Are traditional gender roles actually the best for us? No. Not only is not every woman cut out to be a mother and homemaker, but not every man is cut out to be a traditional man.

Benazir Bhutto was the first woman leader to give birth in office, and New Zealand's Jacinda Ardern the second.

In Australia, we have had a shameful track record. Okay, we have had four female Premiers of Australian states. Carmen Lawrence in Western Australia was the first, Anna Bligh was the first female Premier to retain the role in an election and Annastacia Paluzsczuk was the first female Premier elected from Opposition. Australia's first female Prime Minister was attacked by an old school conservative and was treated abominably by the reprehensible Opposition Leader.
