See, I don't even know that I would call her a radical feminist so much as a "reactionary" feminist. In my day (I know, I know, "Do go on, Grandma!"), the radical feminist did want to set up "Herland" (see Charlotte Perkins Gilman) and have absolutely nothing to do with men but this woman wants to make women superior to men, to take control from them. I can't see how that would be any better societally than the old "you can only beat your wife if the stick isn't any bigger than your thumb" chauvinists. Then again, I'm an old school feminist who thinks that people should be free to live up to their potential, no matter who they are or who they love. Silly me.
