Dear Petition Supporters,

You would know that your 60,000+ strong petition was delivered to Brian Schwartz, chairman of Scentre Group, last year.

Brian has been lauded as a champion for gender equality in the workplace. He was initially driven by the desire to see his own daughters grow up in a world with equal access to opportunities to succeed and excel.

Despite this, Brian Schwartz has remained silent amidst the outcry over Honey Birdette imagery degrading women and creating an environment where our daughters (and sons) view women as sex objects in the course of grocery shopping and visits to Santa.

According to the article, "he has a weekly meeting with CEO Peter Allen - the pair confirm the meetings a year in advance. “The meeting with the CEO enables ideas to be raised sooner rather than later,” Schwartz says. “We may talk about the football on the weekend but it’s just keeping that connection and understanding what’s going on around the company and giving him the opportunity to chat about anything.”

I wonder what they say to each other about exposing our kids to porn imagery. Apart from the football, perhaps they should do what they preach about gender equality and actually reflect their hollow captions in the real world.

Thank you for your continued support and your pertinent comments. We will continue to point out this absolutely ridiculous situation in our shopping centres.

Best regards,

Kenneth Thor
