Category talk:Pejorative terms for women

Deletion of mild or questionable examples
I'm probably putting my other foot in the grave with this, but I tried deleting examples that were unreferenced (or strongly lacking in them) and arguably just subtle sexism at best. And they were all reverted with no explanation by an admin. I mean there's categories like 'sexuality and gender based slurs' and 'chauvinism' for things like this. Having entries like crone, hag, harpy, battleaxe, and even angry black woman (which is likely more racist than misogynist) only negate the meaning of what misogynistic slurs really are.

Terf
Terf which originally was an acronym for Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist is changing meaning to be used as an insult that only applies to women, regardless of their feminist position, or views on trans people. For example yesterday I was called a “fucking Terf” in the same tone as f*g c*t.

The context me sharing that I am a cis-female lesbian who is exclusively attracted to other cis-female lesbians. I researched this further to find this is now common usage.

I would like to propose that “terf” has now become a way to insult women (there is no equivalent for men) regardless of the subjects view of trans people.

Apart from my own personal experience, what evidence is needed for Wikipedia to establish that this new usage is transforming it into a generic prerogative term for women? Jennpublic (talk) 06:12, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

The Wikipedia editors' personal experiences can not be used as sources. We need reliable, published sources making the claim that Terf has become a misogynistic insult. Dimadick (talk) 08:22, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
