I am never going to forget when people decided to reward Bruce woman of the year over Malala Yousafzai. She fought for girls' right to go to school in Pakistan, and was shot in the face by the taliban. She survived and when she healed, she continued to fight.

It still angers me to this day.

Renovating your wardrobe, getting a new haircut and being responsible of vehicular manslaughter are way braver than fighting for girls's rights to education and almost getting killed for it.

"Yes but did Malala look pretty?"

If I'm not mistaken, a Fields medal had gone to a woman for the very first time not too long before Jenner won woman of the year. That wasn't impressive enough either, apparently.

Imagine how us Pakistanis felt when we found out...

I remember being annoyed about that. I recall commenting to my husband that every woman on the planet had apparently somehow been out-womanned by someone who hadn't even been a woman for a year.

It's a travesty that they slighted Malala. And also half the population of the planet.

People unironically hold the position that TiMs are more woman than women, because they have to work for it or something.

Well it is true that for a lot of people, the measure of a woman is how much effort you put into the gender performance. More evidence of how cancerous the trans movement is to women's liberation.

Yousafzai did not want to get shot in the head. Jenner ordered his surgeon to cut his body to insert silicone in different bits. Either they were bribed or whoever wanted to look more woke thought getting plastic surgery and claiming to be in the wrong body is better than countering a socially harmful system which has deadly consequence.

Men are better women than women, apparently.
