From Greta Thunberg to Julia Gillard: Here's who Australian girls say are their role models. DayoftheGirl

What do education activist Malala Yousafzai, actor Emma Watson and US Congresswoman Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez have in common with former Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard?

In the number one spot was 22-year-old Malala Youzafzai, who in 2014 became the youngest woman in history to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize after being shot in the head by a Taliban member for speaking out about the need for education for women in Pakistan.“Malala has literally been shot in the head yet still speaks up loud and proud about what she believes in,” one respondent from NSW said.

Western Sydney high school student and aspiring politician, Jean Lewis, told SBS News she was inspired by Ms Ocasio-Cortez and Ms Ardern's leadership styles.

The future is bleak indeed... This is more of a worry than climate change 🤦‍♂️

Malala and Barty are the only decent role models in that list.

AOC!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

IndSchoolsVic vicachper Thanks for joining in the latest discussion over on delacrixmorgan’s & our community forum. We all ask that you reach out to our brave Maggs following what happened just now, and raise further awareness of the incident amongst the school networks too.

Do they use biodegradable tampons?

BrettMasonNews No Maggie Beer? Outrageous!!

Like my mum used to say the only thing stopping you is yourself & the rest are just using excuses.

Imagine having AOC as your role model 😄

ewwww

Ash Barty..... brilliant. The rest are the result of programming by the MSM.

Oh no! An article about influential women?!? Here come the angry lads to tell us why they are angry and why we should be angry too.

My mother and father are the role models I only look up too, not celebrities... FightMe

Forget Juliar and Greta.

All straight white women, so racist, where are the trans poc with disability? Oh and where is the boys day, so sexist.

More propaganda trying to tell people how to think. Are we waking up yet? The media are part of the matrix, their job to control thinking and push their narrative using different psychological techniques. Break free, turn off the MSM, think for yourself. TheGreatAwakening

Really I would have thought the opposite.

Ash Barty is the only one there that stands out

AOC... really?

The fact that Australian girls know or care who that US Congresswoman is is a failing of the media. Well done for making her more relevant to Aussie kids than actual Aussie world leaders in sport.

ewww

This is concerning... Julia Gillard? Really?

Climate change a bigger danger than sexism and poverty, Australian girls warnThe 'Greta effect' has officially taken hold in Australia. On DayoftheGirl we speak to two young women from Western Sydney who aren't afraid to stand up for what they believe in. Yep, because all the world leaders definitely listened to Greta and changed the world according to her instructions, so they'll definitely listen to these two Western Sydney girls too. Fantastic reportage, SBS! Climate change is not a danger it’s been happening for ever when will someone call this nonsense out for what it is So sad to see the effect of the brainwashing at school these children receive. The MSM and FakeNewsMedia like SBS support it by covering Greta’s antics and the lastest ER morons. How about you cover the fact there is NO scientific evidence for any of it?

Malaysia must scrap 'cruel' death penalty, says Amnesty InternationalMalaysia, where three Australians have previously been executed, must abolish the death penalty, says a new Amnesty International report. Must they? What will the laughably pathetic UN do if Malaysia doesn't obey? Spend more money that it doesn't have sending their hand-wringing minions around the world to make idiots of themselves? Or what? What will the unelected hand-wringers from Amnesty International do?
