Conservative feminism is the shit. I was raised by two black female Republicans (my aunts) who are similar to Condoleezza Rice... they're not hateful at all, they just don't prioritize social issues like Democrats do.

Literally all the fights that feminists had to do were against conservatives until those last 5 years. Somehow, I doubt they changed. They're just better regarding trans issues, and that's all. Your aunts are definitely super cool but they're probably not representative of conservative politicians. Conservative feminism is an oxymoron.

Conservative feminism is an oxymoron.

Isn't self-sufficient, personally-accountable feminism better than the brand that encourages you to be dependent on Uncle Sam?

In all seriousness though, I think we're about to see the right start to wildly embrace the types of right-to-privacy arguments that underpinned Roe v. Wade here in the coming years, and womens' rights will be centered.

The trans phenomenon has marked an inflection point in where the two parties stand on the matter.
