Thanks for your posts. I haven't been a Dem since 2021 when I became an Independent voter. The Biden administration was the last straw for me. I support the few Dems (two?) who have realized the truth about the trans craze that has taken over their party. Sadly, they are grossly outnumbered. I think they deserve some extra support over the holidays.
Not sure how I feel about the term TERF. It's accurate in that we want to exclude men pretending to be women from of our sports and bathrooms. I haven't used the term radical feminist for myself but I know plenty of women who wear it as a badge of courage. I think I would say it's entirely up to each individual if they are proud to be a TERF. I have no opinion either way and would probably choose not to get involved in the terminology that each woman finds for herself.

Many feminists have reclaimed TERF as a badge of honor. However, in this context, TERF is clearly intended as a slur.
Yes, every women is free to use or not use TERF.
It's a good conversation to have for sure. I rarely use that term but it's not offensive to me either.
