    Oh, ffs. My own professed beliefs have not changed. I still support trans identity and don't support authoritarian, unreasonable & aggressive trans activists. And, yes, I still disagree with radfems.pic.twitter.com/udlmeAztxY

        Do you really expect me to say 'Oh, some trans activists are awful? Now I see that gender is a cultural construct and women are an oppressed class under patriarchy." I am a liberal. This means I oppose illiberal people. That includes authoritarian trans activists & mad radfems.

        And no, I'm not going to credit radfems for my 'realisation' that some trans activists are authoritarian ideologues. I never disagreed with you about this. I disagreed about the mad stuff about trans women being MRAs furthering patriarchal agendas to appropriate womanhood etc.

        This is the piece where I apparently agreed with all radfem points. It is strange then that the result of it was dozens of radfems telling me I was part of the trans cult, a misogynist, an MRA. If radfems actually took this stance it would be wonderful.https://areomagazine.com/2017/09/27/an-argument-for-a-liberal-and-rational-approach-to-transgender-rights-and-inclusion/ …

        So what's the diffetence between a TERF and a RadFem? And how about those and 4th Wave?

        All trans exclusionary radical feminists are radical feminists but not all radical feminists are trans exclusionary. In practice, most do seem to be tho.

        Ah thanks. Ok, and since you accept trans identity, you must be a radical feminisy, but not a Terf?

        Disregard everything except for this "Jerry Coyne & the intellectual dark webbers think she's brilliant." That's SO FLATTERING.

        You know how when foreigners have to come to the UK they have to give an IELTS test to determine reading, speaking and comprehension ability? It should be compulsory for locals too, I have not been impressed by the comprehension skills of the Brits.

        @CathyYoung63 @CHSommers What hope do conservative men have to discuss these topics when a progressive woman is slagged for her perfectly reasonable views?

        Radfem sounds like something out of the fallout video games.
