Senator Beatriz Sánchez (FA) criticized her libertarian counterpart Vanessa Kaiser for her recent comments about the Ministry of Women. “I do not agree (with the Ministry of Women); there should be one for men,” said Johannes Kaiser’s sister, sparking controversy. The ruling legislator went on to say that “we have a world of hypocrisy based on a victimhood that is repugnant, where because a person is a victim of something, they cannot be guilty of anything.
” “That is to say, if I am a victim for being a woman of men, then in front of a man I am always good, as the gender perspective says here, as if we did not have enough false accusations today to know how women whose malice knows no bounds,” she added. In an interview with Radio Infinita, Sánchez responded to these words, stating that “Senator Kaiser is a senator who always seeks provocation; she is waiting for a response to her provocations, and yesterday we were focused on something else, we were listening to the Minister of Women. ” “I think saying that phrase is very strong, asking why there is no Ministry of Men, which always disregards what the position of women means today.
And I say this very responsibly; it is quite flat-earth,” she emphasized. The Frente Amplio parliamentarian argued that “when we talk about the existence of a Ministry of Women, it is because there are femicide statistics, there are statistics on violence that today is classified as macho violence, because there is a position where women earn on average 22. 7% less for the same work, because structurally we have that diminished position within society; I believe there is no need to prove why there is a Ministry of Women.
” “Why do we have quotas, why do we fight for an institutional apparatus that has to push for a more equal situation? And regarding the provocations, I think it is interesting to bring that back to the table if someone forgets,” she concluded.
