Hillary Clinton looked 'uneasy' during disagreement with daughter Chelsea on transgender identity

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton does not agree with her daughter Chelsea Clinton on the issue of transgender identity.

The two disagreed over whether or not someone with a beard and a penis can identify as a woman during a recent interview with the the Sunday Times of London.

Chelsea Clinton answered in the affirmative, saying that "yes," a person with male genitalia and facial hair can identify as a female. The former presidential candidate, however, looked "uneasy," according to journalist Decca Aitkenhead.

“Errr," the elder Clinton responded. "I’m just learning about this. It’s a very big generational discussion, because this is not something I grew up with or ever saw. It’s going to take a lot more time and effort to understand what it means to be defining yourself differently.”

The two Clintons also appeared to clash in regard to the debate over whether or not children should be permitted to play on sports teams that match their gender identity.

While Chelsea Clinton affirmed her support, Hillary Clinton commented, "I think you’ve got to be sensitive to how difficult this is. There are women who’d say [to a trans woman], ‘You know what, you’ve never had the kind of life experiences that I’ve had. So I respect who you are, but don’t tell me you’re the same as me.’ I hear that conversation all the time.”

Later on, Aitkenhead brought up that many women of Hillary Clinton's generation do not feel comfortable with biological males being allowed to use the same bathroom as them.

While Clinton said, "I would say that, absolutely," her daughter shot a "furious glare" at the journalist.

Hillary came up when a man going into a women’s bathroom was considered sexual harassment and could keep you off the Supreme Court. Poof! Gone.

Hillary is a lesbian and lesbians don’t like transgenders.

Good luck to Chelsea as she starts her own political career. It’s nice to see that she isn’t trying to cash in on her father’s name. She’s using Clinton instead,

This is what the libs get for trying to pander to conflicting groups. Good luck, libs, getting all those squabbling groups to unite.

She didn’t know what the correct current political answer is.

That’s what it reflects, because of course she’s so pandering she would have jumped on the pro-tranny bandwagon in a split second if she thought she’d benefit.

The stress of being unable to have someone Arkancided must have been a new feeling for Hillary.

I think a 12th grader could out-debate her.
