TERF an acronym typically used as a slur or insult against women. It supposedly means "trans-exclusionary radical feminist." However in practice I find that people use it in writing to replace the B-word, the C-word or "feminazi."

How do you address anti-feminist attitudes from that come from people that call themselves liberal or progressive?

I feel with the attacks from the right, particularly with evangelical religion, everyone's like, "Well that's obvious. They hate women, LBGT, racial minorities, science, etc..."

If you address issues on the left it's "Well you're a TERF," or "It's not feminist to advocate equal pay for unequal work," or any other number of attacks on not being sufficiently inter-sectional.

How has this shaped your thoughts on having or raising children (bio, adopted, or fostered)? Do you feel it's something you'd want to do, if only for a short time? Do you feel excluded from the possibility of family life?

I have a general police work question for you.

A person that I have bad history with entered the police force a ways back. I have made it a point of avoid them for years and don't trust them at all. If I were ever pulled over by them or encountered them while they are on duty, is there a procedure by which I can request a second officer to be present?

It must feel isolating to go through something so unexpected.

Has this experience shaped or changed your opinions on death with dignity laws for adults/teens/kids facing terminal illness?
