But the problem is, it's their attitude towards other people's biology too. Just like internalized homophobia in gay men & lesbians often gets directed at other people (& people of all sexual orientations too), internalized misogyny rarely remains solely internal. These young women don't just hate themselves & their own biology, they hate all girls & women - and they expressed a special disgust & disdain for women who have borne children. I remember thinking they had mommy issues x 1000.

Look at Chase Strangio - a young(ish) woman so hating of her own sex that she's dedicated her entire life to removing the sex-based sports, spaces, services & privacy & safety provisions that women have worked hard to obtain over centuries.
