If you missed Sunrise this morning you missed a firey debate ...
** Stop Press: The debate is on! The Australian Sex Party's Fiona Patten will go up against Family First's Wendy Francis Monday, 2 August, 7.15am on Sunrise.
This is the debate Australians really want to see. Two politicians with differing views, debating real issues**
The phone poll showed Family First winning the debate 51% to 49% but the online sentiment for social media discussion has put the Australian Sex Party firmly in the lead. Fiona puts forward a great argument and believes passionately in the rights of all adults to choose and for everyone to be truly treated equally ... but what sets her aside from other politicians who claim to believe the same things is her frankness and lack of shame when talking about sex and its related issues. She isn't afraid to inject herself and her opinions into her arguments, even if they aren't popular.
Reading through the online conversation today it is hard not to get goose bumps at what I think we are witnessing - a true change in the balance of power, moving away from the control of religion and into a society where most people believe that everyone should have equal rights.
Maybe I'm reading too much into a single day ... but sometimes, that's all it takes to change the world. For someone to have a dream ... and to dare to sell someone about it.
