Yes, exactly. And the radfems who died or went inactive before the rise of postmodern approaches are still popular. But those who exist now are violently opposed to SocJus left and outnumbered by them so their influence is limited.

Did you see the survey I did, in which my biggest group of respondents opposed to intersectionality, PoMo, trans activism, Islamophilia, identity politics in universities etc were radfems?

hope I can chip in - I don't see their view greatly reduced - the whole
#metoo
shows that extremist & man-hating runs what once was feminism.
And I think the backlash will put people off for decades - or maybe will be even unrecoverable...1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Yes, but this was mostly intersectionals and not radfems. They were there too but metoo isn't a radfem initiative and many of the women who criticised it are libertarian lefties whose view overlap with radfem.

I think you misunderstood me - I don't know or care (don't mean that aggressive) for different strains of feminism... for me from the outside its all the same thing. And the backlash will also not care, I'm pretty sure it will not even care if women are feminist or not.

Yes, that's what we were talking about how. How central radfems were to this. Turns out we agree they are very much secondary to intersectionals who are dominant right now.

Did you read the article that business owners in the USA are thinking about not to hire women anymore? - I think this whole debate will crush down over a really long time...

I made the same argument in more moderate form here. It's a fear.http://quillette.com/2017/11/22/women-victims-four-women-respond/ …

I actually think its reality... in the article on medium the author said he got a mega response with a lot of agreement. Also saw it on Reddit in a thread with very positive answers... I personally think we are already there...
