    Women and Psychology Newsletter APS WOMEN AND PSYCHOLOGY INTEREST GROUP Volume 25 Issue 1 Winter 2013 Since the last edition of this newsletter in winter 2012 Inside the national spotlight has shone on some of the outrageous behaviour Julia Gillard encountered as Conferences and Australia’s Prime Minister. In mid-June, when composing p. 2-6 workshops the first draft of this newsletter, I was reflecting on the October 2012 speech she delivered, highlighting zero A Celebration of p.7-8 tolerance for continued misogynist behaviour towards the life of women in power and women in general. Little did I know Una Gault back then that this topic would dominate the media again p. 9-10 in the last weeks of June 2013 and prove that the issues W&P AGM & State raised last year remain firmly entrenched. Reports More specifically in relation to the Women and p. 11 Psychology Interest Group, in 2012 the long awaited 2012 Elaine Dignan Award revised APS Ethical Guidelines for psychological practice with women and girls were ratified. And sadly Una Gault, p. 12-13 Links to articles of founding member and icon of the Women and Psychology interest Interest Group, died on 30/11/2012 at the age of 86. A celebration of Una’s life and achievements was held at the Jessie Street National Women’s Library in Sydney on 15th May 2013, where for several hours, Una’s colleagues, friends and family told and listened to rousing anecdotes and moving recollections of Una's widespread influence and determination to make a difference in women’s lives.

Thank you for subscribingWe have more newslettersShow meSee ourprivacy notice Invalid Email In July of last year when Theresa May became only the second female Prime Minister in British history, much of the media coverage focused on her gender and on her reported fetish for footwear. For the Sun , she was the shoe fanatic whose childhood dream was to be a politician. Goody Two Shoes said the Mirror . Theresa’s fancy footwork gets her the job, said the Daily Star . Such attention was entirely predictable. Mrs May, like any other female politician, is predominantly defined by her sexuality. In 2015, her appearance in Parliament on Budget day threatened to overshadow the Chancellor’s statement. The "1950s called and asked for their headline back" In the Daily Mail , sketch writer Quentin Letts recorded that (note familiar use of first name): “Theresa sat in a suit so low cut she could have been taken for Sam Fox”. An accompanying picture illustrated his point. Then, in March this year the same newspaper published a front page photo colour photograph of the Prime Minister and Scottish leader Nicola Sturgeon sitting beside each other.

Women wanted action on violence; equal representation; economic independence; better working conditions; access to education at all levels; higher wages and equal pay; equal opportunities for employment; and reform of marriage and divorce laws. •••••••••••••••••••••••••• 35 Fragility&Hope-FinalText.qxp_Fragility&Hope-FinalText 2/11/2018 11:57 am Page 36 Old habits die hard. The patriarchal edifice of the late 19th century has been sandblasted and become vastly more civilised. But the ‘internal’ structural arrangements and cultural fittings that advantage men at the expense of women have not yet been satisfactorily redesigned. 36 Fragility&Hope-FinalText.qxp_Fragility&Hope-FinalText 2/11/2018 11:57 am Page 37 Destination equality! Mary Crooks Gender equality’s great promise is that it benefits all people, children, life partners, workplaces, our economy and democratic culture. This is a story of Australia’s progress on gender equality from the mid 19th century to today. There is much cause for hope in what has been achieved. But there is a fragility or brittleness attached to this scorecard, underlining our need to do much more — with renewed hope, energy and urgency. * * * She heard murmurs of a destination of great promise. Life was tough and unforgiving for her and the women around her. She yearned for a break from the drudgery, the relentless care of her large brood and the endless nights, by dim light, doing piece-work for a pittance.

  • Sex Work: a Survey of Social, Philosophical and Human Rights Issues

    Sex Work: a Survey of Social, Philosophical and Human Rights Issues

    Int. J. Green Economics, Vol. 3, No. 1, 2009 93 Sex work: a survey of social, philosophical and human rights issues Natalie Bennett 56 Walker House, London, NW1 1EP, UK E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This paper looks at the social, philosophical and human rights issues around sex work, concluding that the so-called ‘New Zealand model’ of decriminalisation and labour protection is more compatible with the fundamental human rights of sex workers and the ‘right of protection’, which is one of green economics’ key concerns, than the alternative models provided by Sweden or the USA. Keywords: prostitution; sex work; human rights; decriminalisation. Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Bennett, N. (2009) ‘Sex work: a survey of social, philosophical and human rights issues’, Int. J. Green Economics, Vol. 3, No. 1, pp.93–100. Biographical notes: Natalie Bennett is a Journalist and feminist, founder of the blog Carnival of Feminists and Editor of the Guardian Weekly newspaper. She has worked as a United Nations Consultant in Asia on women’s issues and on child labour and for the Thai government on its report on the Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women. 1 Introduction 1.1 Why? You might be surprised to find yourself opening an economics journal reading a paper on sex work – at least a paper that is not narrowly focused on the ‘economics’ of prostitution – supply, demand, prices, etc. (such research has been conducted).1 Yet sex work is undeniably an aspect of the economy, as defined both traditionally and in green economics.
