I think and say „Well done Julia Gillard!“. More politicians should have the guts to speak up against sexism. There are so many situations when women can’t react and talk to a greater public like Gillard. And there should be more men who stop provoking women or should rethink their thinking about sexism. I know this is a huge potential of discussion. I actually would like to see more (german) female politicians who stand more to womens rights than they are acting now. And sometimes have the power to react like Gillard.
