FEMALE SENATOR GOES HALF NAKED ON ZOOM MEETING (PHOTO)
A female senator who did not know her webcam was on went half-naked during a zoom meeting.
Martha Lucia Micher, a senator in Mexico, issued an apology for removing her top during a live government meeting attended by at least 15 senators and other press representatives.
According to the 66-year-old Senator, she was unaware that her camera was on and wanted to change her clothes.
Senator Micher released a statement online where she explained the incident and apologised for her error.

However, screenshots of the topless Senator went viral online with trolls passing hateful comments about her body.
In response, Senator Micher, who is also the President of the State Commission of Gender Equality on Twitter, said she is not ashamed of her body.
“I am Malu Micher, and I am not ashamed to have shown part of my intimacy by accident, because it is exactly the notion that a woman is ‘just her body’ that has allowed and fomented the objectification of women against which I have always fought.
“I am a woman of 66 years of age who has breastfed four children, three of whom are today professional and responsible men, and I feel proud of my body for having nourished them.
“I am a woman who has fought for the left for almost 40 years and who has occupied various public roles in my fervent commitment for the defence of human rights, I am a woman who is not ashamed of her body, I love it and I take care of it.”
Many of her colleagues also retweeted her response and showed solidarity for Senator Malu Micher.
