Veteran musician Luo Dayou recently commented on female politicians for being unmarried and childless, causing controversy over the gaffe. Former Vice President Annette Annette attended the "Single Mother Carnival" today (12th), making a public appearance and delivering a speech for the first time in a long time. When the media asked her on-site what she thought of Luo Dayou's remarks, Annette Lu simply responded: "I'm not here for this." Then she silently left the interview area and went to the VIP seats to sit down. However, when she took the stage to give a speech later, she mentioned that politicians should not judge whether they care about the next generation based on whether they have children. She bluntly said that this concept is "too narrow and too chauvinistic. It's time to say goodbye to that era." She seemed to be responding to Luo Dayou from a distance.

Luo Dayou accepted an exclusive interview with a radio program on the 10th and named the marital and childbearing status of female politicians such as former President Tsai Ing-wen, Vice President Xiao Meiqin, and former Supervisory Director Chen Ju. He believed that they are not like people with children who think as much about the next generation, which caused controversy. Tsai Ing-wen responded through social platforms on the 11th, emphasizing that although she does not have children, she will do her best to protect every child in Taiwan.

In her speech, Annette Annette said that every mother plays an important role in bringing life to the earth for 10 months, but the value of life should not be limited to her own children. She emphasized that politicians should not only care about their own children, but all children. "You cannot judge whether he is qualified to engage in politics just because he has children."

She also took single mothers as an example, pointing out that single-parent families lack one or two arms and shoulders to help take care of their children, making their efforts even harder. She hopes that through the help of relevant groups, mothers can make their life journey smoother. Annette Annette admitted that she had not attended a public event for a long time, but she thought this event was quite meaningful and hoped to be able to continue to participate and help in the future.
