While monitoring a virtual parallel event [at the U.N.] titled: “Diversity as a Driver: LGBTQI inclusion in feminist and social movements,” a UFI staff member participated in the Q&A by placing her question in the chat section. Rather than respond to Kristen’s question, the event organizers berated her and then removed her from the Zoom event, completely. Kristen’s question? “How do you define a woman?” Seems this is a fair question to ask during a conference that is centered on women’s rights – and Kristen’s expulsion was not an isolated incident. A pro-life ally from another organization had a similar experience when she drew attention to the fact that sex-selective abortion discriminates against girls. As a consequence, organizers revoked this woman’s access to all remaining CSW events.Share
