Sarah Palin Calls AOC ‘Fake Feminist’: “I’m Embarrssed For Her”
Former Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) called out Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) over her “menstruating people” comment on CNN saying she was embarrassed for the New York Congresswoman.
Sarah said: “Wow, AOC, she is really milking this, isn’t it?. She is such a fake feminist that she would bring up an issue like this and try to use it to make some kind of political point. That’s not equality, right?
“Oh, man, don’t even get me started on this. This just makes my stomach sick, what she has done. She should be embarrassed to even have tried to bring up an issue like that and make her political point.
“She is so off-base politically, but off-base even in this analogy or whatever it is that she is throwing out there. She is milking the whole female thing.
“And as a real feminist, I’m embarrassed for her. A real feminist is one who knows that they are capable and they are equal.
“They are capable of doing a lot more than AOC gives women credit for.
“Yes, we can give life to a child, and at the same time pursue education, and pursue a career, and take care of our other children, or give a child up for adoption, if we do not feel that we can take care of that child.
“She has no idea. Her worldview is this big.
“She has no idea what it is like to be a mother of a special needs child, what it’s like to be a mother of a veteran, what it is like to be the mother of a teenage daughter who finds herself in less-than-ideal circumstance, all these things that the rest of America, we do.
“We do face.
“And we’re able then to make judgments and make our decisions on those life experiences.
“She has got this much. And she is running the show?” she said.
Not just women! Trans men & non-binary people can also menstruate.

Some women also *don’t* menstruate for many reasons, including surviving cancer that required a hysterectomy.
GOP mad at this are protecting the patriarchal idea that women are most valuable as uterus holders. pic.twitter.com/BJovcw1qPa
Trans, two-spirit, and non-binary people have always existed and will always exist.
