  1. Yes it's all about education. These boys need to be taught manners and how to not be disgraceful people. Boys with poor behavior like this is much too prevalent all around Australia. It is such a big pity. It's a good thing that the school names were mentioned in this video, hopefully they act and start change in their own school and in others. It will be a positive thing to see. Females should not have to deal with this throughout their schooling experience or beyond, when they are developing, trying to learn and working, just because there has been a lack of education for men around how to be a person of decency. Men young and old need to find other ways of bonding with each other other than discussing women.

  2. This really needed to be addressed, it's ridiculous the amount of sexism that comes out of some students in these selective schools. Its really time for some change. I mean if this behaviour is the same that it was ten years ago, its clearly a signal that its time for some change.

  3. Women also do the same thing just discreetly. Just look at social media you will see a lot of examples. Nowadays I just laugh at these type of women trying to preach their bullshit morality when they are also like that themselves.

  4. This was an important issue. As a boy who has grown up in Melbourne and has been part of the selective school environment it’s easy to dismiss this as simple a case of boys will be boys. But it’s not, as somone who has seen those group chats and seen the effects it has on women, I can stand up and say it’s important that Maria has voiced these concerns. It’s not only about this one group chat but the misogyny and the dysmorphia that women face due to the nature of toxic masculinity . I think people who think this is a call for attention need to look in the mirror and really think hard and long. This is not a call for attention it is a call to action. It doesn’t matter that women may or may not do the same thing. What matters is, the fact that it hasn’t caused huge gender disparity and mass depression in men but it has in women. We have to understand and accept that this was a mistake and that we will work towards fixing it. Not defending the problem by saying girls do the same thing. People need to grow up.

  5. bro we just chilling, 90% of us don't even talk to girls at meblourne high school :moyai: I mean yeah go for it, call the school but you don't have to blame the entire school culture and stuff like… that's just slander bro calm down

  6. LOL. Is this what you think people care about Channel 7, when you're not spreading pointless panic and fear about 'COVID' it's lecturing men about how 'sexist' we are, take a hike already.

  7. Two sides to the coin, the young kids are simply horsing around and acknowledging that she is a hottie but didn't really think about the forum used.
    To my mind this is no different from how girls talk about guys so the problem with this is only the forum used.
    It sounds more like a plastic bubble mentality except that the forum used was public but where is the homophobic/trans thing coming from?

  8. I'm not disregarding the fact that she wasn't treated respectfully, but does she have to get the whole school involved? I go to Melbourne High, and there is no such tolerance to sexism. I don't like how she was verbally abused, but I also hate that she is getting innocent people involved and ruining the schools good reputation.

  9. Just because you didn't appreciate some comments being said in a group chat, you should have just left the chat or blocked them like a normal person, doesn't give you the ok to vilify men and a sexual gaze Ms. Universe.

  10. How did this make news? Who made the call to 7 news?. When she pulls in a complete different demographic
.transgender & non-binary was the icing on the cake! This is all utter BS! These type of non stories really boils my piss 😡
