  1. ​ @cungzjohnjohn122 Tell me a society that didn't practice slavery 3000 years ago? Saint Patrick was enslaved. He spoke out that slaves should be fed and given shelter from the elements. God takes care of souls, why should he intervene with slavery laws, that's for humans to decide.

  2. ​ @ZaydDepaor  And yet they did not treat girls from their own religion this way, did they ?

  3. I moved rurally and now the government wants immigrants for the regions. We were sent one such family. They were fortunately miserable. We had six Christian churches but no mosques. We drink beer in pubs. And worst of all we only speak English. What were they thinking as the filled in an Australian rural visa? As soon as the covid border opened they dissappeared.

  6.  @anotherfreediver3639  That's great. I wanted to study history at university, but the smaller places didn't offer it because they said it didn't have any job opportunities.

  7. Babysitting 5 -12 yo after school, I see a generation like no other in my lifetime. Parents have zero control over children being transitioned. So all the girls have long hair always full of ribbons, whilst boys look like they joined the army in 1950. They never touch a toy or play a game that does not stereotypically fit their sex. Twelve year old girls will fuss over baby dolls all day long just like six year olds, and boys only play rough and tumble games. The older kids get the more they realise what depends on it. Future feminists might find it very hard to find recruits.

  8. I married young and delayed university until my kids were in primary school. I told my daughters to do the same. I was a grandmother by my mid forties. Since the 1970s in Australia the back of lecture halls were the reserve of nursing mothers. There needs to be a change in people's thinking.

  13. In my Australian state there are a lot of engendered bathrooms. They were built before this nonsense. Some seem to date to the 1960s. But they are bathrooms not cubicles. They have solid doors and walls, a toilet, a sink, and often a babies change table. I often think adopting this idea would be one way of keeping women safe.

  14.  @janemayor9210  I'm glad you have no regrets. But you are sadly a statistical minority. And what is more of a character building experience than raising children? As you say they become your major focus. I made very different decisions. I married young and had my children 19-25. I went to university when the youngest started school, about the age of 30. There were tons of women my age and older. My husband and I have travelled extensively in our 30s and 40s. Our daughters have adopted my strategy, and I now have six school aged grandkids and we are all planning a month of travel later this year. One of my daughters, with her husband and kids is currently on holiday in Japan. I have no regrets either.

  15.  @borderlands6606  It's like the fall of Rome when the Romans stopped having children, as economic migrants took over the city. But rurally things continued. I live in rural Australia and most people, even those in their twenties, thirties and forties, have 2-6 kids. This includes the well educated, such as the GPs. But most are working class living in three bedroom houses. Not uneducated or welfare class, but trained trades people earning $80-100,000.

  16.  @cynthiajohnson9412  I think it's gone well beyond that. As I explain above, my future was stolen before I was old enough to go to school.

  17. My husband's uncle came out in the 60s, and my husband's family started applying in the 1970s. Eventually the uncle sponsored them guaranteed them, committing to employ and house them in 1981. Like a convict my husband wasn't allowed to finish school and instead he was forced to do an apprenticeship he hated. But he does love Australia and has no regrets. How's the US? I always found their health system a bit scary.

  19. 100% correct. I've been saying that in Australia for years. The major parties have the same policies and the small parties are controlled opposition to give the illusion of choice

  24.  @mariaobeirne514  I see. I'm sorry. I moved across the continent of Australia when it became unsafe for unaccompanied women to shop. Recently a grandmother was stabbed in a shopping centre carpark. I regret I didn't move while my mother was alive because I have no memories of her being here, I imagine her living in a retirement flat on the beach nearby. Godbless you and your mum.

