WOMEN’S MARCH: TRANS ACTIVISTS UPSET BECAUSE MARCH TOO FOCUSED ON FEMALE GENITALIA
Nobody would have thought to make this stuff up.
Transgender activists from the Women’s March on Washington are upset because there were too many white cis women marching.
Not only were they upset that there were too many white cis women at the march, they were upset on the emphasis given to female genitalia and the color pink.
As well, posters reading “This pussy grabs back” and “pussy power” only served to reinforce the idea that “having a vagina is essential to womanhood,” trans women said.
Transgender activists claim they don’t feel as welcome in the feminist movement as they should.
“I believe there’s a lot of inequality that has to do with genitals—that’s not something you can separate from the feminist movement,” a transgender woman said. “But I feel like I’ve tried to get involved in feminism and there’s always been a blockade there for trans women.”
The transgender activists felt that the emphasis given to “pussy grabbing” and “pussyhats” was something that excluded them in particular.
My oh my….
