I think so, testing.
At the moment, these women see older women as living relics- embodying a past/history that has been left behind, and statues to fossilised political beliefs.
They don't realise that it's not history - it's a future waiting for them as they age and accrue life experiences (especially life experiences that bring them up against the cold, hard wall of structural discrimination).
There's a real unwillingness to believe that thinking takes place in time, is done within material bodies, and is shaped by that material body living through and reflecting on lived experience.
Thinking is not done once, then frozen, nor is it simply a found object - a bag you find in the street; a book taken down from a shelf - and it is seldom done in a unitary fashion.
Despite what centuries of people have told us, thinking is often hashed our in concert with other people. And that is particularly true of feminist thinking.
All of this is to say that the attempt to dismiss the women criticising the TRA position as frozen relics of the thinking of a by-gone age is woeful.
We draw on life experience, we use that to evolve our thinking in the present, for the present, and for the future, and there are many of us.
This age-based division is poisonous.
It really is a divide and conquer thing. And it's an attempt to silence a lot of thoughtful, experienced, and often accomplished women.
It cuts younger women off from that source of power. It acts to remove women from positions of influence that they have fought to achieve.
And it does that by promising younger women (predominantly younger women) that, actually, things aren't that bad; the days of brutal struggle are long gone; they can achieve equality without compromising the desire to be 'nice' or coming into conflict with men (& being punished),
And, of course, there is the spectacle of what happens to -even relatively powerful - women who don't comply.
