the way you write your posts makes them really hard to read
Also, you're strawmanning everything I said if you're framing me as "finding separatism offensive" or am "attacking it". What did I say to attack it? I think separatism is great. It's just not an inherent part of radical feminism (evidenced by the fact that separatism is its own thing, this is not new, both have been around for DECADES)
Gender critical and radical feminism are stepping stones to separatism, that's GLARINGLY obvious. Presenting the purest form of feminism as the only viable one makes zero sense when women are socialized to hold internalized misogyny. It pretty much guarantees a strong, negative knee-jerk reaction from most women who are presented it. Even radical feminism on its own is too far a leap for most women, there are a ton who only got here once they started peaking from the trans issues, and that led them to questioning all male behavior, then porn, then makeup, etc.
Nothing you're saying is wrong, but expecting every woman to automatically overcome a lifetime of socialization to automatically believe what YOU believe or you'll yell at them is not the way. It just makes the community shittier while accomplishing nothing of value.
