“The opposition barely disguises its misogyny and machismo in relation to Dilma” points out Jean Wyllys

“None of the opposition men booed Cunha”

+Go Italy! Italian Senate begins discussing gay civil unions today

the federal deputy Jean Wyllys criticized, on his Facebook page, the attitude taken by some parliamentarians against the president Dilma Rousseff during her participation in the opening of the Legislative proceedings yesterday (2).

The PT member was booed at times, when defending the return of the CPMF and praise the social advances promoted in recent years by the government.

The deputy published a message of support for Dilma and said that none of these politicians dared to boo the president of the House, Eduardo Cunha (PMDB-RJ), formally denounced for crimes of corruption and money laundering.

For him, the fact of having a woman in charge of the country still bothers the most conservative. "The right-wing opposition barely disguises its misogyny, machismo and lack of education," he said. Wyllys stated that he sees the politicians' attitude as an ineffective way of getting attention.

The solemn opening session of the work of the National Congress in 2016 recently ended with the delivery of the message made by President Dilma.

Upon arrival, she established her position: she coldly greeted the president of the Chamber, Eduardo Cunha, while she was affectionate with the president of the Senate, Renan Calheiros, and the president of the STF, minister Ricardo Lewandowski.

The effusive applause for Dilma from the majority swallowed up the failed attempt by the right-wing opposition (PSDB, DEM and PPS) to start booing the president.

But the right-wing opposition did not give up and when Dilma mentioned the CPMF she began to boo, again muffled.

This opposition barely disguises its misogyny, machismo and lack of education in relation to Dilma. No president (all men until Dilma's arrival) was treated like this in an opening session, even the most unpopular of them.

Therefore, the reason for this attempt to "undermine" the liturgy, previously always respected, is not Dilma's mistakes, but the fact that she is a woman.

None of the right-wing opposition men booed Cunha, who was formally denounced for corruption and money laundering. If these deputies put a watermelon on their heads, they would attract more attention than they are intending.

It's embarrassing to see these men in black suits and white hair behaving like elementary school students. Shame!
