the_fantastic_ms_foxOften, we encounter two women's organizations. One's activism acknowledges and supports the opinions and rights of intersex people, sex workers, trans people, intersex people, and same-sex abuse survivors. The other's does not.
The inclusive organization points out the failures of the organization whose idea of "women" only includes "women who agree with us."
The latter rebuffs these criticisms. They claim that the inclusive organization is being "divisive."
After all, we are all on the same side. We both support (some) women's rights. But for you to criticize us, is to slow down women's rights.
This is like an invading army claiming that a resisting army, in fighting back, is warmongering.
After all, we are on the same side. We fight for peace. But to fight us is to create war.
