Have you considered how you will vote in the upcoming plebiscite?
Some people have difficulty talking respectfully about the issue of same sex marriage, or have unsubstantiated ideas about what this change might mean for them and the larger community. I encourage you to speak to your friends and neighbours about your attitudes and questions about same sex marriage in an open-minded and respectful way to help promote peaceful and inclusive communities. The Australian Psychological Society has developed information sheets containing helpful tips for communicating in respectful and constructive ways about marriage equality and related issues such as gender diversity, sexual orientation, homophobia, equality and justice. Please use the button below for a link to this information. If you have been affected by disrespectful, discriminatory and hurtful campaign messages during this voting period and are seeking a safe and supportive counselling service, I would be happy to hear from you.