  26.  @nathandurant2825  I agree. Here the link was even more obvious. It all began with the Same Sex Marriage Postal Referendum, a few years ago. The "No" campaign warned that it was a slippery slope towards the sexualisation and transitioning of children. But they were bashed and deplatformed. It was not a constitutional referendum done at the ballot station, being postal and on a subject that didn't concern most people, it became a matter of who could get their hands on the most ballot papers. Religious people were promised exemption along with schools. But even conservatives crossed the floor to vote against it, so it never happened. So little Catholic private schools were parents last resort. But all of a sudden every mother (and they are mothers ) who wants the glamour and attention of having a four year old child who is gender fluid suddenly decided their child needs a strict RC education. So even these schools are becoming a worry for parents as they have no legal standing, only the church. I would go further and bring up feminism, which has entirely destroyed society and the family. And their sexual morality is dreadful as well. To really have a decent society women need to get locked in the kitchen and gays need to be locked in the closet. In my country I can date everything that set the stage to destroy morality to 1973-75. Sorry for the lengthy post, I did warn it was beer time 😁

  27. ​ @angelmessenger8240 I feel exactly the same. And I did when I was young too. Even in primary school we all got changed in the toilets. Not where other girls can watch.

  28. In my Australian state most public toilets are unisex. This predates this nonsense. I think the reasoning was more like say a man takes his daughter to the park and she needs to go to the toilet. If it's a unisex toilet the father can inspect there is no one lurking and no syringes or other hazards, before his daughter uses it. He couldn't do this if they are separated by sex. In some toilets separated by sex men don't have access to change tables for babies either. These unisex toilets are rooms with solid walls and doors not cubicles. And they ussually have a toilet, a hand sink and often a babies change table. If gyms and schools really wanted to deal with this problem they could do so in this way. The fact that they don't show their is evil at play.

  29. I don't know. In Australia toilet cleaners lost their job if they didn't get 💉. Seemed more important than competence

  30.  @charlesmartel4769  Isn't your name the French guy who got rid of them in the 9th century? My little Australian town has been fighting back. Make sure your schools are Christian, and keep your churches and pubs full. We had one islamic family come. They left.

  31.  @Macheako  That's an interesting thought. Government schools are on the nose at the moment. The sexualisation of children, gender fluidity, CRT etc. Private Christian schools are preferred even if you are poor. Recently I met a woman who had given her ex husband primary custody of her eldest because he could afford her school fees. Homeschooling is the other alternative, should a parent who homeschools receive more child support?

  32. We live in societies where pregnancy terminations are legal and performed for any reason or no reason. Sanctity of life is long gone. Euthanasia is the inevitable conclusion of socialised health care

  43. Hello from across the pond in Oz. I'm probably older, but I was a stay at home mum. In the 1980s they introduced a payment to married women to stay home to raise their own children. But inflation has destroyed it. $20 a week barely buys bread and butter these days. Apparently the government says women prefer subsidised daycare. As I see it the elites benifited immensely from feminism. It tripled the tax base, mum, dad and the babysitter. It doubled the cost of housing and the rich have real estate portfolios. And it reduced wages without decreasing consumerism. By the 90s they'd dragged every mother out to work. And then the realised they could replicate it every year with immigration.

  46. In Australia I have heard of two cases of a man arrested, one jailed for 28 days, for reading a Bible. I stopped attending my local Anglican Church when they asked me to please stop privately reading the King James Bible as it was offensive to the LGBT community???

  47. But you rejected Christianity in large numbers. Your churches are often empty. And your schools are nolonger Christian. You left a vacuum. And vacuums get filled. I say this from someone in a country with similar problems. All the average person can do at this stage is go to church, and insist it is respected in schools. Start plugging the gaps and vacuums. Make Christianity the faith your politicians fear to offend.

  49. You mention Australian border control. This is smoke and mirrors. We too are expecting a million immigrants this year, onto a host population of 25 million. Just because there is little illegal immigration, does nothing to decrease numbers. If anything the tighter the border is kept, the higher the numbers go. This is totally bipartisan and it doesn't matter who you vote for. The whole legal/ilegal argument is just to avoid sounding racist. I assure you if ethnically diverse people with no skills and unable to speak English arrive in your country, does it really matter whether they came with or without the permission of the government. The vast majority of people don't want either, in large numbers. Nor is it an accident that every anglosphere country is facing replacement level immigration at the exact same time. It's planned or it would not be happening in three continents.
