Ok, but the best feminists are radical feminist that are sex work and trans inclusive. I don’t like people lumping terfs with radical feminist. Terfs are neither radical nor feminist
From a lot of the reading Ive done tonight to educate myself more about it, it seems like RadFem is a co-opted term similar to say how Libertarian was taken by right wingers.
Stuff like Anarcha-Feminism or even Marxist-Feminism would be the better ideologies.
While radfem is literally a portmanteau of radical feminist, it’s a colonized term that refers specifically to certain second wave tendencies that are notorious today for being exclusionary.
too bad they have basically taken over and co-opted the term RadFem along with misandrists, you technically could still use it, but you’d get a few side eyes cus that is what most think of RadFems as…
They dislike RadFems like SWERFs (Sex Worker Radical Feminist) and TERFs (Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist).

It’s such bullshit… RadFem should clearly only refer to feminists that can at least pull off a kickflip.
agreed, unfortunately who can’t even skate co-opted it
Agree.
I hate poser radfems. If you don’t have them skills then you can’t claim to be a real rad fem.
The libertarian example is a great analogy.
