Row erupts online after Jill Biden gives transgender woman from Argentina a 'Women of Courage' award during International Women's Day ceremony

A row has erupted online after First Lady Jill Biden gave a transgender woman from Argentina a 'Women of Courage' award during an International Women's Day ceremony.

Biden yesterday presented awards to 11 recipients at the White House, one of whom was Alba Rueda, an Argentinian politician who became the first openly transgender lawmaker in Argentina to hold a senior political position in the country.

Rueda, the Special Representative on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity of Argentina's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has spent her political career fighting to end the discrimination of LGBTQ people in Argentina.

But in response to Biden presenting Rueda with the 'Women of Courage' award, social media users have accused the First Lady of 'encouraging the diminishment of women' and 'erasing women'.

Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who has been a vocal critic of President Joe Biden, tweeted: 'It's International Women's Day - a good time to remember that the Democrats can't even tell you what a woman is.'

Sanders has previously said that Biden 'is the first man to surrender his presidency to a woke mob that can't even tell you what a woman is'.

Radio host Dana Loesch, a former spokesperson for the NRA, tweeted: 'Nice of FLOTUS to encourage the diminishment of women on "international women's day". Erasing women is abusive.'

Because there aren’t enough actual women to be recognized for any award, men now have to also be recognized for them.
Who’s the misogynists’?

Real women don't matter anymore. You are all being thrown under the bus by entitled politically protected women trying to score points with other leftest. Real women are now the enemy and soon to be as hated as old straight white men.

The point is that if some dude does a good enough job of looking like a woman, there is no discrimination because nobody knows.

When they want to strut about and call attention to themselves, it is human nature to smell BS rather than consume it.

Women’s movement has been derailed by mentally ill guys in dresses.

Maybe I’ll start dressing like a woman and derail every other woke movement....

It is like how the democrats treat blacks. Blacks are ignored and abused by the democrats because no matter what blacks vote 110% for the democrats. Single woke women will vote for the democrats no matter what. Now, the current political power with the trannies so women go to the back of the bus with the blacks.

Careful, comrade, I believe the phrase ‘real women’ is hate speech! /s

Saw one little tidbit the other day discussing menopause which instead of using the word ‘women’ used ‘owners of vaginas’.

I find I’m growing tired of people looking me square in the eye and demanding that I acknowledge their absurdities as revealed truth.

Liz Cheney?
Trans?

This white house awards ‘women’ for absolutely nothing to do with promoting women at all. It’s about promoting leftism and trolling the right. It’s not truly about women at all!

And yet, not all "owners of vaginas" experience menopause. Some "owners of vaginas" are born with penises, which are then transformed into vaginas during gender affirmation surgery.

Perhaps you should say, "people assigned with vaginas at birth."

A blatant slap in the face to actual women everywhere. When are they going to wake up and realize this freakshow mis-administration couldn’t give a crap about them except their vote. Real women have to start fighting this garbage publicly and loudly. Nothing will change until they do.
