    It's one thing to say that TERFs aren't feminists, but I think the more important point is that TERFs have provided a brand of "feminism" that misogynists can enjoy. A kind of "feminism" that succeeds due to its patriarchal seal of approval.

    Of course that's not feminism, and it's one thing to criticise that, but in a lot of media avenues that are still patriarchy-led it has replaced feminism, which is far more dangerous.

    @Catriona it all comes down to control.

    If they leave trans people alone, they're not controlling us.

    But if they allow cis women to actually protect themselves, they're not controlling them either.

    So while the attacks seem hypocritical, the motivation actually aligns.
