Terfs Using Racism To Own The Transes

Terfs using racism to own the transes

Jordan Klepper looks at the issue of sex education in schools

In case you forgot who Sharron was, let me remind you:

Radfem/terf/GC ideology leads to far right extremism. Because that's where it stems from. It has ZERO to do with feminism.

They conspire with anyone and everyone, as long as they share one common goal: Their hate for trans people. Their desire to eradicate us. Everything else comes second (if at all)

I honestly have no idea why TERFs are so hung up on inclusive language. 

It’s not like any kind of abortion legislation that is worded using the phrase “pregnant individuals” would somehow EXCLUDE women who needed abortion access? (It would however ensure that you wouldn’t have some loophole where a trans man who had legally changed their gender marker could be denied abortion services if he needed it.) 

It’s not like if we make the tampon boxes GREEN instead of pink, women won’t be able to buy them any more. It’s not like calling them “personal hygiene products” or “menstrual products” instead of “feminine hygiene products” would some how make them HARDER to buy?

It’s not like anyone would read “people who can get pregnant” or “people who have periods” and get like…confused? They wouldn’t FORGET that those issues impact (most) women? Like, if we somehow say the WORD “women” less often, are people going to FORGET that women…exist? No. They would, at worst, not even notice the somewhat uncommon wording. 

I can’t imagine a single scenario in which using inclusive language in situations where is applies could harm cis women?

I don’t know what harm TERFs THINK that inclusive language would cause. They just don’t want to be lumped in with non-binary folk and trans men. They just don’t want ANYONE to acknowledge that people outside of their narrow and strict idea of the traditional western gender-sex binary exists. 

And honestly, it’s not worth arguing with them about it. (So, hint, I won’t. If you’re a transphobe who comes at me on this post, I’m just gonna block you. I’m not giving you a platform here. This is just a sneaky trap to help bulk up my block list.)
