I am a man. I thought her speech was extremely good. She delivered it with such force and lucidity. I think we can all find something relatable in it, even men, because she did the thing so many of us wish we could - verbally destroy someone who is trying to unjustly tear us down.

[@RNA0ROGER]

You do realise her speech was in-defence of Peter Slipper

[@sondradupree8709]

You do realise her Labor Government announced the reduction of Single Mothers Pensions two hours after this misandrist speach.

How was he unjustly tearing her down?

Would a anti misandry speech be ok with you?

This lady can really speak and get her point across . She didn't miss a beat. Very Intelligent .

[@fats3973]

THE ONLY SPEECH I THOROUGHLY ENJOYED AND RELATED TO MANY TIMES. LOVED IT, GOOD FOR HER.

As a man when I look at someone like Abbot I see a little man/boy who feels threatened by women because he still hasn’t grown up and doesn’t understand the concept of mutual respect. What a sad example of a man.

Are you a good example of anything? Is sexism and misandry ok by you?

[@brantleyfoster021]

@@thewayneflyinghigh9128 Depends if you think that Abbott was a good man? I hope not considering how he personally insulted a dying man as Health Minister named Bernie Banton. The minute the man feel's threatened by anything, he reacts like a child given that small example. It's not just that either, he also was behind the mass culling of 700 Koala's that sent environmentalist's protesting. Even if you look at that interview he did with Leigh Sales back in 2012, he admitted on air that he had not even read vital documents to render debate on. He never even did his job, he just got other's to do it for him as he spent huge tax payers dollars on alcohol. Even his own admit he will do whatever it takes to get power, his time as PM was marked by indulgence. He's pure evil personified.

NOT TRUE.

What has changed? Channel Ten are now such a poor station they are ranked #4 behind the ABC. We don't have to worry about selfish, power-hungry women as PM. The Project have lost half their viewers in a year.
