President Kangaloo Questions Gender Bias Amid Political Criticism
President Christine Kangaloo has questioned whether the level of criticism she faces would be the same if she were a man. Her remarks come at a time when she appears to be under increasing scrutiny from members of the opposition UNC, who have openly challenged her actions and public statements.
Some political analysts suggest that the criticism may be politically motivated, as President Kangaloo was appointed during the current PNM administration. Opposition voices have accused her of bias, a claim the President has not directly addressed, but her recent comments suggest concern over the tone and intensity of the attacks.
“I often wonder if I would be treated the same way if I were a man,” she stated, pointing to a broader issue of gender bias in how public figures are judged and held accountable.
The ongoing tension has reignited debate about the role of the presidency, the expectations placed on female leaders, and the often-blurred lines between political critique and personal targeting.
