   Victoria Smith is absolutely brilliant.
   
   Regarding feminists who vote Republican (or other conservative parties where they live) because of the extreme misogyny we see from liberals in connection with the transgender movement:

   "Donald Trump doesn’t know what a woman is, either"
   
   > “Grab ‘em by the pussy” misogynists make no distinction between sex (as a biological reality) and gender (as a social hierarchy). The two are completely intertwined — just as they are for trans activists. Right-wing men are not going to one day “forget” their own gender ideology and just see women for who we are, in all our diversity. To them, we are “protected” whether we like it or not. When trans activist Andrea Long Chu defines “as female any psychic operation in which the self is sacrificed to make room for the desires of another”, Trump is in total agreement. He’s all for essentialised feminine submission. He merely takes a dim view of male people who base their whole identities on a sexualised version of it (if he thinks of them at all).

     @taylan Isn't transgender nonessentialist feminine submission better for women than the right-wing essentialist form, since women can just "change their gender"?

     @taylan It's based on choice, rather than biology.
