Chimamanda Adichie Says Trans-women Are Not Women, And It Is Causing Controversy (Watch Video)

In an interview with Channel 4,award winning writter, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie said that it is difficult to equate the experience of trans-women with that of women.
According to Chimamanda, this is because a man who switched gender after being accorded the privileges the world grants to men, cannot be said to have the same experience as that of a woman who has lived without those privileges.
“It’s about our experiences. It’s not about how we wear our hair, it’s not about having a penis or a vagina, it’s about the way the world treats us,” Chimamanda said, referring to “the whole problem of gender in the world”.
Her statement is correctly getting mixed reactions..read and watch video below;
