“The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off.”

Gloria Steinem

Who recently also said, as a radical feminist (like us):

“So now I want to be unequivocal in my words: I believe that transgender people, including those who have transitioned, are living out real, authentic lives. Those lives should be celebrated, not questioned. Their health care decisions should be theirs and theirs alone to make. And what I wrote decades ago does not reflect what we know today as we move away from only the binary boxes of “masculine” or “feminine” and begin to live along the full human continuum of identity and expression.”

And here we are being told when we say the same thing that we are some sort of trans person. Gee, we guess that one of the most important Radical Feminist leaders of all time is a trans person.

At least based on what we get told.

Of course, our usual suspects -- the inimitable fucking assholes we have for so long dealt with -- will all say that she's "sold out" despite being in a position where she has no reason to sell out.

They will magically find that the reasons for her decision have nothing to do with what she says, but instead they will police her, making up their minds about what she says and what she means for her.

Just like they pick on everyone else. They aren't radical feminists.  They are feminists who pretend to be radical, in a conservative way.

Ain't that right, Cathy Brennan.

In 1974, Ms. Magazine published a long excerpt from Conundrum, the autobiography of the writer Jan Morris, and her transition from her life as James Humphrey Morris, a British army officer. Hers was a brave voyage to authenticity and a story I was glad to play a role in bringing to this country.

Obviously, there is much similarity among the challenges of transgender people and all women — from health care to harassment to discrimination in the workplace. And there is always the basic patriarchal bias against any sexual expression that can’t end in conception, which is why kids on campus are sometimes mystified by the fact that the same groups oppose both, say, contraception and lesbians. I also think we have a lot to learn from original cultures that often didn’t even have “he” and “she” in their languages, taught girls how to control their own fertility, and routinely accepted and had special roles for the “twin-spirited.” These facts may remind us that patriarchy, racism, and nationalism have been dominant for less than 5% of human history. Maybe they are an experiment that failed.

Strange, she says much the same stuff that person we are supposed to be says.  Why, its almost as if they know less about radical feminism than the people they hate!

I know we’ve all worked hard on and are celebrating the Supreme Court marriage rulings this spring, but there is so much work to do to reach full LGBT equality — and ensuring that transgender people also have equality under the law has been the most left out and therefore should become foremost on that list. 

 I’m grateful for this opportunity to say that I’m sorry and sad if any words floating out there from the past seem to suggest anything other than support, past and present. As feminists know, power over our own minds and bodies comes first.

Past and present, folks -- she's always supported trans people.

And she's sorry she didn't make that more clear.

That's what a real radical feminist does: the radical, feminist thing.

She steps up and speaks out and tells the truth.

Peak Out, peoples.

We have just gotten together after a meeting where we were basically told to knock it right the fuck off.

It was an agreement: the person we argued with would be on tumblr more, and we would be on tumblr more, but on our personal accounts, not this one.

We are peak radfem.  The end all and be all.

We know we will be back.

The fucking assholes just can't help themselves...

[peakradfem]

oh yeah, broken promises.

You are good at that -- lying.  Real good.

We've always marveled at the way you think asking people for "sources" -- when all you, personally, have to do, is go out and look for your damn self -- is so important, when anyone with half a brain knows you never rely on the sources of the person you are arguing with.

Doing so is like asking the devil to prove he's honest.

Yet you do it all the time, and you think it is some sort of special thing.

Look, we don't care if you believe us or not.  It's the truth, Independently verifiable, and we're good with that.  

You really like to set people up for failure using that logical fallacy of yours -- it makes it easier for you to shift the goalposts.

You are such a complete fraud, sweetie.

Yo that’s fucked up. I don’t even support the extermination of cockroaches.

[peakradfem]

The term TERF was coined by a trans woman as Trans Exterminationist Radical Feminist.

It caught on, and then in order to "reclaim" it, some of you all decided to change the name.

But that's not how it was coined, and that's nt what it actually stands for.  It stands for exterminationist.

SO now we need to know where, in your littel self serving male brain yo managed to get the idea that it wasn't such. we also want to remind you, yet again, that We aren't Toni.  You can keep saying we are, because it just makes you look like even more a fool.

