A cis female journalist who wrote an article supporting trans rights and calling for “more inclusive” feminism has unsurprisingly been swarmed by TERFs. Writer Kathryn Bromwich penned an article published in The Guardian on June 18 in which she argued that cis women should be trans allies. Bromwich wrote, "If women are united by anything and there are 3.8 billion of us, so there’s going to be little common ground. It is the risk of sexual violence, from which no woman is safe, especially not trans women." She added that feminism should aim to become more inclusive rather than less, and welcome "trans men and women as well as non-binary, queer, intersex, and gender-nonconforming people." While Bromwich’s article received a lot of support, anti-trans commenters were quick to reply, with some claiming that the term ‘cis’ is offensive and that trans women should not be allowed in female spaces. Shortly after her article was published, Bromwich’s Twitter page had been spammed with hate, in what amounted to an intimidation campaign. Journalist Elle Hunt wrote, "So refreshing to see a column on trans rights, that finally represents my position and the position of the overwhelming majority of women I know." A June survey of 30 countries found that Britain is among the least supportive of trans people.
