My guest today is Rachael Wong, CEO of Women's Forum Australia and an Adjunct Lecturer in the School of Law at the University of Notre Dame Australia. We spoke about a whole host of legal issues of concern to Australian feminists right now: self-ID, surrogacy, prostitution, pornography, and more. We also spoke about why Australia – and New Zealand even more so – seems to be so much more extreme on progressive issues than other parts of the Anglosphere, and the extent to which it is the law, rather than culture, that is driving that.
