“Women can be anything they want to be,” my Grandmother told me when I was just a little girl, and it was quite a statement back in the 70’s. ANYTHING meant there was no limit. I could become an astronaut or a fireman; I could play soccer for a living or be a famous mountain climber, perhaps even lead a nation.
I never knew too much about Australian politics, that changed when I started blogging. Blogging made my world smaller, so it seems. All of a sudden I had friends in Australia and politics was a subject, were they all became very “talkative” in their blogs. I could read between the lines that most of them had foam around their mouth and smoke coming out of their ears, when they talked about Prime mister Tony Abbott. The few Australian curse words that I learned, will come in handy if I will ever visit Australia.
