Woke Fashion Mag Mocked For Honoring 9 Men As ‘Women Of The Year’

Glamour UK magazine just named nine men as recipients of its annual “Women of the Year” Awards.

Transgender honorees Munroe Bergdorf, Maxine Heron, Taira, Munya, Bel Priestly, Dani St James, Ceval Omar, Mya Mehmi, and Shon Faye were all photographed for the magazine cover, standing together wearing “Protect the Dolls” t-shirts. “Dolls” refers to transgender-identifying males, and the shirts have been sold to raise money for a hotline providing support to transgender-identifying people in the United States and Canada.

Many of the reactions on social media were negative.

9 men have been chosen as Glamour’s Women of the Year.

“9 men have been chosen as Glamour’s Women of the Year,” conservative activist Billboard Chris wrote on X. “I heard on this site that woke is dead, but I’m not sure how anyone could ever think that considering K-12 education and universities are dominated by radicals pushing queer theory and every other civilization-destroying ideology.”

“Woke will never die until power in the education system is taken from the Left,” he added.

“I can’t believe this is real,” Libs of TikTok wrote.

“So much for the women’s rights movement! Men are now stealing what it means to be a woman. Where are the so-called feminists?!” another reply said.

“I grew up in an era when mainstream women’s magazines told girls they needed to be thinner and prettier,” author J.K. Rowling wrote. “Now mainstream women’s magazines tell girls that men are better women than they are.”

Glamour UK included an article featuring interviews with the “dolls” where they expanded on the issue of transgender rights. 

“Now, trans people – and especially trans women – are facing a committed attempt from anti-trans pressure groups and right-wing politicians to make exclusionary policy the default across British public life including toilets, changing rooms, leisure facilities, workplaces, hospital wards and crisis support services. The intention is clear: to drive us out of public life to repress, then deny our existence,” the accompanying article says.

Bergdorf complained that trans-identifying people are facing “segregation laws” and “an inability to participate in public life.”

When the interviewer asked Omar what “protect the dolls” meant in practice, he replied, “I think it should, first and foremost, be ‘pay the dolls’ because there’s no protection like having stability and having money to secure yourself with housing and hormones and all these things. So, ‘paying the dolls’, I think, is very important, even when you think of protecting the dolls.”

This is not the first time men have been honored as women. In 2023, the U.K.-based outlet Attitude Magazine named trans activist Dylan Mulvaney as its Woman of the Year. The same thing happened in 2022 when influencer Linn da Quebrada became Glamour Brazil’s “Woman of the Year.”
