Right on target! I am one of those women and I’m so pissed off right now I can’t see straight. As an American Truck Driver for 18 years I have fought every single moment of the day to be better than any man out here on the road because I had to. And even after all these years they still behave the same way.

They have cussed me out, told me to go home and take care of my grandkids, they have called me a dyke (I’m not I’m a married woman to an amazing man) they’ve also said the only reason I am out here is to find a husband. Obviously not true either. But this is what women have to endure in male dominated blue collar industries.

Pardon my French but I bust my arse every single day to bring food to the American people. I do this through snow storms most wouldn’t go out into, ice storms, 50MPH winds and dangerous drivers both big truck and 4 wheelers.

I don’t do this for recognition I do this because I’m good at it. I’m one of the best drivers on the road, I’ve never had an accident and I’m always early to deliver. I am my brothers keeper by protecting the other (unsafe) drivers on the road around me.

The fact that these people can put on a wig and women’s clothing or take harmful chemicals for a year and compete with us in sports or positions that should go to women and be recognized as woman of the year pisses me off and I’m not alone! Nevertheless it should anger ever woman in the world. Not just those competing in male dominated industries.

When they’re called on their lies they become violent and beat on us, literally. Look at Riley. Imagine men beating up a woman being celebrated by our current administration. The reason, because we speak out on the clear unfairness of allowing a male swimmer with the exact same time as a female swimmer win the metal because they wanted a media event with him as the winner.

Yes we are pissed off. The difference is we’re not violent we’re smart. But just wait, we’re only getting started.

The devil and the left (pardon the redundancy) is using this lost soul to put a happy face on a lie, from the pit of Hell. I can't see an up-side to any company furthering this gender lie by championing this guy other than an improved ESG score, another scheme from the pit of Hell.
