[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I really don’t understand what’s offensive about that statement. I have seen friends’ occasionally post about blocking her and how she’s transphobic. Because I was never a Harry Potter fan I had never followed her very closely. It’s very disappointing to now read her statement and know this is what all the anger was about. Really? Seriously? [/quote] She literally denies the existence of trans people. She will not acknowledge that gender =/= sex and a trans woman in her mind is not a woman. [/quote] The vast majority of people do not believe trans women are literally women. They are trans, and that is fine. They can dress how they want, present as they want, have surgeries and get the hormones they want. But that doesn’t make them literally women, and that’s essentially all that JK has said. [/quote]
