Finland’s PM says young female government has been target of hate speech
Prime Minister Sanna Marin of Finland says she and her fellow young female ministers have been targeted with extensive hate speech for their gender and appearance while in office. “We can see that when you are young and female the hate speech that we are facing is often sexualised,” Marin told Reuters in an interview on Wednesday, a little more than two years into her term as Finland’s state leader. Marin, 36, became the world’s youngest serving government leader in December 2019 when she was sworn in as prime minister https://www.reuters.com/article/us-finland-government-finmin-idUSKBN1YD0IN, and originally all five party leaders in her centre-left coalition government were female.
