Good article. Radical feminism is materialist, not “essentialist.” Sex is a biological material reality, upon which oppressive social structures have been built. The oppression of women is based upon our reproductive capacities. It is the gender ideologues who are the essentialist ones, claiming some mystical inner essential nature to which they give the name “woman”, even though it is completely indefinable, except by stereotypes, and has no grounding in material reality or in the human body.
