You think it's not feminist to say the feminist movement fails too often at addressing intersectionality?

feminism is the unfortunately necessary struggle against the systematic and historical oppression of women because of the body they are born in from the moment they are born, it's the opposite of privilege. intersectionality is the recognition of how this relates to other forms of oppression such as ableism, homophobia, transphobia, ageism, lookism and racism and how women belonging to these groups are particularly affected. intersectionality is more than just trans specific struggles. you think that of all feminist and intersectional issues, trans specific issues are still too rarely talked about, while half of all discussions in feminist spaces online and offline have been adressing trans issues and advocating for trans rights for years? and that it's privileged to talk about topics which affect all cis women - of all any intersection but trans women - at all?
