This is Biden's nominee for Assistant Health Secretary of Health & Human Services, refusing to answer a very simple question about whether minors can consent to genital mutilation surgery:

I hope that link works. Horrifying.

Every time Candace Owens hits my personal echo-chamber, it's because she's blaming all feminists for the advocacy of the transactivists. Last time when she was relating how awful her experience of a communal gender-neutral toilet had been, and guess what, it was all the feminists' fault.

And of course her female followers were cheering her on.

Candace Owens is a Black woman who has the right to her opinions due to her lived experience and to express herself freely.

Yes. That is all factually correct.

I find the lefts attempt to attribute her opinions to pandering both racist and infantalising.

She said:

"There is no society that can survive without strong men. The East knows this. In the west, the steady feminization of our men at the same time that Marxism is being taught to our children is not a coincidence.
It is an outright attack.

Bring back manly men."

This is nonsense pandering to the beliefs of incels.

Her tweet is still standing, so nobody has restricted her freedom to express this thought. However, it is definitely not feminism and it is neither interesting nor intelligent.

Candace was on fire on Tucker last night

Tucker Carlson is also either deeply stupid or prepared to say anything for money.

As far as I am aware Candace has never called herself a feminist and if she likes a manly man that's her right.
RE: Tucker I will give props where due as the light needs to be shone on this issue. He was the first mainstream news program to have Kara Dansky of WOLF on his show and has given many radical feminists a platform to speak on this issue unlike NBC, CNN, CBS etc.

Absolutely. We can all agree she isn't a feminist and is not trying to protect women's rights.

To own the libs, not because he cares about equality. Give him props for having a very successful TV show, but you have really misunderstood what he is selling if you think he cares about women's rights.

Is Tucker doing it to own the libs? Maybe, but I have heard him talk about having daughters and he never thought about this issue until he knew it could possibly affect them. A lot of the "dads" on the right are now against this as it will affect their daughters. Does it matter? Not really as long as they call their Senators and ask them to vote against the Equality Act. The people that were traditionally meant to fight for women instead legislated away womanhood after midnight by voting to pass the Equality Act in the House. The left won't compromise so let the 34 million Republicans who watched Trump speak at CPAC make their representatives stand up for at least women being recognised as women. While we are busy arguing about the righteousness of who's speaking Women's rights are being dismantled.
