LGBTQ Nation.This year, the town created one in the likeness of a trans woman, which it called the “Diversity Böögg”.The Böögg was dressed in a rainbow skirt and red tie.
It had long blond hair and makeup on one side of its face, while the other had short, curly dark hair. It also had visible breasts and a penis, the latter of which was meant to be revealed by wind, Zuri Today reports.“When it blew up the Böögg’s skirt, many spectators grinned,” master of ceremonies Christian Weiss told the outlet. “On Facebook, you can now choose the gender from a wide range of options,” Weiss explained. “It was the same with the Böögg this year.
It has different features and there is something for everyone.”Weiss explained that the intention was to focus on a current event but they felt that anything about the ongoing pandemic or the war in Ukraine would be too sad, so instead, they opted for the “happy fun” idea of burning a trans woman in effigy.For those speaking out against the design, Weiss said that they’re simply reading too much into it.
