[quote=Anonymous]I am deeply saddened by Rowling’s essay, which unfortunately and ironically comes during pride month. In fact, I’m weeping as a write this. I have a wonderful, kind teen trans daughter. Rowling has no idea how hard it is for kids like mine. Suicide and depression are significantly higher, and discrimination, even murder, is always a threat. My daughter wouldn’t choose to be any gender other than the one she was physically born into if it was any kind of choice. It’s just not. She is a girl and that’s that. She is not a threat to women in any way, she just wants to be seen for what she knows in her soul to be - a girl. Even as her mother I cannot claim to understand gender dysphoria, but I do know that I love my child no matter what and I hope she will be happy and safe. Please, for her sake, and the trans community, be compassionate. The struggles they face go far beyond whether a cis woman can’t deal with sharing a bathroom. [/quote]
