The TERFs and the Radfems aren't really new. For a long time, and I mean since the 1960s, they formed the backbone of femenism and arguably had to be since it was much harder to be taken seriously as a feminist back then. You really needed, back then, to be bringing something that made a big statement in order to be taken seriously. They just never were as shrill as this because, ironically enough like the MRAs are for men today, they were automatically taken seriously when they spoke and accepted as the baseline.

Now that they are not, the ones still around from the 60s are pretty damn shrill because they feel they are not being given the same level of authority they used to have or same level of respect, and the newer ones (who are just essentially bigots looking for a cause to indulge their assholery in) are angry they missed the boat in being able to get their way. Feminism has evolved, and those that didn't keep up as it gradually became more inclusive and less combative are being left behind and are pretty damn shrill about it all.

When someone uses the word "shrill" when talking about women's views (as you do twice, I note), I know right then and there how much value to place on that person's statements. A clue - it's a very round number.
