Every time she comes up it’s always underlined that she is super transphobic. However, it’s never been really clear to me what things she has said to acquire such a status. Whenever this is asked there is usually someone linking some two hour YouTube theory about goblin or a massive article that always feels quite tangential. If one is to be so notorious; wouldn’t it be a little bit more overt?
What did she say?
No, lol. She said that there are two sexes, men and women. Which is true. She also said that women are being attacked in their own locker rooms by men pretending to be women, which is also true.
No, it is not true. Most people are male or female, but some people are simply born differently. There are plenty of people who have more than just two sex chromosomes.
Besides that, transgender issues are by definition about gender, not about sex. Gender is socially constructed, like all other aspects of culture. It is a different thing than sex.
The issue isn’t that it’s untrue. The issue is that stirring hysteria on infrequent issues (people abusing trans) to prevent larger issues (trans acceptance) from being solved is counterproductive
Whether it’s counter productive or not was not the question. Please don’t move the goalposts.
Ok sure, the question is whether or not she’s posted anything explicitly hateful, and the answer is a resounding no. She has made Tweets that concern troll the LGBT community, but nothing explicitly hateful: https://archive.is/WzSwy
My comment was not directed at J.K. Rowling so much as it was directed at you. You’re calling something “true” and pretending that the argument is done and won, but it’s only a misleading fact out of context.
