I think it’s because U.K. feminism is very different from USA feminism. The U.K. has a deeply ingrained class system and so U.K. feminists are used to organising along class based lines. This means they are used to campaigning on behalf of distinct groups as opposed to just for individuals. I think USA feminism has become far more atomised and individualistic - it’s all about empowerment for individuals and what can feminism do for “you” as opposed to what can feminism do for women as a class.
