I get and agree with that, and admit my ignorance, but from my superficial skim of it during the JKR controversies, it seems like most people there are still keeping the radfem framework of being systemically oppressed by males and by the patriarchy - which I don't agree with, at least when it comes to western society.

i'm probably ignorant about that, as well. radfem and gender critical ideas are mutually exclusive in my mind and i don't consider myself a radical feminist. i mean, i do believe in equal rights and equity for women but i don't think the whole world is out to get us to make sure we fail. i can somewhat see where radfems are coming from in terms of oppression especially with the older generations but i agree that the problems people endure between different socioeconomic stratas are more obvious and should be more heavily addressed
