That article matter-of-factly states JK Rowling "regularly posts transphobic views online." Pass.
Correct. It's possible I've not seen something truly transphobic written or said by JK Rowling, but what I have seen of her is really just pro-woman and traditionally feminist stuff. I don't think that is transphobic at all.That article matter-of-factly states JK Rowling "regularly posts transphobic views online." Pass.
Shouldn't be a big surprise. His current position on abortion is that banning abortion is OK with him as is abortion on demand until birth. He's essentially said, whatever each state wants to do about abortion is OK by him. While I'm generally a state's rights kind of guy, there should be some reasonable limits. Abortion on demand until birth shouldn't be permitted anywhere in the US. Third trimester abortions should be illegal with the only exception being if necessary for the actual physical health of the mother.https://twitter.com/patriottakes/status/2029589745806844236?s=20

Splicing by trimester is illogical and the refuge of cowards. If it’s a life, the trimester does not matter, if it’s not a life, the trimester does not matter.

Horseshit. You’re a piece of shit liar
“I’m not owed eternal agreement from any actor who once played a character I created. The idea is as ludicrous as me checking with the boss I had when I was twenty-one for what opinions I should hold these days.
Emma Watson and her co-stars have every right to embrace gender identity ideology. Such beliefs are legally protected, and I wouldn’t want to see any of them threatened with loss of work, or violence, or death, because of them.
However, Emma and Dan in particular have both made it clear over the last few years that they think our former professional association gives them a particular right – nay, obligation – to critique me and my views in public. Years after they finished acting in Potter, they continue to assume the role of de facto spokespeople for the world I created…
For the past few years, I’ve repeatedly declined invitations from journalists to comment on Emma specifically, most notably on the Witch Trials of JK Rowling. Ironically, I told the producers that I didn’t want her to be hounded as the result of anything I said…
Like other people who’ve never experienced adult life uncushioned by wealth and fame, Emma has so little experience of real life she’s ignorant of how ignorant she is. She’ll never need a homeless shelter. She’s never going to be placed on a mixed sex public hospital ward. I’d be astounded if she’s been in a high street changing room since childhood. Her ‘public bathroom’ is single occupancy and comes with a security man standing guard outside the door. Has she had to strip off in a newly mixed-sex changing room at a council-run swimming pool? Is she ever likely to need a state-run rape crisis centre that refuses to guarantee an all-female service? To find herself sharing a prison cell with a male rapist who’s identified into the women’s prison?
I wasn’t a multimillionaire at fourteen. I lived in poverty while writing the book that made Emma famous. I therefore understand from my own life experience what the trashing of women’s rights in which Emma has so enthusiastically participated means to women and girls without her privileges.
The greatest irony here is that, had Emma not decided in her most recent interview to declare that she loves and treasures me – a change of tack I suspect she’s adopted because she’s noticed full-throated condemnation of me is no longer quite as fashionable as it was – I might never have been this honest.
Adults can’t expect to cosy up to an activist movement that regularly calls for a friend’s assassination, then assert their right to the former friend’s love, as though the friend was in fact their mother. Emma is rightly free to disagree with me and indeed to discuss her feelings about me in public – but I have the same right, and I’ve finally decided to exercise it.”

Nothing I said was a lie.
Look in the mirror if you want to see a piece of shit who can't respond to people without tossing insults
If what Rowling has been saying is anti-trans, then 85% of this board is also anti-trans.
She should have been a little meaner to those spoiled little twats that will never want for money in their lives, ever again, thanks to her.
Hope is not optimism, which expects things to turn out well, but something rooted in the conviction that there is good worth working for. - Seamus Heaney, Irish poet and likely Hoosier basketball fan.

Does wanting them to seek treatment for their mental illness make one “anti-trans”?
