DiscussionDo you think the queer and trans movement will drive lesbians - particularly young lesbians - into the arms of radical feminists?

Literally most radfems are gnc lesbians.

I don't think gnc lesbians even make up a big enough percentage of the female population for that to be true.

Anyway from when I used to lurk on r/gendercritical it seemed to me most of them referenced having husbands/boyfriends/male casual affair partners, seemed like most of them were straight to me.

R/gendercritical is not a radical feminist forum though. Most people were really there just to talk about the TQ issue because there aren't a lot of spaces to discuss it if you aren't a christian or religious. Christians, for example, have their own churches and groups to talk vividly about the matter. However, anywhere else in the general non-religious mainstream will likely get you cancelled.

Some women may also use the opportunity to talk about sexism issues that affect them, since the forum is also designed for it, but that is very different from being an actual radical feminist.

Perhaps it wasn't a strictly radfem forum, but it did seem like the majority of posters there were radfems

Most females are not radfems. But anyway you could be right, I'm talking about the younger ones on Tumblr

I don't think most lesbians are radfems either though, is the thing. If there has been an increase in young lesbians turning to radical feminism, it's probably in response to all the TQ+ shit, as OP mentioned.
