    Hundreds of thousands of women, many with husbands, boyfriends, and children in tow, filled the streets of several major US cities on Saturday in an unprecedented wave of mass protests against President Donald Trump the day after his inauguration.
    Women activists, galvanized by Trump campaign rhetoric and behavior they found to be especially misogynistic, spearheaded scores of US marches and sympathy rallies around the world that organizers said drew nearly 5 million protesters in all.
    The demonstrations, far surpassing crowd expectations, highlighted strong discontent over Trump's comments and policy positions toward a wide range of groups, including Mexican immigrants, Muslims, the disabled and environmentalists.

    I wonder what the 42% of women who voted for Trump were doing today?

    Or the majority of white women?
