bunnyeyes Posted August 1 Posted August 1 (edited) It's ridiculous to assume that any woman who doesn't fit a certain camp's aesthetic definition of a woman despite being born with female reproductive organs and XX chromosomes is automatically a man. The overt racism against Taiwanese people calling those defending her CCP liars (despite not being Chinese ffs) is not a good look either. Her ID which cannot be changed begins with the #2 which is for those assigned female at birth only. Edited August 1 by bunnyeyes 1

Arrows Posted August 1 Posted August 1 Can Rowling do this to every country's favorite female athlete so the entire world realizes how ridiculous the anti-trans movement is? 8 1
50thStateofMind Posted August 1 Posted August 1 can rowling crawl in to a hole and never come out again?
byzantium Posted August 1 Posted August 1 I don't want to read all of that because it will probably make me angry and depressed, but I wish all the anti-trans people the worst fortunes. 6
Princess Aurora Posted August 1 Posted August 1 See. This is what transphobia actually does, it hurts cis people too because transphobes also wanna define strict gender roles 2 1
Vegvisir Posted August 1 Posted August 1 Rowling is such a sad, stupid little ogre. It has taken me YEARS to accept that the woman who literally saved my life as a suicidal queer kid in the 90s turned into fulltime TERF troll on twitter. The internet radicalizes a lot of people, and I have no doubt what were once misinformed opinions on gender and trans issues morphed into a full on assault on trans rights and healthcare as she went deeper down the alt-right pipeline. I just thought she was smarter than that. I'll never forgive her - not that she cares, but it's a painful realization for me and millions of other fans that hold Harry Potter dearly. 6
Communion Posted August 1 Posted August 1 Transphobia and misogyny are inherently linked. Supporting transphobia will ultimately lead into the policing of cis women like this. The world as TERFs and sex essentialists want to frame it simply does not align with the rainbow of experiences most humans have. I always recommend Naomi Wu's video on being born female and being a cis woman but raised due to cultural realities as a boy and her story to show how the ideas of sex essentialism and this idea that you can just somehow spot a trans person based on behaviors seemed somehow incongurent with their sex (JK Rowling now basically doing trans-investigations) are flawed and deeply reactionary. 5

jadeabove Posted August 1 Posted August 1 It all comes down to them not finding them sexy enough and proclaiming them men whenever it's convenient to. So infuriating. 1
PrettyHurts Posted August 1 Posted August 1 This is what makes transphobes so scary they literally want to be the gender police and it effects people who aren't even trans
