as many women as men why is that such a problem? Women keep voting for these people.
Here when Tu Le got axed
The graphic at 00:43 is wrong. Ireland gave women over 21 the vote in 1922.
Introduce a quoter and that poor women that earns the 51% spot does not get a job.
That's not how quotas work, at least 50% of the labor party will be women. it could be up to 100% if that many women want to.
so, 1st how is this not fair to women 2nd how is this fair to men 3rd how are women better at politics do deserve this 4th what equality do they even need. please explain to me if you can.
One only has a limited amount of time on earth so choose wisely and give it your all but there isn't enough time to be and do everything but don't be foolish enough to wreck your system with quotas that will block the best dedicated focused individual from serving the nation & it's people as a whole!
Okay then, so let's have more women into the trades as well, like women brick layers and motor mechanics. Wait that's right, they want to cherry pick the high paying jobs. This is just feminism gone awry.
Women out of politics.
It has, just not in the backward USA… (c.20% women in government, never had a female head of state or government)
so.
It all about power. Women activist have no problem where some professions are dominated by women because those are considered as low paid powerless job.
They want equality in CEO post, big corporation head of government, Ministers post etc. And they want to reached the top of the summit and weild power without struggling for it through quotas.
And to think that they will work for the empowerment of women who really needs is a subjective argument put forward by those activist who consider all women as Saint (they are individual human being with vice and virtues) . At the end of the day it all about selfish gain for themselves in the name of so called gender equality and women empowerment
Well said :)
Society wouldn't be so messed up if women stayed home where they belong and raised their own children instead of throwing them off at a daycare center. Selfish witches. I'm a woman saying this.
Why not have a wave of good politicians regardless of if they are male or female?
What countries was I supposed to expect to be paving the way in female representation in Government?
Does anyone have the balls to give them a real answer or are you going to dance around the obvious.
Thank god. We d be history
I can't believe it can be this good
Until I see women working on roofs in the summertime, on the deadliest catch and working in coal mines I will consider them equal.
@Claudia Vlahović 😉
Are you a social worker/teacher or something close? Curiosity.
The vast majority of these comments are terribly ignorant. 'Clearly not enough of them choose to go into politics' - well, yes, but there's a reason for that. There is a standard that has been set and that needs to change. Why should leadership be associated with solely men? You can argue that I'm being PC or a SJW, but it's the truth.
Thanks you all Canadian woman I love you all 🥰🥰🥰💗
What a load of rubbish. Women have as much opportunity and more then any other time in history. You wanna get into Parliament then work for it!
The blokes have stuffed up politics in Australia.
A female Treasurer
A female PM
There are too many male politicians right up themselves.
Fed Up with the Ties and suits.
Australia so backward.
Answer is short time yes but long time no
I want to run but I can not spend that much time away from my kids yet. Maybe we need to move into the 21st century and allow people to video in and be apart of the process and vote in parliament via secure video link? If I could do that from WA I would already be on the ballot. More women in parliament better work life balance for all.
It’s literally 1/5 in the US
How do we know that the men in Parliament are not transgenders ?
Pretty low standard of reporting there abc. Illogical and politically correct.
Sorry but the only weomen who deserve to be in parliment are the ones who worked hard to get their on thier own merits... no woman should just be allowed into these positions just because they are soley just a woman... equality should be equal meaning they should not just be given the job because their are less weomen in the job.... also side note no mum should be breast feeding at work and especially on a live or recorded network... keep that private...
why cant we get the right person for the job instead of muh need to elect women
This video's argument is that the current merit system lets too many unqualified men in so just choose more women candidates next time to see if that fixes the problem.
Only have to look at the LNP men to know that most of them aren’t picked on merit!
Hello pretty lady 💋❤️
Basically you are saying preference should be given to women who don't have the appeal or ability to win over enough votes at the party branch level. Most party branches have fewer than 300 members who vote for a candidate in each electorate. At an absolute minimum someone who wants to stand for parliament and run the country should be able to sufficiently influence a majority amongst their own branch members. The party membership in Australia isn't a men's only club so quit your whinging. Branch stack and sign up 300 women members in each electoral across the country and then there'd be no men in parliament. How little effort, exertion, credibility and merit should one provide for a $200,000 a year job running the country. People living in glass houses shouldn't throw stones as after taking the technologists positions out of the ABC you don't have any gender equality either.
We had to stop my nan from insisting that the girls clean up last Christmas, for some reason reason alot of people think things are fair that laws no longer oppress
Shame on Australian politics. Perhaps there are not enough women in politics but seeing the continuing sexist trend, it must be discouraging for many women. It must be so hard to be a woman in politics. If a woman is right for the job, let her have a go. I'm a man and a father of 3 daughters - what examples and tones are these ignorant and unrespectful men setting for Australia. If they can behave like that in parliament, imagine them behind public eyes, how can we trust them to make fair policies for Australia if they unashamedly behave like primitive cave men. Seriously, grow up spoiled little boys and be real men!
Would you be happy knowing that your daughters only got a position because of gender quotas? Or do you teach them to take advantage of a system that has been rigged in their favour.
I hope you are raising them better than that.
@Aqua Fyre My money's on Gonad.
You little, virtue signalling boy. Who the hell is not _'letting women have a go'?_ Do you suppose there is a big hairy bouncer at the politics and sociology classes in universities keeping them out and then the same happening at the Parliament House? Do you suppose the same reason applies to women not being well represented in the STEM fields?
Did it ever occur to you to ask women themselves why they don't go into politics (or STEM fields, for that matter)? Could it be that they simply have different interests and priorities to men? It looks like all that oestrogen in your household has made your balls shrivel and die, mate.
To all of you happy fellas who replied to my comment... Advance Australia Fair, hey!
Because they are at home bossing on their kids and their fathers about!
stop
Why so much pale things in that picture were is the aboriginal people why none of them in the picture
Rwanda "leading the way" with women the majority in parliament, $2,444 GDP per capita, 158th on the Human Development Index, and much higher corruption and income inequality than Australia.
I remember Jack Nicholson saying, ' When I think of a woman, I first think of a man then I take away the brain......'
Quickly look older! For what no thanks.
There will be more women in politics for sure, its the best way to get more privilages
Haven't we done away with the definition of the word woman? Using that word is Marginalizing to men who identify as woman. Please stop.
Plz cover greens
