The embassy has organised a webinar on the topic, An Equal Future in a Covid-19 world: Champions of Change Choosing to Challenge to mark the 110th anniversary of International Women’s Day on 8th March.

Let me guess, only men who think they are women are allowed to participate and actual biological women are forbidden.

I thought the latest leftist effort is to marginalize women and pretend we don’t even exist. So, why are these women upset?
