If you look at the details of what left-wing feminist organisations like FiLiA are advocating for and their motivations for doing so, it is very different to right-wing conservatives.

For instance, on "sex work", FiLiA favours the Nordic Model, where the punters are criminalised and prostituted women are offered support to help their exit from this abusive industry.

You generally will not find conservatives arguing for that.

Similarly for "trans", the motivation is to prevent the erasure of much-needed single-sex spaces, services and other provisions for women and girls.

Compare to conservatives who look at it mostly from the angle of men should be masculine and women should be feminine. Obviously not something that organisations like FiLiA would agree with, at all.
