it's... interesting how perhaps a vast majority of tirfs use the term "trans-inclusive radical feminism" as a way to signal "i don't hate trans women! (at least not as much as terfs do)" rather than radical feminism which incorporates transmisogyny & transfeminist perspective into its theory & practice.

#stop using it like that!! 🙃#like just imagine (im a woc so no seething lol) when woc are included like a little 'well i tolerate you i guess' add-on to feminism #much like trans women are esp in tirf spaces. we call that white feminism! similarly this is cis-centric feminism lol #don't use words that Mean Things as a card to signal you're not transmisogynistic when you clearly are lol #lots of passive aggressive lols in this one #trans inclusive radfem #trans inclusive radical feminism #tirf #radical feminism #ex-terf #ive seen tarf proposed as an alternative as in trans-affirmative radical feminism but it's really not about the names...#it's about this idea that feminism's goals can be complete without the inclusion of trans women #(it can't)#and that even if cis women could achieve freedom without trans women...#it's clearly unethical to leave a marginalized group of women behind #transmisogyny #transphobia #misogyny
