Fully supports women’s rights

The i-word is the clue – by “women’s rights” she means “men’s rights.”

The Kingdom of the Netherlands fully supports inclusive women’s rights movements around the world. The effects of COVID-19, the pandemic, are felt by all of us. But women and girls are as always disproportionately affected. It’s a shadow pandemic, and it worries me deeply.

It’s good to see a government minister worrying about women.

That’s why today I’m delighted to share this stage

…with a man.

That’s a bit of a bump.

with someone who deeply inspires me, Nikkie de Jager.

Who is that? A trans woman whose claim to fame is giving tutorials on makeup.

Thanks for worrying about women.

    We fully support women’s rights, except where those rights may exclude men.

    The minister has the eyebrows of a disney-villain.

    It’s men who are disproportionately affected by Covid-19, though no doubt she’s counting the trans women as women.
