DC Comics has just added TERF to its lexicon in the latest issue of Green Lantern.
The word – an acronym for trans-exclusionary radical feminist – is used to describe people who identify as feminist but who opposed including trans women in spaces reserved for women. Writer Viv Smythe has been credited with coining the term in 2008 after she wrote a short series of blog posts that used the acronym.
Now, DC Comics featured the term TERF in the last issue written by an LGBT+ author. This is the first use of the word in DC Comics history, as reported by
Bleeding Cool, which asserts that “some consider it a slur”.
