that was the original definition yes, but nowadays they'll call any "trans exclusionary" women a TERF regardless. I guess they believe the "Radical Feminist" part is implied simply by not wanting biological males in female spaces.
Yeah, pretty much liberal feminism or conservative feminism. Even though I’m generally more left leaning I agree with the “terfs” a lot more, although either side can get too extreme with the man bashing (and trans hate). which is unfortunate as it makes people hate feminism even though overall it’s goal is not to say women are better than men. conservative feminists at least can admit for example that women are physically weaker than men on average instead of pushing the whole “women have exactly the same capabilities as men” and that women typically are more emotional (but that’s not necessarily a bad thing).
It's not a bad thing. My gf can read a room way, way better than I can. We have complementary traits, it's just that it follows the traditional notion of traits.
Theres a line though. Trans people happen. Though I think it's just a mental illness that needs to be reconciled on a per person basis.
The body isnt wrong the brain is. If you are 18 whatever change your gender but know that it will never change the sex.
I just hate when 0.8% of the population wants to make changes to how the 99.2% goes to the bathroom. And I'm not using special pronouns unless they are my friend and specifically ask me to do so.
What are your thoughts on transgenderism?

You haven't mentioned anything about feminism. To be a terf, one must first be a feminist.

Feminist how? An "everyone who wants equality is a feminist" feminist, or a "we're still not equal" feminist?

Yeah theres 2 forms of "radical" feminism you got the true radicals that hate men in general.
Then you have Terfs which are just normal feminist that know what a real woman is.

That's a fair thing to do. I'm just for equality. Give everyone a shot.

It's not implied by that, though.
