Chanel Contos

I participated in round tables developing this process that needs to go across everything from education, the impact that some of the online manosphere is having on the attitude of young boys as they grow into adolescence about what's appropriate in attitudes towards women and behaviours.

And today, indeed, I met with Chanel Contos, who is doing such an extraordinary job.

This young woman, a strong advocate, talking about appropriate sex education, the Teach Us Consent campaign that is so important, aimed at young people.

indeed the work that I also met this morning with or just before question time with Bruce and Denise Morecambe who are also playing a really important role in particularly in regional Queensland but right down to regional New South Wales as well.

And in this letter, he's urging them to stop recruiting schoolboy rugby players because he has drawn a link between being recruited as a talented rugby player at school age and sexual offending.

He says that his thinking has been influenced by Chanel Contos, who's an Australian who's written about allegations of sexual offending by students at an elite school in Sydney.

And she says basically it's a cultural problem at schools like that.

And boys do things like that when they are taught to feel entitled.

Thank you very much.

We're going to show you exactly what these resources are and you're going to be shocked by one of the videos in particular.

Some of the resources you're going to say, oh, I think they're probably okay, right? But I think one of the things we, before we get to that, I think one of the things we want to unpack is just that this as a framework, this consent framework, education framework is it the right framework so you know teach us consent which is pushed by chanel contos who's an extreme leftist you know famous lines from her are um australian men are the most misogynistic in the world men need babysitters men shouldn't congregate you know her she's pals with sarah hansen young and sarah hansen's young husband ben ockwist is very closely connected with contos this is organization like this is the greens we're talking about so like far leftist socialist vision of what society is.

And yet the Albanese government is basing its digital duty of care on her, her idea of fix our feeds.

And they've given her $3.5 million to roll out this consent education in schools, primary and high schools.

And also grooming them into consent ideology when they're children and they have no capacity to say anything other than no.

Teach me no.

Teach me to say no. Don't teach me consent, you know, because Chanel Contos' Teach Us Consent, Sorry, utterly pedophilic, disgusting and inappropriate for children.

You don't teach children consent.

In Too Much, I speak with extraordinary women who dared to defy these suffocating stereotypes and forged their own path.

Chanel Contos was just 21 years old when she launched an online petition that sparked a movement and propelled her into the global spotlight.

Teach Us Consent triggered a national conversation that would lead to mandatory consent education in all Australian schools.

But the path to this massive national reform was non-traditional, to say the least.

Today, Chanel Contos opens up about the personal price of radical change and the power in being too disruptive.

Chanel, thanks for joining too much.

When your Teach Us Consent campaign went global, you were just a crazy 22 years old.

But I guess the idea would be for people to be able to, I guess, at least see those shackles or those walls so that they can make better informed decisions throughout them.

It's just musing out loud a little bit.

But I've been thinking so deeply about this for a long time and also after reading Chanel Contos' book where she talked about a group of people that she said were entitled opportunists.

And I'm I'm wondering how does that apply in a relationship and in the money relationship? What are your thoughts on that?

I think you raised a really good point that there's certainly people out there with real intentions behind their behaviours in terms of coercively controlling, financially controlling someone, and the financial control might be another contribution to the way they control this other person, not necessarily the whole thing.
