Transgender model and activist Rose Montoya has apologized for going topless at a White House Pride event and posting the video, after a week of criticism from right-wing outlets, trans advocates and the White House press secretary.
“In a quick moment of fleeting and overwhelming trans joy, I decided to do something unbecoming of a guest of the president at the White House lawn celebration,”posted to her Twitter and Instagram accounts Friday, in which she apologized to her family and friends, the LGBTQ+ community, President Biden and the nation.
“Hi, Mr. President. It is an honor,” she said as she greeted the president in the now-deleted video Montoya posted to her Instagram and TikTok account. “Trans rights are human rights!”Montoya stood grinning in front of the White House in one part of the video, the top of her dress at her waist, her hands covering her nipples. Two shirtless friends flanked her, flexing their arm muscles. “Are we topless at the White House?” someone out of the video’s frame asks.
Another commenter said Montoya “set the trans community back so much” for going topless at a “family friendly event.”“Going topless in Washington, D.C., is legal, and I fully support the movement in freeing the nipple,” she said“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 of Washington, D.C., I decided to join them and cover my nipples just to play it safe.”D.C.
