Dawson, Madge, "Education of women in Australia", Convergence January 01, 1969, Vol. 2. Issue 2. p.11. 00108146

"Education of women in Australia" to summarize is an article providing us knowledge about the segregation towards women in Australia. In this country women have been treated unfairly for decades. For example, not receiving equal pay, and not being allowed to obtain the same jobs as men. Overtime women have worked to earn jobs that are not just "working in the house" and taking care of their family. There is jobs that few have that are high official jobs but they still do not earn equal pay even though their job means more. Hopefully as time goes on women are able to receive the same treatment as men do.

In this text woman were described as innocent beings. Women were highlighted to find themselves and struggled trying to be known for something other than their significant other. Women had to go against all the negative aspects and find a way to make their name known. Some did not have enough money to be able to build and education for themselves. We were also given knowledge about how women’s pay is less than men and the different majors that women would go into compared to the man. The opportunities that men were given to allow them to be successful and be able to live flexibly was taught to us.

The interview with Raewyn Connell and Mary Lou Rasmussen and Christina Gowlett the main idea was the women’s movements and gender issues. Madge Dawson was described in this text as a “wonderful person” although said that she was forgotten about. Women’s Liberation was talked about and how the sex role theory brought attention to universities and mass media. Women’s Liberation was described as being against sex roles obviously and encouraged women to be seen as who they are not just the stereotypical version as they were made out to be.
