Just seen someone on Twitter saying they don't like arguing with "TERFs" as "[TERFs] have no comprehension of the difference between a societal construct of gender and the biological categories of sex"
They don't even know what they are arguing against do they? Just yelling for the sake of yelling
I've noticed this very strongly over the past few years, via Twitter and the people we get visiting to educate us. No comprehension that a basic tenet of Feminist argument is that Gender and sex are different. They think Transactivism is the only group to understand that.
Hours of tediously explaining to visiting educators that yes, gender and sex are different, sex is real, and gender is the cultural construct that traps us in rigid categories and forms the mechanism by which women are oppressed.
The difference between Transactivism and Feminism is that Transactivism thinks Gender is good and wonderful instead of a negative and restrictive force.
This is why so many of us have spent so much time actually reading their arguments and propaganda - because if you don't accurately understand someone's argument, you just end up looking like a fucking prat arguing against something they don't even think in the first place.
