#CisPrivilege, UK’s Green Party and freedom of speech
Some of you might remember that Germaine Greer, a TERF the Radical Feminist Andrea Dworkin took to task for trying to pass off patriarchy as feminism, made some small waves for appealing to the patriarchal vagina smell trope in order to claim that trans women aren’t real women. However, what’s making waves throughout the UK is that Green Party activist Beatrix Campbell, along with numerous other activists, are appalled that the trans community dared think they had the same rights as feminist or LGB activists: Hey @beatrixcampbell thanks for proving #cisprivilege is a thing! #lgbt #trans #GreenSurge #queer #TERF #feminism — transadvocate (@transadvocate) February 16, 2015
