Twitch has issued a brief statement after being criticizing for attempting to use an all-inclusive term for Women’s History Month, which began today.

In a now-deleted tweet, Twitch shared a video to celebrate all women on the platform. Twitch used the term “Womxn” in an attempt to include the LGBTQIA+ community, which immediately garnered backlash. Specifically, many pointed out that by choosing to use a separate phrase to include trans women, the platform was actually excluding them.
