When consent law looks for excuses, not proof
from The AAWAA Women’s Advocate Hosted by Women Women
In this episode, Emma talks with Lucy about what NSWWAA saw inside DCJ’s stakeholder roundtable on the sexual consent reforms review. They walk through the structural gap between the domestic‑abuse laws and the consent provisions, why the current ‘reasonable steps’ test lets men wear women down, and how the fraud provision is at risk of being narrowed in ways that ignore serious deception about who has access to women’s bodies. __ Donate If you wish to donate to AAWAA you can do so by making a direct deposit or bank transfer to: Account name: Affiliation of Australian Women’s Advocacy Alliances Account number: 04201471 BSB: 325-185 __ Disclosure statement Voices in this podcast are AI-generated clones of real, named AAWAA members, created and used with their informed consent to help amplify women's words and stories.
