The former president of the Community of Madrid Esperanza Aguirre does not see machismo in the words of the former vice president of the government Alfonso Guerra, who yesterday said about the second vice president of the Government, Yolanda Díaz, that “he must have given her time between one hair salon and another” to make fun of the criticism that the leader of Sumar had also poured out on Felipe González for attacking the amnesty demanded by the Catalan independentists to give their support to the investiture of Pedro Sánchez.
“I don’t consider this sexist,” Aguirre admitted in an interview on the Cafè d’Idees program on 2 and Ràdio 4. “A little joke, I think that’s what she wanted to do,” added the former president, who has limited machismo. to “attack women and not believe in women’s equality before the law.”
Given the RAE’s definition of machismo read by the presenter Gemma Nierga – “an attitude of someone who despises traits or behaviors considered typically feminine” – the former Madrid president has indicated that “he (Guerra) will surely go to the hairdresser.” “This is like Mr. Rubiales, who puts it into everything so that we don’t talk about Puigdemont or the regime change we are making in Spain,” she concluded.
Guerra’s words yesterday created a lot of indignation in the ranks of the left and were responded forcefully even by the socialist deputy and former first vice president Carmen Calvo.
