IT AMAZED me how thousands of women both in America and here in Australia marched for women's rights and upset at President Trump's "locker room talk” (which most men are guilty of) and yet where are the women protesting the rights of women from Syria, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Afghanistan and many other parts of the world where females are victims of a systematic, brutal and unrelenting subjugation?

As the Herald Sun newspaper quoted: "These women are intellectually and morally bankrupt that ignore the plight of genuinely oppressed girls and women to throw a gargantuan public tantrum because their preferred candidate, Hillary Clinton, lost an election.”

Melbourne's feminists didn't bother marching to protest against the growing problem of female genital mutilation, despite a report this month that girls as young as five months are subjected to the barbaric procedure.

Where are the women marching to protest against the many child brides that Muslim men continue to marry? Where are the women marching to protest the absolute oppression of Muslim women?

Like it or not, girls, Mr Trump is now the US President so get over it and grow up and accept the democratic election decision.
