Just guessing that all of these publications have suffered HUGE drops in readership and thus revenue. Many stopped their print editions altogether (good, save trees!) and the internet gives people so many choices of things to read, that traditional publishers can't compete -- or they can't dominate like they did pre-internet.

My guess is the publisher, the Feminist Majority Foundation, is hurting for money. I wish we could see an honest list of who funds these publications. If they would at least issue an honest statement: We no longer support women's liberation and instead are focused on male sexual fetish because ____.

No way in hell do 73% of people support boys playing on the girls team.

Did they word it like this: "Should trans children be allowed to play sports or should they be denied the right to play sports all because of who they are, and you support LGBT right? You're not a bigot evil monster who hates kids right? You support the right of ALL children to play sports, of course?" THAT is probably what they said really.

They asked if people agree with the following statement.

Sports are important in young people’s lives. Young transgender people should be allowed opportunities to participate in a way that is safe and comfortable for them.

After telling them that “local schools, state athletic associations, and the NCAA have already implemented policies that ensure a level playing field for all students while also protecting transgender youth.”

How deceitful. Typical of pollsters with an agenda (many if not most of them IMo).

libfems aren't feminist. No feminist in their right mind would claim that men can be women too.

It's time to reclaim feminists from people who clearly are MRA. MRA are also in favor of abortion and contraceptives, since when it does make them feminists?

I'm guessing bought by bribes from Big Gender, just like other women/lesbian/gay/humanitarian/legal media & orgs.
