Yeah - usually it is motivated by trauma. There’s a few that just get radicalized online, but when you do consider how it’s 1 in 4, or 1 in 3… it does make sense.
A lot of TERFism is this frustrated sense of disempowerment, and they seek power by placing themselves in the hierarchy above trans women. Real radical feminism - like not Mary Daly and Janice Raymond’s delusions but Andrea Dworkin and Catherine MacKinnon, rejects this idea that the Y chromosome or “maleness” is inherently evil while recognizing the systems of oppression patriarchy makes us navigate.
