Compelling read by Madison Griffiths at @Crikey on how AI's 'sycophantic' design - built to agree with users rather than challenge - can create consumer risks which we are beginning to see 🔗

When Louisa* arrived at the Family Law Court to fight for the custody of her daughter, the last thing she expected was for her choice to terminate two pregnancies decades earlier to be raised in the hearings.

A recent change to the Family Law Act may still fall short of protecting women from being cross-examined about their sexual health history.

My latest reporting about something particularly heinous.
When Louisa* was fighting for custody of her daughter in the Family Law Court, she says says she was questioned at length about her abortion history, asking if she believed that she had “made the right choice”.

“Women on the frontline quickly become specialists in a pandemonium of violent behaviour. They have sufficient insight, from repeated accounts, to detect it in small details.” https://t.co/PMaJGae2MO

Professionals on the frontline of domestic violence report a heightened awareness of potential dangers in their personal lives, a workplace hazard known as ‘vicarious trauma’.

Every line of this love letter by NSW Premier @ChrisMinnsMP is a confession, a glorification, a celebration of a genocidal apartheid settler colony soaked in Palestinian blood for over 100 years. I sincerely believe it will be evidence one day when all who suppprted and lent

Madison Griffiths: “#Essure relied upon thickening and scarring of connective tissue – otherwise referred to as “fibrosis”. Two small metal coils were placed into each fallopian tube, carving and eroding the tissue, and creating an internal wound.” https://t.co/k08Qx7P2U0

Madison Griffiths on medical misogyny: “For friends with endometriosis and premenstrual dysphoric disorder, it would sometimes take years to acquire a diagnosis, given such pain is deemed common and manageable, the intramural decor of any woman’s body.” https://t.co/VvPSfxmeVi

I had the privilege of sitting down with many of Bayer’s complainants to get to the heart of a medical misogyny that is alive and well.

Do you work in the family violence/ domestic violence sector? I’m writing an article, and am looking to speak with a handful of women who date men about how they navigate dating while working in such close proximity to gendered violence. Shoot me a message if this is you!

According to recent reports, pregnant women have been transferred from prison to hospital to give birth and return days later to no medical attention or after-care. Madison Griffiths on how some women are denied access to basic care:

Expectant and new mothers in prisons across Australia are not being provided with adequate healthcare or services due to poor implementation of state government policies.

It was an honour to be trusted with the task of reporting on such an important topic.
Australia has no national prison healthcare standard to cover the more than 3168 women currently incarcerated across the country. These shortcomings can be especially dangerous if they need to navigate significant reproductive health problems.

“About 18 months ago, Monique*, a 27-year-old woman based in Melbourne’s inner north, attempted to terminate a pregnancy…” @madrgriffiths on the difficulty many women face in accessing an abortion:
thesaturdaypaper.com.au
Despite abortion being legal in every state, that right is increasingly contested, and there is still no standard path to secure a termination in Australia’s public health system.
