A call to cis women: Don't let queers down!

The article discusses the shifting focus of feminism among cis women, arguing that their attention has increasingly turned inward due to rising conservative influence and threats against women’s rights. The author critiques the growing binary approach within feminist discourse, which appears to downplay the importance of queer issues and trans rights. While acknowledging the legitimate concerns around gender-based violence and the resurgence of traditional gender roles, the piece warns against neglecting the heightened risks faced by LGBTQ+ communities. It highlights the overlap between conservative forces opposing abortion rights and those promoting anti-queer policies, suggesting that these groups aim to control personal freedoms and suppress non-heteronormative lifestyles.
