'White middle-class ‘feminists’ have done terrible things,' the professor said
An "intersectional feminist" professor in the United Kingdom claimed that it was "racist" to advocate for spaces exclusively for biological females, according to a research article.
Dr. Helen Clarke is a professor affiliated with Oxford Brookes.
"Helen’s research explores how decolonial feminism can be used to create alternative practices of solidarity, tackling trans-hostility in cis-lesbian communities. She is involved in various feminist projects, working at creating more inclusive and supportive activist environments for all women, non-binary folk and gender diverse people," a biography on the research paper said.
Clarke’s main point in her piece, first reported by the College Fix, attacked assertions that transgender people should be excluded from the LGBT acronym. She specifically calls out an organization called "The LGB Alliance," which seeks to preserve women-only spaces.
The LGB Alliance "argue[s] that some predatory men masquerade as women merely to access these spaces, requiring the exclusion of trans women to protect (cis) women’s safety," Clark said.
Therefore, the "LGB Alliance can be read as (re)producing harmful discourses related to heteronormativity, racism and classism, [and] ultimately, hinder progress towards LGBTQ+ equality," the professor said.

Far too many do.
In a nutshell intersectional feminism is the belief that straight white males caused all of the world’s problems and only progressive females can solve/fix those problems. And all straight white males must be eliminated.
Racism:
Another one of the words liberals use without knowing its meaning…
cis-lesbian? I thought cis meant straight,
Sort of like playing a game with a four year old who keeps changing the rules.
This statement is true.
The question for debate is - what terrible things, exactly?
That’s because they’re brainwashed Marxist trash.
Any questions?
What is meant by intersectional feminism?
Intersectional feminism takes into account the many different ways each woman experiences discrimination. “White feminism” is a term that is used to describe a type of feminism that overshadows the struggles women of color, LGBTQ women and women of other minority groups face.
In other words, hate Whitey, even white liberal feminists.
Fun to watch the enemy eat its own.
“But amazing to me how many women support men masquerading women”
You really need to talk to Biden voters more.
Try explaining to them that if a man removes his privates and takes hormones he won’t be able to give birth to babies because he’s still not a woman.
You may think I’m trying to be funny but this is a real thing. Not a joke.
amazing how many men are masquerading as females.
Her XX students should buy the shirt Megyn wears. Female….the real thing.
Wear it to class.
Developed by women-of-colour feminists, intersectionality sought to theorise the specific problems experienced by women of colour, problems that often involved racism, sexism, classism and heterosexism, and that were often overlooked by single-axis theories. While the term ‘intersectionality’ was coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw in 1989, many intersectionality theorists root their framework in the nineteenth-century writings of black women like Sojourner Truth, Anna Julia Cooper, and others, who sought to describe the exclusions and oppressions faced by black women on account of their gender and race. Intersectionality continued to be developed throughout the twentieth century by theorists who variously identified themselves as black womanists, black feminists, Chicana feminists, hispanas, xicanistas, and sister/outsiders. In her landmark work, Black Feminist Thought, Patricia Hill Collins describes intersectionality theory as an ‘analysis claiming that systems of race, social class, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, nation, and age form mutually constructing features of a social organisation,
In simple form, old-school marxists thought everything was based on class - workers vs. capitalists.
The first Neo-marxists, who (like parasites leaving the host) left Germany when Hitler took power, had started to develop ideas that "oppression" existed in many other forms besides just economic - social, racial, gender, sexuality, etc. etc..
These theories certainly did not start with "black American females," but they are who run America's institutions now.
It means a woman who needs to have a baseball bat applied to her forehead with a full home run swing behind it.
Basically, it is way of saying how white people having relations with people we like excludes those that we don’t have anything in common with.
We are supposed to give up our ability to be productive and talk to everybody.
To which, all we white females say is, “Shaddup!”
They will all be living in caves in 3 generations, they need men to keep everything working. What a passel of dolts.
Cis means not trans. I remember Cisalpine Gail and Transalpine Gaul from which side of the Alps is was (from the Roman perspective “this side” vs. “the other side”)
Any of these newspeak leftist terms can just be called “insane”. Insane professor works as well as intersectional feminist professor.
