Is it sexist to criticize feminism?

[TaraJo]

Like Christianity, feminism has its share of fundamentalists. It is always appropriate to point out the error of fundamentalists. Any right thinking feminist will welcome genuine critique even if they disagree. There is no righteous orthodoxy of feminist thought.

Also like Christianity, if you tell a fundamentalist feminist that she's a fundie, she simply points to another, even more exreme feminist and says "I'm not an extremist; that's an extremist!" And when you do find one who admits to being extremist, like Christians, they argue that their extremism is completely justified.

In my case, "radical feminist" doesn't tend to mean "feminist who is hostile to everything mainstream" but it does mean "feminist who doesn't like transsexuals." No matter how abrasive they are to everyone else or how angry they are, if they aren't transphobic, they won't call themselves radical feminists (or radfems).

Futile the winds.

I have successfully helped 3 lesbian couples through sperm donation over the past 2 years. Do you think they should be able to sue me for child support?

And, for the record, it's happened.
