@GregB1972 woodside and the government are doing the dictating. It's good to get an education and learn as much as you can. Aboriginal culture is said to be the oldest civilized culture bringing with it, law, stories, spiritual practice etcetc. most educated Australians know and have read about womens business, they get it from their law and civilized culture. Civilized people tolerate and understand their neighbour not destroy them.
