They devalued themselves and their message by doing it in such a partisan and Trump focused manner.
Not to mention strutting around with Vagina masks/hats and the vulgar signs/slogans as well as assaulting those who disagreed with their message.
One other problem is the lack of one or two CONCISE messages. It was just a jumble of noise but I'm sure they felt better afterwards...
The DNC had zero to do with organizing or promoting this march. It started from a Facebook post about meeting in D.C. to protest Mr. Trump and it went viral at the speed of light.
Lol, yeah, it was started by a unicorn.
It is cute that some people are naive enough to believe this wasn't a DNC operation.
I don't know why I'm moved to defend myself here, because it feels vaguely unseemly to outline our family's volunteerism, but here goes. My family regularly volunteers for a food pantry that supports women and children who have nowhere else to turn, and we perform other acts of volunteerism as opportunities arrive. We have done Christmas drives, food collection drives, and drives to collect eyeglasses for people who don't have them (a personal favorite of mine, because I am fighting a disease that causes blindness). We have filled boxes with toiletries and distributed them to the homeless, cleaned up rivers/built trails, sorted professional clothing for battered women trying to re-enter the workforce, and collected money to support woman-owned micro-businesses in third world countries.
You can't shake me, because I know what my family does to help people who are not nearly as fortunate as we are thanks in great part to being in the right place at the right time. The kid my son handed money to was not much older than he is and was quite likely homeless. It was all the money my son had in his pocket, money he had earned through his own effort. So, please, knock it off. I do not accept your attempt to discredit me or my family.
And yet you felt compelled to waste $10 on a narcissistic and ineffective public temper tantrum instead if donating that $10 to a domestic violence shelter. That says a lot about your values, whether you know it or not.
I am 68 and not scared in the slightest. You and I share the same life experiences. Can you tell me what you think you were protesting against, and what was the result, other than you and a bunch of other old ladies trying to feel relevant? You did no good, except for any enjoyment you got out of it.
I'm serious interested, not meaning to be flippant. We both lived through the same challenges...birth control being illegal, the pro choice thing, women not being able to get credit. I am like you, and yet, I would not align myself with the likes of some of those women who protested in Washington.
women do join up for things just because its women related. I would love to see women stop doing this.

Think about it...
How much money did I spend to attend? You still haven't let me know.

With (reportedly) George Soros backing to boot, NOT GOOD...

By my draft research, which I’m opening up for crowd-sourcing on GoogleDocs, Soros has funded, or has close relationships with, at least 56 of the march’s “partners,” including “key partners” Planned Parenthood, which opposes Trump’s anti-abortion policy, and the National Resource Defense Council, which opposes Trump’s environmental policies. The other Soros ties with “Women’s March” organizations include the partisan MoveOn.org (which was fiercely pro-Clinton), the National Action Network (which has a former executive director lauded by Obama senior advisor Valerie Jarrett as “a leader of tomorrow” as a march co-chair and another official as “the head of logistics”). Other Soros grantees who are “partners” in the march are the American Civil Liberties Union, Center for Constitutional Rights, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. March organizers and the organizations identified here haven’t yet returned queries for comment.

My fifteen-year-old son gave all the money he was carrying in his wallet to a homeless teenager. Did you miss that part? I'm perfectly okay with the values that inspired him to do so. How you can twist that into a narcissistic act is beyond me!
