I wanted to go to the women's march yesterday. But there was a level of discomfort I had, and I hadn't been able to quite put my finger on it. However, as I was looking at pics from the event, it kind of struck me: I think the reason I don't feel comfortable is that I feel as though the women's marches are more about pushing agendas that I don't agree with than supporting ALL women.
