In an Instagram post, she said:

“Unclassy”, “Unladylike”, “Crass”… yeah yeah yeah. We’re not stooping to their level, we’re obliterating their level. “Grab em by the p**sy…”? Im so grateful to be an American woman with the freedom to publicly say NOT THIS P**SY with my daughter at my side. And yes I did explain to her what it meant. And yes she is a badass little girl who believes in her own worth and equality. I’m proud to be a woman who stands up for herself and her daughter!
