To clarify, the pictured poster Caroline Kwan is an ally, not a TERF. The TERFs referred to in the title are the ones ‘protecting a very specific idea of what a woman is’

    You will certainly cause a lot of “disruption” by berating a stranger for calling the NBA the NBA in a random thread on Lemmy. The revolution has begun and you’ve already won!

        Or Brittney Griner’s misogyny. Not only did she do the exact same thing I did, she published it in a book.

        Does anyone hate women more than Brittney Griner?

            She did exactly the same thing I did, except she published it in a book. By your own logic, she’s a misogynist.

            I can’t help your logic.

              Are you a woman?

              She’s a victim because she’s a women. You’re a perpetrator because you’re a man. Within the patriarchal system.

                Why does that matter?

                Women are not being misogynistic when they call the men’s team “The NBA” but men are? How does that even work?

                  Because of the patriarchy. That’s why Feminism exists. When a woman within a patriarchy uses misogynistic terms, she’s a victim. When a man does it, he’s a perpetrator. That’s also why women were legally forgiven for reactive violence but men were punished for using the same methods and it was not considered reactive.

                  That was in the 80s. Spousal rape was legal in many states then. How is this news to you? How uneducated are you?

                    Sorry… because spousal rape was legal in the 1980s in many states, Brittney Griner is a victim when she calls the men’s team “The NBA” in her book?

                    You are making absolutely no sense.
