It is disgusting generalisation that women only care about what clothes their female leaders wear. Does this show the LNP attitude towards women in general?
The Liberal National Party's former state secretary says women need to change their attitudes if they want to be taken seriously in politics.
Michael O'Dwyer made the comments during a Queensland University of Technology seminar about campaign strategies used during the state election campaign, which gave his party a landslide win.
Mr O'Dwyer said the LNP had mainly male candidates because they were chosen on merit rather than a gender quota system.
He said women were often their own worst enemy when it came to politics because they were more concerned about what shoes leaders wore than what their policies and issues were.
"So something, I'm sorry ladies, needs to be done from your perspective to try to build women up to look and sound like leaders and talk about the attributes of a female being a leader rather than talking about their appearance," he told the crowd about 100 people.
