Subject: Message for Pru Goward regarding her speech to the National Press Club

Dear Ms. Goward,

Your generalisations about the distribution of home duties does a gross injustice to the many Australian men who are dedicated to their jobs and devoted to their families. "Personal time" - I don't know what your talking about. Is this the time I spend in the shower getting ready for work in the morning? Or are you referring to the 40 minutes I have all to myself taking the bus back and forth to work? I hope you're not counting the 6-8 hours I spend in bed every night - because we have a restless 3 year old and I can't remember the last time we had an uninterrupted night's sleep.

Regards,

Dan Aher
