James Smith’s sent his wife’s posthumous Woman Of The Year award back to Glamour after Caitlyn Jenner was given the same honor this year. Smith’s wife died rushing into the south tower of the World Trade Center buildings.

“I was shocked and saddened to learn that Glamour has just named Bruce Jenner ‘Woman of the Year,'” Smith wrote in a scathing letter.

“At a time when we have women in the armed forces fighting and dying for our country, heroic doctors fighting deadly diseases, women police and firefighters putting their lives on the line for total strangers, brave women overcoming life threatening diseases . . . the list of possibilities goes on . . . is this the best you could do?”

Smith isn’t the only person who feels Glamour should have chosen someone else to covet the honor. Do you agree with his reaction?
