    There are indeed radical feminists, but they're a very tiny fringe, generally associated with trans-phobia and looked down upon by the rest of the movement.

I think the whole idea that radical feminism is some how bad is pretty silly. Granted there are feminists whose ideas I don't agree with, but groups like "Pussy Riot" and the "Guerrilla Girls" ( ) could easily be seen as "radical" and I have no problems with their messages whatsoever.

"Radical feminism" seems to now be a coded way of saying "I don't like how these women are presenting their message, so their message is wrong"

I know that people try to defend feminism by separating the "radical feminists" from the "everyday feminists" but I would not be so quick to do so.
