Australia is going downhill, but it's still one of the only countries where making a slightly edgy joke won't have people looking at you like you're a mass murderer.
Who is the target audience of something like this, and who decided it was necessary? I feel like an ad campaign isn't an effective way to stimulate self-reflection or personal growth, not just for gender issues, but for any topic. Nobody's going to see an ad and re-evaluate their life.
Anon come on quit being such a shitlord

yea people were literally calling each other "cunt" as a term of endearment when I was there. which is super weird considering the government's big brother witchhunt policies on pornography. I was almost arrested returning home from aussieland because they forcefully confiscated my camera and found all the explicit lewds of my then-gf and I on the SD card (she's 20, but basically looks 12). it was a very uncomfortable few hours while they had to contact her and her mother and bring then down with her IDs and explain the situation and everything.
