Her remarks were in support of the rights of women to have female-only spaces, and against the linguistic erasure of women.
If that is considered "transphobic" then it just goes to show the misogyny inherent in the trans advocacy movement.
- vacuity 3y agoI'm aware of that. I have some misgivings about some of the beliefs on what pro-trans means. For the purpose of this thread, though, I don't think the nuance matters, since whether Rowling is right or wrong, she'd be heckled by the students all the same. She was just the first person who came to mind for "controversial people that would be heckled".
