I said it before, and I say it again. TERF means absolutely nothing. TERF doesn't actually mean radfem. It just means that you believe that sex is part of biology and people experience sexual attraction based on sex.

"TERF" practically means Trans-Exterminating Reactionary Fascist these days, haven't you heard?

/s

They use different meanings for the R and F now, they have been for a few years. Anything to make sure people don't see how they're slinging slurs.

"Reactionary" and "Fascist" are two of the multiple newer meanings for R and F.

Hahaha I literally made that up to be facetious, but only because I don't even doubt several TRAs have begun making such hyperbole already for some time

I hate to recommend it, but if you check out r/GenderCynical, you will see the way they remake language and have been for years.

In case you didn't know, they also use FART in place of TERF.

Because they're children (or have the mental capability of toddlers) and think "fart" and/or poop jokes are a real insult. They claim it means "feminist-appropriating radical transphobe", but they literally just made it up to be annoying.
