It was a statement of solidarity among women worldwide, a necessary reminder of the dignity, respect and equality owed women everywhere and the need, still, to battle homophobia and the ills of patriarchy wherever is it found. Strong and invincible, women are not about to let their voices be suppressed — especially by a president with a long history of degrading women. With more than two million strong, criticizing the women’s marches won’t do President Donald Trump any good. Marching in the streets of Washington, Seattle, London or Toronto won’t change that fact or change the Trump agenda. Geoff Fridd, TorontoI am glad that on just the second day of the Trump presidency women are marching in large numbers in Washington, D.C. and across the country to protest against Donald Trump, who has been so demeaning and critical of women, and to support women’s rights and issues.
