this is not a debate sub! We will get around to making the debate sub for anyone with questions about gender critical ideas or radical feminism. We are migrating over from Reddit after the bannings.

Female is Not a Feeling. We won't go down quietly.

Re-forming wherever we can: Spinster.xyz

Feminism is the movement to liberate women from patriarchy. We stand up for the rights of women to control our own bodies as individuals and to control women-only spaces as a class.

Women are adult human females. We do not believe that men can become women by 'feeling' like women. We do not condone the erasure of females and female-only spaces, the silencing of critical thinking, the denial of biological reality and of sex-based oppression. We oppose the 'cotton ceiling' and the pressure on lesbians to have sex with men. We resist efforts to limit women's reproductive autonomy. We condemn the men who exploit and abuse women in prostitution and pornography.

"Women do not decide at some point in adulthood that they would like other people to understand them to be women, because being a woman is not an ‘identity.’ Women’s experience does not resemble that of men who adopt the ‘gender identity’ of being female or being women in any respect. The idea of ‘gender identity’ disappears biology and all the experiences that those with female biology have of being reared in a caste system based on sex." - Sheila Jeffreys, Gender Hurts

If gender identity is enacted by a liberal SCOTUS as the successor "innate characteristic" to biological sex and "hate speech" laws passed by a liberal legislature are upheld in spite of the 1st Amendment, feminism as you know it will cause to exist in the public forum. As a gay, having learned of the Cotton Ceiling, I'd face similar repercussions if Horseshoe Theory comes full circle to an authoritarian left.

As far as I can tell, it seems like for all the GOP's virtue signaling on abortion, their actual contemporary policy position is to simply hold the line on Roe v. Wade and the Hyde Amendment, apart from the novelty laws you'll see passed e.g. mandatory cardiograms beforehand, etc.

Remember that historically, far-left countries also banned abortion outright - case in point, Communist Romania under Nicolae Ceaușescu - oftentimes taking much more invasive measures to ensure compliance.
