Milwaukee Pride removes Miriam Ben-Shalom as Grand Marshal For TERF views

http://planettransgender.com/milwaukee-pride-removes-miriam-ben-shalom-as-grand-marshal-for-terf-views/

Planet Transgender/Added by Amy Walker on June 10, 2016.

"A leading lesbian activist Miriam Ben-Shalom, was originally invited to serve as grand marshall for the upcoming Milwaukee Pride Parade, but has had the invitation rescinded after even organisers became aware of her vocal opposition to transgender rights.

Despite having a history of fighting for gay rights, including making history as the first gay military service member to be reinstated after having been discharged for being gay, as well as having twice chained herself to the White House fence to protest 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' rules, Ben-Shalom has expressed criticism of the transgender community, having claimed that transgender women are not 'real' women and a threat in bathrooms."
