Bette Midler, Elliot Page, Lynda Carter + More News

Some news items you might have missed: • People: Bette Midler says she was not intending to be ‘transphobic’ by tweeting about the erasure of women. “There was no intention of anything exclusionary or transphobic in what I said,” the Hello, Dolly! star wrote, addressing backlash from a previous tweet that some interpreted as anti-trans.

WOMEN OF THE WORLD! We are being stripped of our rights over our bodies, our lives and even of our name! They don’t call us “women” anymore; they call us “birthing people” or “menstruators”, and even “people with vaginas”! Don’t let them erase you! Every human on earth owes you!
