They are called that by queer-identified transwomen that believe violence against lesbians that do not have sex with them is called for. Is that what you mean when you say that you have known TERFS for a long time and don't like them? TERF is a slur.

I hadn't heard the term before JDeere's article. If the energy that people use to tear others down was collected and applied to positive ventures, do you (general collective you) realize how far we could go as a nation and humankind?

Hold up, folks.
I am getting messages and reports because several folks are very concerned about where this discussion is going...and I am too. Just to be clear, this thread is a thread for Trans News and Issues. It does not feel safe or fair to have the "TERF" discussion in this thread since that term is being used to describe people who largely identify as Lesbians. From my own studies, the usage of "TERF" has denoted Lesbians who are "Trans-exclusionary" from their brand of "Radical Feminism", meaning, they DO NOT view MtF's as "real" women. One could make the argument ( and I have seen it in multiple venues) that not seeing Trans women as "real" women is the real reason that Trans-exclusionists don't want to have sex with them. Do we all agree that nobody of any gender owes sex to another person? God, I hope so. If not, get the fuck off of my site. I would absolutely be down for having an in-depth, heated, radical discussion about the term "TERF" in the Red Zone, but not here. Carry on. Thank you, Angie

I'm leaving an link today to some exceptional news coverage and latest articles found on the Huffington Post website. Lots of interesting stories about how current day activists and LGBTQ pioneers are shaping progress for others in the Trans community and how Matthew Shepherd policy advocates play an critical role in furthering social progress for all.
