    It used to be back in the pre-trans era. I think it's such a vague term it won't pull up results in a keyword search. I learned it on radfems blogs.

    Andrea Dworkin definitely wrote about the concept, she was very critical of the left.

    Feminists, any of you know a link or a text that defines the term?

    A bit unrelated, but to give you an insight, I make records using the Library of Congress subject headings. Every base type of person/occupation/group is assumed to be straight white men. When they're women/gay/black/children, that when it's narrowed down, for example, physicians and women physicians, or teachers and African American teachers.

    This is, interestingly, similar to what you've found, but far more specific in nature and doesn't have mega categories for 'non-white physicians' but rather describes what the person is rather than what they're not.
