In addition, the member of the national Cabinet added to her publication a meme that is usually used to express amazement or surprise, adding in relation to that image: “Meanwhile, the lesbians watching Pichetto say that we are not women.” In this regard, in the comments there were those who questioned Mazzina for using precisely that childish meme in the gender debate with Pichetto:
What had Pichetto said?
The statements of the former senator of the PJ and former candidate for vice president of Mauricio Macri in the 2019 elections were in an interview with Jonatan Viale, in La Nación+. There Pichetto alluded to Mazzina pointing out that “the The Ministry of Women is in the hands of a girl who is lesbian, it could have put a woman”. That phrase had followed other statements by the head of the AGN, in which he had stressed that he believes “in individual freedom and the right to happiness.”
Pichetto was referring to Mazzina when asked by Viale in reference to the silent role that fulfilled the portfolio of Women and feminism in general around the horrific ordeal experienced by pike dupuy in La Pampa. how do you know, The baby’s mother, Magdalena Espósito Valenti and her partner Abigaíl Páez were sentenced this Thursday to life imprisonment, and they will participate even taking the boy to meetings of the movement feminist Finally the plot of torture, beatings and even sexual abuse to which the little boy was subjected, before being beaten to death in a case of savagery that is hard to even imagine, and before which most feminist sectors chose silence.
After these statements, and when the issue escalated on the networks last night, Pichetto defended himself via Twitter. “Given the misrepresentation of my statements in a television program, I want to clarify that my intention was to denounce that the Ministry of Women did not repudiate the murder of Lucio Dupuy because the sexual orientation of the minister coincided with those of the perpetrators of the crime”brandished in a first message.
Under that tweet, he added: “I am in favor of the exercise of freedom by each person regarding their decisions. It goes without saying that throughout my political career and mainly in the Senate, I voted in favor of all the comparisons of rights that concern said personal freedom”.
Lastly, the Auditor General of the Nation shared his speech when he voted for the equal marriage law, 13 years ago. “To these ends I enclose my closing speech on voting for marriage equality on the Senate floor, when we signed it into law in 2010,” Pichetto wrote alongside the link to the YouTube video.
Already this Saturday, Mazzina’s response arrived, and opinions multiplied around that debate on social networks, with opinions on each side of the crack, in this case referring to gender issues.
