A portmanteau of astroturf and TIRF (trans inclusionary radical feminism). Astroturf refers to usually when organizations will mass produce support for some issue and masquerade it as mass public opinion even though its only being pushed by a small minority. Astrotirf refers to how some feminists pretend that alot of women support the concept of transgenderism in society (sports, bathrooms) when in reality, only a minority of women actually support such radical changes, as evident from surveys and polling.
Friend 1: I can't believe my high school is allowing biological males in girls bathrooms and girls sports, they're pretending that the girls are ok with it, but we secretly are very uncomfortable with this.
Friend 2: the staff are literally using the astrotirf method. This is some Loudoun county type shit.

Schrödinger’s Feminist are a specific type of feminist who have a double standard. Anything in society where men hold dominance is evidence of an oppressive tyrannical patriarchy and men should be demonized, meanwhile anywhere where women hold the upper ground (college education, etc) is proof women are superior and thus should be encouraged. Success of women is praised while decline of men is laughed at. Notable examples include Liza Mundy and Hanna Rosin, some may also include Elizabeth Badinter.
Friend 1: can you believe this article? It says that male dominance in engineering and computer science is a sign of discrimination while boys struggling in school is a sign of male incompetence.
Friend 2: That's how a Schrödinger’s Feminist talks, dude.

Schrödinger's feminism is a type of feminism that has a hypocritical double standard. In it, anything in the world where men have dominance is declared proof of an oppressive tyrannical patriarchy, whereas places where women have dominance (education) is seen as proof that men are inferior. Likewise, men's failures are laughed at while women's successes are applauded. Men's struggles are dismissed as their own fault or even something they deserve. Male led societies are evil while female led societies are justified. Notable purveyors of this ideology include Liza Mundy and Hanna Rosin, and to a small extent also Elizabeth Badinter.
Friend 1: I really feel like my gender studies class is super biased. They claim that men running things is evil but at the same time if women were atop the hierarchy it would be justified when things are reversed.
Friend 2: Schrödinger's feminism is basically what your gender studies class is indoctrinating you guys with. It's hypocrisy at the highest level.
