A flashback to last month when Hershey included a man in its celebration of International Women’s Day and many uppity women objected. The CBC reported that the man in question continued to act like a man.

Trans activist won’t be shut up by backlash to Hershey campaign

Of course he won’t. He’s a man taking what belongs to women; why would he shut up? He gets flattered by the CBC for doing it; why would he shut up?

An Ottawa-based transgender rights advocate says she’s not going anywhere after facing a barrage of online harassment for her role in a Hershey Canada campaign for International Women’s Day.

Fae Johnstone, a 27-year-old trans woman, was one of five women featured on limited-edition chocolate bars.

Fae Johnstone, a 27-year-old man who pretends to be a woman, was the only man featured on limited-edition chocolate bars in celebration of International Women’s Day.

“The tone of this campaign is not pushing a trans agenda. It’s celebrating women and girls and all of their diversity,” Johnstone told CBC’s All In A Day Wednesday.

Women and girls and all their diversity don’t include women. Dogs in all their diversity don’t include rabbits. Birds in all their diversity don’t include snakes. Shoes in all their diversity don’t include hats. Bicycles in all their diversity don’t include cars. Diversity is one thing and being something else altogether is another.

Despite the personal attacks, Johnstone said she’s undeterred from pursuing her advocacy.

“To have young trans women and girls see these chocolate bars and to see me on them — that sends a message,” she said.

You’re damn right it does – it sends a message that women and girls don’t get to have anything of their own, that men will always find a way to take everything back, that men matter and women don’t.
