It's a whole thing where British feminism has historically been confined to the white middle income professional class and never spread in to the working class or developed intersectionality the way us feminisms did. It resulted in a very narrow feminism that never fully shed the prejudices of the 1890s. Things have gotten better but there remains a cadre of British feminism adherents who loudly maintain a reductive and bigoted feminism.
