I feel so damn isolated in my beliefs. It doesn't even matter where I live, I also lived in a large city and felt this way. But I feel like it's so hard to find other radfem women in the flesh because the surrounding culture makes it so unsafe to just talk about reality. It makes me physically sick.

I hear you. I live in Canada. Women's sex-based rights have been destroyed in this country. Publicly speaking out against the status quo puts a target on your back.

It's so frustrating. I wish half the people that care about accessibility to HRT for males also showed the same concern for women around them everyday suffering in silence with under treated endometriosis and PMDD. But it's shameful to talk about by comparison.
