About

"TERF" is short for "trans-exclusionary radical feminism", a misnomer by which gender essentialist reactionaries pretend to be egalitarian while in fact working to reinforce and reinvigorate rigid hierarchical social dichotomies – a form of false advocacy.

Usage

The acronym is more frequently used to refer to practitioners of this ideology, i.e. "Trans-Exclusionary Reactionary Feminist". Some less common but more accurate acronyms include TWERP ("Trans-Women-Excluding Reactionary Pseudofeminist") and FART ("Feminism-Appropriating Reactionary Transphobe")[1].

  • 2017/04/04 [L..T] Are Butches Disappearing? (video) "I've had enough of anti-trans lesbians attacking me, or trying to "save" me, which is incredibly condescending and erases the years of research and soul-searching (I actually prefer soul-creation) I have done. So I wanted to put all my thoughts down into a (big) “bite sized” chunk here to direct them to when they start to vomit a word salad at me."
