Newsflash, they do not.
They may not speak for all, but they speak for a helluva lot of men and women in this country.

Women's March live: Thousands worldwide protest Trump - CNNPolitics.com
On the radio, women have been calling in from all over the world to stand in solidarity with American women including having their own marches and protests in their cities and communities. These have all been very peaceful and above all...inspiring.

Women's March: Pro-Life Sponsor Removed | National Review
Your link dated 1/16 says the Pro Life Group was denied the opportunity to be recognized as an official event sponsor, which is not the same as being denied the opportunity to march.

The Pro Life/Pro Choice issue divides activist groups, that otherwise have common ground.

What? Speak correctly.

Yeah the hats stand for the women and what they believe in. Just like women in years pass wore hats or lace on their head out of respect for Christian mass.

It's a symbol for them. Everyone has something to represent themselves.

Default Thoughts on Ashley Judd's rant against Trump at Women's March

During Saturday’s Women’s March in Washington, DC, Ashley Judd ranted, “I am not as nasty as your own daughter being your favorite sex symbol, like your wet dreams infused with your own genes.”
Judd said, “I am not as nasty as racism, fraud, conflict of interest, homophobia, sexual assault, transphobia, white supremacy, misogyny, ignorance, white privilege. I’m not as nasty as using little girls like Pokemon before their bodies have even developed. I am not as nasty as your own daughter being your favorite sex symbol, like your wet dreams infused with your own genes. But, yeah, I’m a nasty woman, a loud, vulgar proud woman. I’m not nasty, like the combo of Trump and Pence being served up to me in my voting booth. I’m nasty like the battles my grandmothers fought to get me into that voting booth. I’m nasty, like the fight for wage equality. Scarlett Johansson, why were the female actors paid less than half of what the male actors earned last year? See, even when we do go into higher paying jobs, our wages are still cut with blades sharpened by testosterone.”




Whoa! I think this will help Dems win elections again in no time

That they're too ugly and pathetic to get grabbed.
