Where do you draw the line?

When it comes to relationships, sometimes there’s a fine line between what’s ok and what’s not. What crosses the line for one person might be perfectly ok for another. And while sometimes the line is crystal clear, other times it’s a bit blurred. It all comes down to respect. Respect for others, and understanding of what crossing the line means to them. And respect for yourself, so you can be clear about where you draw the line.

The Line campaign was launched by the Hon Tanya Plibersek MP, Minister for The Status of Women, and leading Aussie musicians at the Annual Song Summit in Sydney.
