is radical feminism literally just a thing for terfs because it sure fucking seems like it
btw terfs please die
There are large groups of radfems who follow an “identify how you want but do no harm” sort of idea. They follow all the ideals of radical feminism (women face sex based oppression) and analyzing how it takes root in our society, and how to oppose it. They believe that gender is a social class ascribed to biology, a combination of expectations and socializations we place on a person determined by their biological sex.
There are also even radfems who believe there are very important parts of trans activism (right to employment without discrimination, right to housing without discrimination, right to a community who also experiences gender dysphoria). There are still critiques of certain subsets of trans activism (lesbians should have full autonomy, and never be expected to invite someone with a penis into their dating pool) but most TRAs I’ve met agree with these things whether or not they identify as radical feminists.
So if you’re curious about radical feminism while still wanting to be supportive of trans people, you should absolutely read through some radfem blogs and see what you think. There are tons of Trans Exclusive Radical Feminists, but most of it is born from biological female centric ideology vs any hatred. And for those who exhibit hatred, its easy to just ignore them. They’re a small but vocal group.
But I’m not sure if you’re interested in core feminist ideals if you’re asking a group of women to ‘please go die’ because you disagree with them. Discourse within the radfem community isn’t addled with death threats against our fellow women, even when we’re completely opposing them.
Still might be useful to read around and see what you think!
