Watching TERFs slavering in joy over two women—who were born women and “socialized” as women—be publicly humiliated and have their private medical issues exposed, all for not performing femininity correctly, tells you everything about their supposed “feminism.”
The term we use is TERF, for “Trans-Exclusive Radical Feminist” — but they’re not really feminists at all, are they. Maybe we ought to call them FINO instead — “Feminists In Name Only”.
Bunch of weirdos.

As a cis woman who has been "clocked" due to my height, shoe size, hands, etc. since middle school, this was always where their brand of hatred disguised as feminism was going. And it's so much worse for women of color. If you're not Donna fucking Reed, you're not a "real woman" to them.
If Algeria had sent a transwoman to the Olympics, twice, we would have heard about it long before someone with headgear issues forfeited a fight.
