This year on International Women’s Day, celebrated worldwide Wednesday March 8th, the White House hosted and awarded 11 “extraordinary women from around the world.” The Biden administration, represented at the event by First Lady Jill Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken, awarded the 11 “women” with the annual International Women of Courage Award. However, one award recipient, Argentinian Alba Rueda, is actually a transgender – biological man. The administration and First LADY Jill Biden, are now being slammed for giving this man an award recognizing women on International Women’s Day.

Rueda was introduced at the ceremony as a “transgender woman who was kicked out of classrooms, barred for sitting for exams, refused job opportunities, subjected to violence, and rejected by her family. But in the face of these challenges, she worked to end violence and discrimination against the LGBTQ plus community in Argentina.” Rueda, according to Fox, currently serves as Argentina’s Special Envoy for Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Trade and Worship, where he works to “ actively campaigned to change the name of the National Women’s Conference to the ‘Plurinational Conference of Women and Lesbian, Cross-Dresser, Transgender, Bisexual, Intersex and Non-Binary Persons’ to include diverse, dissident, and racialized identities.’”

There has been a vast outcry over this man getting an award meant for women, especially women who face struggles only women can face.

Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders, R-Arkansas, was among the first to mention the situation. As she tweeted, “It’s International Women’s Day – a good time to remember that Democrats can’t even tell you what a woman is.”

Though many others weighed into the award and its recipient.

Buzz Patterson, a RedState columnist, and author summed it up best, writing “Nothing screams ‘International Women of Courage Award’ like a dude.”
