Rape and morality in popular media

"In 2017, Australia was ranked 35th on a global index measuring gender equality, slipping from a high point of 15th in 2006. While Australia scores very highly in the area of educational attainment, there is still a lot of progress to be made in the areas of economic participation and opportunity and political empowerment."



I think Australia has largely followed other commonwealth countries as far as advances go.

Medicine is pretty evenly matched as far as workforce participation goes. Some fields are dominated by males (primarily surgical specialities), and surgical specialities are purportedly where the majority of harassment happens (in general, sexual or not).

Female nurses outnumber male nurses probably 3:1 to 2:1 at the very least.

Politically we've had a female prime minister, but she didn't sit full term. That said, no one has since John Howard.

I wouldn't have advised walking the streets at night for any of the 30 decades I've been alive. Inner city is alright because of the number of lights and people still around at that time, but in suburbs I'd definitely advocate for a car.
