LESBIANISM FOR THE ELDERLY?

 

Relationships Australia, described as Australia's leading counselling agency, has recommended that because of men's shorter lifespans, lonely elderly women should   become lesbians.   Spokesman Jack Carney, encouraged older women to explore lesbian relationships "which were seen as more nurturing and emotionally supportive." 

Relationships Australia is funded by State and Federal governments.  Write to Treasurer Peter Costello and ask that Relationships Australia be defunded and the money be given to  men's health projects  to improve their lifespan, e.g. give  funds to  the new  prostate cancer research unit at the Epworth Hospital.
