  1. Putting aside Rowling and her ability to put trans people into everything, that policy is fucking terrible and needs abolishing quickly. I’m not a woman so never had to deal with period pain but know people who have had had it bad and yeah how are you meant to provide proof that you’re in pain.

  2. My gud she is actually obsessed isn’t she?
    She thinks “I need to speak out with a good take about a topic thats important… How can I also make it about trans people being bad?”

  3. Why does the article have to revolve around what the wizard lady says? If this is an issue confront the issue.

    I fucking hate the tabloid media so much. Like nothing matters unless a celebrity talks about it.

  4. I’m fully with JK on this. Homosexual? Fine. Lesbian? Fine. Bi? Fine. Trans is really where I personally draw the line.

  5. I worked in secondary schools for a decade.

    Nobody ever asked girls to prove they were in pain. Ever. She’s a total serpent.

  6. And here I thought that Rowling was actually advocating for women and girls for once rather than just using it as an excuse to attack trans people. But nope. Still about her hatred of trans people.
