Not to say that Ton That is or isn't a huge twat, but anarcho-transexual definitely means "her anarchy and transexualism were somehow ideologically linked into a single term." And that makes a lot of sense.

As I understand it, one of the fundamental beliefs of anarchy is that current power structures are wrong and should be abolished. And easily the most dominant power structure in the world is the male/female binary. Pretty freaking easy to see how those could be linked.

Yeah I studied feminism, and yeah a lot of it is BS. But you're totally wrong in your grammar-snob assholery, and there are some useful bits in feminist study.

The only reason anyone ever says "feminist" is because it's a hot-button jingo-laden banner for people to hold up because they want people to look at them. Which is what this person is doing.

And apparently what you're doing. So my grammar "Assholery" aside, you're totally full of shit, and it was pretty fun to smack you around a little bit.

feminist study still has coherency as a discipline in that it is one possible lens on many of the issues caught under the broader umbrella of "gender studies"

Now, I certainly advocate gender studies as the clear and more accurate understanding of the ever-evolving field. But feminist study can still be referred "seriously" to in that:
a. It an occasionally useful outward identifier that people not immersed in the academic field are familiar with, whereas "gender studies" and the like are less so.
b. Big F Feminism has been the greatest historical defining factor of the academic, social and political movement towards greater understanding of issues of sex, gender and sexuality and as such is very much worthy of study for historical context and
c. There are still plenty of people who identify as feminists in that they believe that the proper response to historical patriachy is a focus on achievement, recognition and power for the Woman, as opposed to, for example, a radical disintegration of the historical understanding of gender as binary as might be advocated by other schools of gender studies.

But mainly I think it's cute how you decided to take my post that pointed out how you were completely wrong in your contrived grammar-nazis by making an abtuse, tangentially related personal attack.

My initial reaction, was to ask, rhetorically, "Would you hit That?"

Simpy because the double entendre is too irresistible.

Yes I know it's childish.

Now STFU.
