At a book-signing in Wellington, New Zealand today pioneering feminist Germaine Greer was 'glitter-bombed' by an LGBT rights group.
New Zealand group The Queer Avengers showered Greer in glitter to protest her 'transphobic feminism'.
'Transphobic feminism is so 20th Century,' Stacey of the Queer Avengers stated on their website. 'It wasn't okay then and it's not okay now. Women's liberation must mean the right to refuse imposed gender roles, to fight for diverse gender expression.'
