Glamour magazine set to name Caitlyn Jenner ‘ Woman of the Year ”… and face major criticism
Glamour magazine is expected to
announce it ’ s controversial intention to
name transgender Caitlyn Jenner “ Woman
of the Year ” along with actress Reese
Witherspoon, on November 3.
Criticisms are already piling up from real
women who find the choice of Jenner
demeaning. First, out of all the real
women in the world , could Glamour not
find one worthy of the title of Woman of
the Year without needing to fish in the
male pool of boys dressing as girls?
Others wonder what Jenner has done in
the past year —other than get a makeover
—that qualifies him as a model for
achieving woman around the world ?
Writer Laura Meyers compares Glamour ’s
choice with the woman who carried home
the award last year , Lupita Nyong’ o:
You know who won Woman of the
Year last year ? Lupita Nyong ’o .
Not only does Lupita have boobs like
Caitlyn , but this woman was born in
Mexico , raised in Kenya, attended
college in the United States ,
graduated with a Bachelor ’ s degree in
film and theater studies , and recently
just won an Academy Award for Best
Supporting Actress, receiving a
standing ovation at the ceremony for
her performance . That’ s what she did
for womanhood . As a woman, that’ s
a hell of lot more inspiring than
Caitlyn ’ s transformation .
