During a LGBTQ Pride event held at the White House and hosted by President Joe Biden, a group of transgender activists caused quite a stir by baring their chests in a topless display. The incident was captured on video and shared on TikTok by transgender model Rose Montoya. The viral video showed Montoya and two other transgender activists dancing in front of the camera, proudly showing their naked chests. Montoya, who identifies as a woman despite being assigned male at birth, covered the nipples of her prosthetic breasts, while the other two activists, who were assigned female at birth but identify as men, displayed their mastectomy scars.
In the video, Montoya can be heard asking, “Are we topless at the White House?” This moment came shortly after Montoya had the opportunity to shake hands with President Biden and express her gratitude for his support of LGBTQ Pride. The video quickly gained attention online, sparking intense reactions from viewers. Additionally, the Biden administration faced criticism for allegedly violating U.S. flag codes by displaying a Pride flag alongside the American flag at the White House.
During the Pride event, President Biden made a commitment to fighting against legislation in various states that aims to ban gender-affirming surgeries for minors and prevent transgender athletes from participating in women’s sports. Biden emphasized the ongoing struggle for LGBTQ rights, stating, “When a person can be married in the morning and thrown out of a restaurant for being gay in the afternoon, something is still very wrong in America.”
This situation has generated much discussion and debate. We would love to hear your thoughts in the comments section.
