Once again, what sort of editor publishes trash like Pru's? I hope Grace's generation rises up storms the battlements soon, though of course there are some young and beautiful things who looked at the Young Liberals and thought "Sign me up", so there's plenty more of this tosh to come I suspect. At least JB you're still young and beautiful.
:( sad that it's all so true. But rest assured, it's not just the menfolk keeping this in place, but also the women who keep holding the 'rules' up. The Doilies who tell you to wear a bra so people don't think you're slut. We've all got a few of them in our families or workplaces. And here, of course, bra is just a metaphor for 'all the things about you' that might cause this low level violence... like breathing.
Thanks John - a heavy subject for such a warm Friday. Less laughs but very powerful.
"I notice their guy has not gone out of his way to court her either. But what you might notice is the weird way I keep referring to Anthony Albanese as ‘their guy" - I follow Albo on FB and there is a photo of him with her. In all seriousness though the Great "Conservative" army from Mark Latham MLC to Peter Van Onselen and the Newscorpse/Sky News after dark crew should just leave Grace Tame alone. Rumor has it some of their mouth breathing followers harassed her at the Australian Open, which she left early.
If it were one of their own being harassed by the other side I wonder what their response would be? The politicization of issues which everyone should be on the same page never ceases to amaze me.
Ah, Pru, the crummiest Crumb Maiden of all. She gave the graduation speech (a self-indulgent shocker) for my good lady and her class. It is gratifying to report that we had to explain who the illustrious Prudence was, and in fact apart from we two NOBODY in the Charles Sturt health sciences class of 2006 had heard of her. Prudence herself paid them back, seemingly using a general-purpose oration that gave little away, except how Prudence's own battles might be drawn upon to inspire them as they made their way in the world. Pru then tried to steal Queanbeyan's water for Goulburn, which had run dry.
You know JB, if Pru is ever too tired from watching polo or trying to walk in the 'other half's' shoes by picking up a couple of leaves around her pool, you could ghost write for her (for a handsome fee of course).
Has Pru been hanging out with Andrew O'Keefe and his gear and hallucinating? I might have tried chowing down on "My friend the prime minister" etc, but this is just too bonkers for that.
Oh Prue, for gawd's sake, whatever in tarnation you are "wabbiting" on about; accomplished young women don't have to smile; in fact they should snarl!
I learned about Neville Chamberlain at school like you, Pru, albeit quite a few years later, but lovey, I really do think you have Nev mixed up with Anthony Eden. You could check by reading a history of those times. Yes, I know: Boring! Fear not: "The Crown" will set you right.
"Oh boy, that moustache! Talk about sexy thigh brows!..." Hahaha, Neville Chamberlain is the perfect pin-up for Dear Prudence. Thanks JB, again a different writing style from you, you're brilliant. x
And the worst thing about the AFR? Other than the paywall - which I have successfully breached - they don't have a search function (other than Search: Companies, of course).
Yes darling. I know widdle wabbits like you are out there. In this space. In my street.
Real sorry to bother you.
Hopefully you'll try really hard next time. You might *sighs* give a disapproving look and a wink to that (OMG sign me up please for that handsome) fella instead of giving a young Wabbit a "what-are-ya-gunna-do" look.
Just go back sometimes to wishing you had those darn cheesy snacks of (crispy or melt in your mouth?) goodness back.
In the meantime, thnks darl for reaching out. We're can possibly solve this pesky young wabbit problem together.
Either way, I'll die satisfied. In one part - knowing I tried everything to have the life you do.

The side eye delivered by Grace Tame at the recent Australian of the year photo-op was amazing. Worth the price of admission.

My gosh its fun to write in charactor.
I'm guessing Prue wrote another opinion piece.

How to simultaneously betray your gender and the next generation on behalf of the monied Patriachy, by Prue Wabbit.
I wondered why you wanted to see Pru's article.
Excellent hit piece.
And the worst thing about the AFR? Other than the paywall - which I have successfully breached - they don't have a search function (other than Search: Companies, of course).
Anyone have a link to Pru's tale?
Hahaha, oh man.
Yes darling. I know widdle wabbits like you are out there. In this space. In my street.

And it wasn't my fault.
