Rose Montoya is a f**king joke, and I’m so happy to see countless members of the LGBTQ community, like @zayapersian calling out the bullshit. This was a family-friendly event; busting out your t*ts in front of children will never be appropriate.

Can’t follow those rules? Don’t accept WH invites.
Rose Montoya witnessing all the hatred online, reacted to the backslash, saying- It recently comes to my attention that some conservatives are trying to use my video of being topless at the White House to try to call the community groomers as a mess, and I would like to just say that in Washington DC going topless is legal and I fully support the movement because why is my chest now deemed inappropriate or illegal when I show it off? However, before coming out as trans, it was not. All you’re doing is affirming I’m a woman.

All you’re doing is saying that trans women are women because, for some reason, people like to sexualize women’s bodies and say that they are inappropriate. My trans masculine friends were showing off their top surgery scars and living in joy, and I wanted to join them.
And because it is perfectly within the law in Washington DC, I decided to join them and cover my nipples just to play it safe because I wanted to be fully free myself. I had zero intention of trying to be vulgar or profane in any way. I was simply living, enjoying, living my truth existing in my body.
Happy Pride. Free the nipple.”
