The Gill Foundation & NCTE choose money over trans lives

Kelley Winters · November 1, 2016

(4) This strategy triggers painful memories of the exclusion of trans people from the federal 2007 Employment Non-Discrimination Act. In both cases, transgender human rights were sacrificed by powerful cisgender kingmakers when politically expedient; and in both cases defamatory Raymondian stereotypes demonizing transgender women as posing “risk” to cisgender women…

Cristan Williams · July 23, 2015

The evidence proves that Janice Raymond didn’t have anything to do with the study that leads to the revocation of public and 3rd party funding for trans medical care and it doesn’t matter anyway because people on the internets say stupid shit.

Rowan Atkinson makes more sense than BBC’s “Woman’s Hour”

Cristan Williams · April 19, 2015

This article discusses the clash of ideology and lived experience as exemplified by a recent BBC radio program in the UK. This article uses the term Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist (TERF) to distinguish between the trans-supportive Radical Feminism of Andrea Dworkin, Catharine MacKinnon, The Olivia Collective or the West Coast…

Was Dworkin being hyperbolic when she said that death would follow under the rubric of this feminism? Is it fair to consider how this feminism informed the events leading up to the death of Filisa Vistima? Is it fair to consider how this new feminism informed the events that lead…

Sex Essentialism: TERF patriarchy and smelly vaginas

Cristan Williams · January 28, 2015

Even more telling of the ideological split between TERFs who call themselves Radical Feminists and the actual Radical Feminist movement is the reality that TERFs did 1/3 of the work for a governmental study which effectively ended the coverage of trans medical care under both public and private insurance.

Gender Critical Feminism, the roots of Radical Feminism and Trans oppression

Cristan Williams · December 8, 2014

Gender Critical Feminism (GCF) is a euphemism for Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminism (TERF). There is no ideological difference between the TERF and “Gender Critical Feminist” (GCF) movement; they are one in the same. GCF teaches that because sex is a natural binary, intersex people are actually just deformed men and women…