You call us misogynisitc, yet you've managed to be racist, misogynistic, and sexist.  Poor little male brained pissant.

You want to stop being called such then perhaps you should stop along yourself or identifying with terfs.

Especially when it means trans exterminationist.

Peak radfem thinks I support the extermination of trans people

Yo that’s fucked up. I don’t even support the extermination of cockroaches.

You still don't understand social constructions. Good.

"sex is not a social construct at all, my vagina EXISTS so there."

A 2,969,907 sq mi area of mostly uninhabited desert exists in the Pacific ocean, “Australia" is still a social construct.

Clocks exist; the sun rises and sets;…

[peakradfem]

You, her, its all the same prejudice and hatred.  You are both fucking assholes, just like Rick Perry and Pol Pot.

You both lie, you both misrepresent, you both are dishonest and use irrational arguments.  You both demonstrate ignorance and incompetence.

"Transgender" children are more often…

[peakradfem]

oh dear.

We have to let the *actual* toni know about this then.  She's long had questions about many of the seriously questionable statements you've made that demonstrate a deep and abiding disrespect for science.

"Transgender" children are more often…

[peakradfem]

Hey, sweetie, if you think it wasn't coined by a trans woman, then go out and look it up for yourself.

And that trans woman coined it as exterminationist. So all of the folks so damned proud to be a TERF are using the word she coined, and that means it says they are in favor of genocide.

End of story.

Yo that’s fucked up. I don’t even support the extermination of cockroaches.

bug, bug bug -- we aren't Toni. But you still don't get that.  Which is ok: you still don't get much of anything.  Except your own rational wiki.

For being anything but rational.

How do you do it, though?  How do you manage to lie so much, so often, and still retain your inner humanity?   Is it hard?  Is it easy?  Or did you just finally surrender it?

Oh, and sorry about your brain.

"Transgender" children are more often...

porn culture exists in a vacuum.

Terfbored

who manages to utterly ignore a massive and foundational tenet of Radical Feminism in an incomplete sentence that is incredibly false.

Society is not a vacuum.

[peakradfem]

Piss off does not equal naught.

Which, oddly enough, confirms the point we were making in the first place -- the point that, like in the overall exchange, you missed.

Because you need a reading comprehension class.

Have you been this glaringly stupid all your life, or just most of it?

We are reblogging this for the comment about where is the outrage from mainstream feminists. the questioner may not have needed an answer, but apparently their version of mainstream feminism ignores the fact that it was mainstream feminism that raised the issue and got it attention enough that they might happen to fucking come across it. Also, the pro-lifers are where they already where: wielding the scalpels.

It's really fucking funny you think anons are stupid, since your supposed "collective" are all essentially blogging anonymously, covered by your group blog. It's also really hilarious how the racial, class, and trans* status of that collective will change on a dime to suit your particular stupid purposes. You're a bunch of racist douchefucks.

Let us see, shall we?We are accused of a whole host of things since they are always the things that people dislike the most at that moment. We simply state we are going to do what the people on our list already do, and suddenly we are the greatest and most pernicious evil ever to walk the planet.We long ago noted that we were an anon group.  That has changes in membership -- and you aren't necessarily going to know what those changes are or when they happen.

All of which serves to make you very uncomfortable, and of course, anything uncomfortable cannot possibly be true in your pathetic little imaginary world.

Here's a quick newsflash for ya slick: we remain anonymous because of the things you already do. When we aren't here, we are often on our own personal tumblr accounts..

And all of the people on our list have followed various members of PRF.All of them.  SO we find it laughable when you all attack us for being anonymous because you've already decided for us who we are, so you can't actually make that claim.

Without admitting you were wrong.  And if you were wrong, then, by the basic simple rules of common decency (which none of you have or even seem aware, you spoiled little shits), then you would owe the people you have accused us of being an apology.

Which you won't do.  ANd will make up all sorts of reasons to not do it.

And because you won't apologize, we aren't able to apologize. That's how this works.

Meanwhile, you run around talking about genocide as if it was a fucking joke and a good thing.

Yeah, you really have a good chance of making us feel bad -- not.

We have heard our three followers...

And so we will be mostly attacking their posts for their lack of honesty and rational thought with an occasional snark.
