“But they are not the same. They are not women,” said the journalist, to which Jones replied: “She is a transgender woman. That is why there are transgender contests. There is space for everyone. We have the right to free will. If they achieve through these surgeries generate a body very similar to that of a woman, but she is a transgender woman. There are spaces for everyone, is what I think. It is not about discrimination. Everyone has their place. The characteristics are very different. “
