The Leader Of The Women's Party Says The Daily Tele Gave Her 'Free Publicity'
Divvi De Vendre, a candidate running in the Federal election, says an article about her in the Daily Telegraph was inaccurate and a"put down" of her and her party.claiming a Sydney lawyer and writer named Anna Kerr had been"silenced" when a paragraph of a column she wrote for women's media website Women's Agenda which detailed De Vendre's identity as a"transgender woman" was cut.
But De Vendre said she"objects" to being called a transgender woman as"it implies someone who is still transitioning to female". "I've been fully transitioned for three years now," De Vendre said."I am a woman physically, mentally and my hormone base is estrogen." "He called me and all I had was a first name and no confirmation of whether he worked at [the Daily Telegraph] and I thought 'well you've already decided who I am'," she said."He did not explain when the article is going to print."
De Vendre said she had"no intention whatsoever" of standing for the Senate but many of her candidates fell through so she is now running for the seat of NSW.
