TERFs: "We're RADICAL FEMINISTS who EXCLUDE trans people!" "Oh, calling us trans-exclusionary radical feminists is a slur though!"
-
I pretty regularly have TERFs seek me out to mock me, almost always in gendered terms (usually calling me a girl as if that's an insult).
When someone says "haha GIRL you'll never b a man you're just a fake caricature of one" it's hard to square that with abolition of gender.

My response is always that I don't see being called a girl or feminine as an insult. It's merely incorrect (girl) or irrelevant (feminine).

Nobody over the age of 18 should be called a girl, regardless of their gender. And what does feminine mean anyway?

That's nasty. And unkind. And a reinforcement of the patriarchy. As I see it the patriarchy is trying to keep ppl in their boxes.
