What is a TERF? "TERF" supposedly stands for "trans exclusionary radical feminist" but the term is used as a slur against anyone who disagrees with a proponent of transgender ideology.
We're documenting the hateful rhetoric directed at lesbians, radical feminists, gender critical feminists, and others on the internet and beyond.
All posts must exhibit "TERF" being used as a slur or harassment or violence against so-called "TERFs."
Please upload images or archived links. It may be appropriate to link to original sources in the comments, but this circle is an archive and we don't want examples disappearing when pages on other sites are removed.
Inspired by the website TERF Is A Slur.

Other circles specializing in receipts:
-
/o/ItsAFetish: documenting examples of fetishism (primarily autogynephilia) within the trans community and discussing implications from a feminist perspective
-
/o/TransLogic: a radical feminist circle documenting the various illogical, incorrect, misogynistic, racist, and otherwise caustic rhetoric spouted from TRAs themselves
-
/o/Cancelled: cataloguing the attempts (generally by those in some position of power) to silence those who speak out against the queercult
"The trans-invented term of TERF invites violence against radical feminists and other women who won’t get with the transgender program. Their branding of women as TERFs is a form of trans hate speech that attempts to shame radical women and provoke compliance with trans activists’ demands." –Janice G Raymond, Doublethink

If only they'd Google it - so often I see people ask and get a reply like "TERFs are evil facists who want to genocide LGBTQIA+ people", so they say 'oh, OK, those are bad people then'. It's like when someone asks what JK Rowling said that was so bad and instead of actual quotes, they get link to some YouTube video that creatively reinterprets what she said to mean the worst possible thing.
Yeah the lack of curiosity of some people continues to disappoint me. That said, I think the more times the term is used the more people look into it themselves. And I see more push back these days. When someone posts a link to a video there are often times people who will encourage them to look into it for themselves instead.
