Letter From Australia (About Androgyny)

 The Last Desperate Throw of the Dice

Miranda Devine has skewered the Australian government's slurs, lies, and distortions against Tony Abbott, leader of the opposition.  She suggests that the behaviour of Julia Gillard confirms some of the worst stereotypes of women.  The antics of Gillard and her colleagues have brought disgrace and shame upon the heads of Australian females. 
WATCHING Julia Gillard desperately flail around last week in the last death throes of her government, you could wish her prime ministership had been different. But as a woman I’m embarrassed, insulted and angry that the stocks of women in power have been brought so low.
