The response to the sexist comments of Thanos Tzimeros about the… childless and unwed ministers was immediate by Sofia Zaharakis, who was targeted by the person who wants to comment on everyone and everything, except his own failure in the political world.
Ms. Zaharaki noted that she will be judged by her efficiency in her ministerial work and not by the choices in her personal life.
“I will be judged by my hard work and efficiency and I think by my ability to manage, if I haven’t shown anything so far. All other things are my personal choices and do not concern anyone,” said the Minister of Social Cohesion and Family.
“Love for children, love for people does not fit into molds and is not judged by personal choices” added Sofia Zaharaki, responding to Mr. Tzimeros’ “unmarried and childless” comments.
