My understanding is that they pretend that Islamists don't commit rapes. If someone can throw them off balance enough that they can't deny the rapes, they then say that "these actions arose in a context." Typically, this is about the rapist being a man who the "feminist" regards as "marginalized" and /or "of color" (always unless he is "trans"), and "oppressed."
The women who take these positions are not "feminists," but they do claim to be. I find that they very quickly will verbally attack and bully girls and women who express opposition to physical coercion or violence by "marginalized" men if those men are "of color" or "trans." That is not the behavior of a feminist, it is the behavior of a woman in a misogynist system like Islam.
I am well versed in Islam and prefer to use the official version of the Quran in English produced by the Saudi Government. I have also learned to read it in Arabic of course and committed enough to memory to participate in Salat.
The only quibble I'd have, not that it is an important one, is that they are indeed feminists; dominating, putting down and bullying weaker women has always been a core feature of feminism. Alexandra Kollontay noted this a century ago.
I wonder how such feminists feel about Islamic rape culture.

Doublethink.
we are living through it again. Will we hear the warnings?
I went into this over 10 years ago.

Cool, thank you.
Sandra Pinches has it right.

I think that is important: bullying & brainwashing other women into disdaining natural fulfillment in favor of an ersatz maleness.
Look at all of the piling on against Hannah Neeleman, for instance. Just another cult.
