The organizers said that they did not plan the event as a protest, but instead as a response to “rhetoric of the past election cycle.” They do not even describe their non-confrontational demonstration as anti-Trump. The official website states that the march “will send a bold message to our new government on their first day in office, and to the world that women’s rights are human rights.” Their language is very timid and insubstantial, with no mention of patriarchy, female liberation, or the fact that men are the oppressors of women. Let alone naming the misogynist who was just inaugurated as head of “our new government”!
