Rose McGowan Slams Caitlyn Jenner’s Woman of the Year Award Acceptance Speech

Rose McGowan was not a fan of Caitlyn Jenner’s Woman of the Year acceptance speech. The Charmed actress, 42, slammed the former Olympian for stating at Glamour’s ceremony on Monday, Nov. 9, that the “hardest part about being a woman is figuring out what to wear.”

“Caitlyn Jenner you do not understand what being a woman is about at all. You want to be a woman and stand with us- well learn us. We are more than deciding what to wear. We are more than the stereotypes foisted upon us by people like you. You’re a woman now? Well f—king learn that we have had a VERY different experience than your life of male privilege,” McGowan wrote in a Facebook post on Monday, Nov. 16.
She continued: “Woman of the year? No, not until you wake up and join the fight. Being a woman comes with a lot of baggage. The weight of unequal history. You’d do well to learn it. You’d do well to wake up. Woman of the year? Not by along f—king shot.”
McGowan also posted several graphic memes that featured Jenner’s quote. Some of the photos included a woman getting raped, being followed home late at night, and a woman in the hospital after giving birth. One that particularly stood out was O.J. Simpson’s late wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, covered in bruises. (Jenner’s ex-wife, Kris Jenner, was best friends with the model-actress.)
