Lynda Carter Urges People To "Focus On The Real War On Women" And Leave Trans Women Alone
Beauty pageant winner and actress Lynda Carter is using her Twitter to speak out in defense of trans women. You may know her for her role as Wonder Woman in the 1970s, but she's using her platform now to share her political voice.
The conversation about women's rights has been expanded to include the presence of trans women. Many celebrities, politicians, and influencers have spoken up about their view on whether trans women should be lumped into the conversation about women's rights. On the Fourth of July, Bette Midler tweeted something unexpected: "We are being stripped of our rights over our bodies, our lives and even of our name!" she wrote. "They don’t call us 'women' anymore; they call us 'birthing people' or 'menstruators', and even 'people with vaginas'! Don’t let them erase you! Every human on earth owes you!"
