I think the term “radical feminism” means something quite different now than it did 20 years ... but either way it’s really a pejorative label isn’t it? In the “I’m all for feminism but not the radical kind do you know what I mean?” kind of way.
Did you once sit down at a table with a bunch of people who study and research feminism and attempt to explain something about feminism to them? Oh, go on, you did didn’t you? Anyway I hear you about the academic thing but it’s also the forum in which all these issues are debated and teased out and if it’s completely divorced from the practical realities of life then they are maybe just not doing it right.
