A trans-identified male who drafted a bill declaring Minnesota a “refuge state” for the medical transitioning of minors has been awarded the title of Woman of the Year by USA Today. Leigh Finke, 41, was chosen as an honoree on the basis that he is “the first transgender legislator in the state’s House of Representatives, fighting to build a better future for trans youth.”
What I find most depressing is that this person has been elected, which means that people have knowingly voted for him to be in a position of authority. Who are these people and what on earth were they thinking?

My letter:
I am thoroughly disgusted by your selection of a man as "woman of the year" from Minnesota.
And not just any man! One who advocates relentlessly for the mutilation and sterilization of children.
This ridiculous choice is both unfathomable and unconscionable.
Please issue a retraction immediately, and select an actual woman. I am quite sure that there are some in Minnesota.
I despair.
Insanity.
I’m speechless! The shit show continues with its blatant misogyny! I have nothing more to say except wtf is a two-spirit adult???
So pathetic such an insult to women.
