"abolishing gender and its violent consequences"? Is she threatening that anyone who disagrees and/or opposes her will be met with violence?

No. That's not a fair reading. She's saying that violence arises from the dominant male/submissive (or beaten into submission) female gender roles. But she's not acknowledging that her ideology is premised on the concept of inherent gender roles rather than on liberation fr them.

What the hell is feminist about this!

Nothing. This person is not a feminist, she doesn’t know the meaning or value of basic words. Female. Woman. What she is is all twisted around and actively fighting against the interest of her sex. No a feminist she isn’t.

I am worried about the future. As a 47 y/o mother of 2 and lifelong feminist, I don’t understand the endgame for these people. Why do they have to erase woman as a specific thing in order to feel empowered?

I am relatively new to this debate; I was shocked to see mainstream political support for the legal obliteration of 'female' as a biological fact and defining characteristic. It feels to me, like a new expression of male entitlement to define and limit female autonomy and rights.

Imposed culture war?!? Who imposed what on who? I wouldn't have to protect female spaces if others weren't trying to encroach upon them.

Ms Bindel is on your side. (As am I.)

Yeah “woman is an umbrella term” is pretty disturbing. Also the inference that women are hijacking feminism is...
