I argue that they are not. The feminist movement is the struggle of the sex class women against the sex class men, while the trans-inclusionary movement is the struggle of the sex/gender nonconforming against the sex/gender binary. The two movements have different analyses of injustice, different goals, different enemies, and different friends. And, I argue, with trans women’s demand for recognition as women, these movements have come into conflict.}, DOI = {10.63466/jci06010002} }
