Trans folk tend to really hate these people not because they are inflicting violence against them, but simply because they are honest with themselves and how they see things.

TERF

An abbreviation of "trans exclusionary radical feminist"

Someone, usually a white cisgender woman, who believes trans women shouldn't be a part of feminism or included in feminist movements because they don't have female reproduction systems or primary sex characteristics.
Terfs often belive that transgender women are all predatory older men, and that transgender men are all confused teenage girls. In the act of excluding trans women from feminism, they also tend to exclude infertile cis women and cis women who have had a hysterectomy or mastectomy.
Terfs also tend to fit themselves into swerf (sex work exclusionary radical feminist), gender critical, and misandrist identifications

Terf

Trans-Exclusionary-radical-feminist
A group of women that, belong to a vagina cult and believe that if you were a woman and are now a man, you are disgusting and have taken the easy way out of avoiding the oppression of the patriarchy. Or if you are a man that is now a woman you are similarly disgusting and are trying to infiltrate the cult. They are the main reason feminism has such a bad name.
Person 1: “hey Timmy you look sad what’s up

Timmy: “ I went to a feminism rally was verbally assaulted by this random woman who said I couldn’t be here because I have ‘betrayed my fellow sisters’”

Person 1: “wow they must be a real piece of shit judging you for doing something they should be supportive of”

Timmy: “it was just a terf though so I can’t let it affect me”

Terf

A bigoted and hate filled slur against woman, pushed by trans men who feel repressing women will help their cause. TERF: trans exclusionary radical feminist. The mere term is ignorant of the fact that it is not radical to stand up for actual women and it is ridiculous to exclude women for men trying to appear as a woman. It demonstrates the entitled and clueless nature of current western youth.
That woman is such a terf thinking women’s rights apply to them but not men attempting to become female.
