🇩🇰 Denmark’s Prime Minister & her ministers got kicked out from a women’s day event by pro-Palestinian activists who chanted “Genocide is not feminism”.
Mette Frederiksen has been a staunch supporter of Israel. #Denmark supplies vital parts to #Israel’s F-35 warplanes bombing #Gaza.
On October 10, the Danish PM, Mette Frederiksen, was asked by a journalist if she would lay flowers for the civilian Palestinian victims, just as she laid flowers in front of the Zionist occupation embassy in Hellerup.
The Prime Minister answered the question by saying angrily:
"Israel has the right to defend itself, and that will mean that victims will fall. It bears no comparison, and the fact that a Danish journalist asks the question is deeply worrying for me, I would like to say, and a display of ignorance regarding history.”
The Prime Minister said this while the whole world is witnessing how Gaza's schools, hospitals, ambulances, refugee camps and residential areas are being bombed.
Describing the genocide of Gaza's population as "self-defense" is an explicit legitimization of the Zionists' massacres and siege of the Gaza Strip.
If women’s bodies belong to their father until marriage, and a wedding marks the transfer of that property to the groom, then when do women’s bodies ever belong to themselves?
If we are not considered in control of our bodies, how are we to control our fates and our minds? Let me set the record straight here and now: Women are not made whole by men. Women are made whole the moment they enter this world.
If society would accept that women, and women only, own their bodies, then perhaps they could understand that when a woman speaks, her words have weight. She does not need them to be approved or conveyed by a amn. Men do not know better than us what is appropriate
Happy International Women's Day to all the women of Tumblr. You're all my sisters. No, you don't get a choice in the matter and mum said it's my turn to choose what's on TV.
I haven't been posting a lot this week because I've been a bit sick, but I can't just let International Women's Day pass without congratulating y'all! I hope you had a wonderful day!
