During Monday's morning press conference, President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO) highlighted the importance of the election of Claudia Sheinbaum as the first female president of Mexico.

"Yesterday I already congratulated her. I am very happy because you can imagine what it means to hand over the presidency to a woman after 200 years of republican life in which only men governed Mexico since 1824," he said.

Liberals are already seething. Guessd in Mexico we are not "civilized" enough for a female president.

this is similarly the current SK government's stance on getting called out for their sexism: "we can't be sexist, look at Afghanistan, that's sexism"
