As far as I know there is no similar fundamental disparity in the biological make up of men of various races, but if you would like to illustrate to me the clearly-documented differences in chemical, hormonal and anatomical characteristics between Whites and Aboriginal people then feel free. Literally loving freebooter posted:Nothing in the Constitution but the High Court has ruled that we have an implied right to freedom of speech based on the norms of the countries our constitution is based on, which has always struck me as a hilarious Australian "she'll be right" attitude towards a fundamental human freedom.
