The WA women's interest minister has described supporters of a "neomasculinist" group that advocates "legal rape" as cowards and Neanderthals.
Liza Harvey, who is also the state's police minister, warned anyone considering attending a planned Return of Kings Perth event at the weekend would be monitored closely by authorities.
"Anybody that advocates committing a criminal offence like that is obviously going to be of interest to police," Ms harvey told 6PR.
