They post really evil, hateful stuff. I've read some posts from trans women who say that some of the radfems actively seek them and out their identities on blogs, etc.

Like you said in your post below, it is insane that anyone would believe that someone would undergo gender reassignment just to "infiltrate" feminist spaces. It's like some crazy Nazi shit.
