I have never seen the term "wombyn" used on Ovarit or here or GC Reddit. The only time I've seen it has been in discussions by and about First Nations Americans. Where did the writer get the idea it's a radfem tbing?

Sometimes I see women use it in michfest related stuff on other sites.

Not sure politically where everyone who uses it falls, other than maybe some devine feminine stuff (??)

Yeah I'm very familiar with the oldschool womyn spelling but never the womb version.

What pissed me off was hearing that it.was ok for Native Americans to use it to distinguish and honour biological females. But not for other women. In that case it was terfy

Their hypocrisy is the only thing that's consistent.

I do see the womb version time to time but its definitely rarer than the others was what I meant. Lol “you get a terf pass”
