Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist

Someone who doesnt think transwomen are fully women & should be treated as such, that they shouldnt be entitled to everything that women are entitled to.

You claim to be a feminist but think that gynecologists should be able to refuse transwomen? Radical!

You say that youre a feminist but think that transwomen shouldnt be able to compete in womens martial arts? Youre the radical!

I forget what TERF stands for, but basically, it's a person who's a proponent of minority & gay rights, but not trans rights

edit: other posts have explained it better.

Well, the campaign for women's rights and benefits, because radical feminist. They just don't acknowledge transwomen as real women.

Just cause its on Wikipedia doesnt make it a real word.

Eh, it's been a thing for many years. It's just become far more pervasive in use these days as trans rights activism gains ground.

Is this the same J.K Rowling who made Dumbledore suddenly gay?

I saw that she was in some disagreement with GLAAD, but I didn't follow up on the story.

No, it's the J K Rowling who made Dumbledore actually dead the whole time.

Well, in reality, their level of radical feminism probably varies. But TERF is a handy cudgel to swing at them.

at least in this case, they did, since the term TERF was coined by TERFs

I always knew that every student at Hogwarts was actually high as fuck, and the teachers and "wizards" were really just their drug dealers...

That, or they were actually a bunch of old hippies living in their old English commune.

Aha...I meant it more as a "is this the same woman who has been ret conning her characters to make them more woke, because she doesn't want to admit that she wrote a book series featuring a majority white and straight cast?".
