After a year full of debates about gender self-determination due to the Trans Law that has recently been approved in Congress, the Mediaset España program En Boca de Todos yesterday invited a trans woman who has become popular on the Internet to the space. for defending that trans women “are not women.”
”We are not women. We consider ourselves and we feel. We think like women, but we are not biological women and we will never be,” explained Crystal Jurado under the watchful eye of Diego Losada and the collaborators. Amor Romeira, special guest for the occasion, gave her opinion and responded to these words, annoyed at having to repeat the same old speech again. ”I understand Crystal’s speech partly because she comes from a culture that is 20 years behind us (…) They are not in the same struggle as trans women that we have in Europe,” the woman began by saying. canary.
”Do you have a uterus? Do you have a vagina? Do you have mammary glands? You don’t have them. “What gender dysphoria and gender self-perception are has been completely distorted,” Jurado recriminated again before the unusual look of the former Big Brother contestant.
However, the frustration of Anabel Pantoja’s friend came from the journalist Sonia Ferrer, who launched an argument against gender self-determination and asked Amor what someone had to feel to ‘identify as a woman’ and start the path. of transition: ”What does it mean to be a woman?”.
The television collaborator responded affectedly that it seemed incredible to her to have to answer that question “at this point in life”: “Once again, the same debate as always. So many things have been achieved… and explaining now that a trans woman is a woman… I don’t know where a trans woman has said that she is biological, that she is the same woman as the other… We reduce the concept of being a woman in general to have a uterus, womb, be a mother and give life”.
After having a bad time in the Cuatro space, several users on social networks echoed the conversation and showed their support for Romeira, something that made Ferrer respond and give his opinion clearly: ”I will continue celebrating free love and condemning violence against any group in the same way that I condemn violence against women. That said, I was not questioning Amor, I have asked a question that seems pertinent to me: What is it to be a woman?”
Romeira, outraged by the situation, responded to the tweet: ”Sonia honey, I’m going to ask you a question. Are trans women WOMEN? After you answer, we will analyze your intervention today on the program.” The conflict has generated countless comments online, since it is a very controversial topic and there are two clear sides of opinion.
