Terfs shouldn’t be called terfs because it stands for Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists but to be a true feminist you have to include ALL women. Trans women. Poc women. Gay women. All women. And excluding any of these types of women makes you anti feminist and a bigot. If feminists really want to change the world and make it easier for women and femme presenting people then they have to do it for ALL women and femme presenting people. You can’t pick and choose when it comes to basic human rights.
also maybe it’s just bc i have a very autistic interest in sociology and human behavior but i like to understand why people think and behave the way they do. it’s been an asset to my ability to advocate for myself and for others. if i know why someone believes something rather than just what they believe, i can have an actual conversation with them. so it always boggles my mind when ppl insist it doesn’t matter why someone believes something, they’re Just Wrong And Should Change Their Mind. like yeah if i could snap my fingers and make someone not transphobic i’d do that but i live on planet earth so the only thing that is gonna potentially get someone to change their mind as long as they’re not too far gone is having an honest conversation with them. i have changed several minds this way, including my own parents, so it’s frustrating to see ppl discouraging this.
