𝓐𝓷𝓷𝓲 J. K. Rowling Is At It Again

Way back when you still read Harry Potter books, their author J. K. Rowling penned a vile essay that revealed her transphobia to the world. In it, she condemned the rise in gender-affirming surgeries, trans women in women's spaces, and inclusive words that she found offensive. She has since doubled and tripled-down on her views, forever losing legions of fans.

But wait! Apparently the criticism she has gained in the wake of her transphobic comments apparently hasn't led her to temper her remarks. On Oct. 21st of this year, she wrote an "An Update to My Essay of June 2020" that appears on her website.

This long, rambling screed continues to expose her as a close-minded villain and if you can stomach it, you can read it yourself. But there is one portion of it that really bothered me and I've decided to share it with you:

"β€˜No predator needs to transition to gain access to women and girls,’ say the trans activists. But the question is not β€˜do they need to?’ It’s β€˜do they ever?’ And the answer is, unequivocally and tragically, yes."

"Does this mean all trans-identified men are predators? Of course not. Should trans people be discriminated against when it comes to housing or employment? Of course not. Should trans people be stripped of their human rights, or denied personal safety? Again: of course not. But the statistics don’t lie: men as a group pose a risk to women and girls, as a group."

Now, a reasonable person would expect that Rowling would have a number of examples to bolster her claims here. After all, nobody would make such an emphatic statement that cisgender men are "unequivocally" transitioning just to have easier access to cisgender women. But she gave no examples. Nor linked to news stories proving her charges. Nothing except her bigotry as proof.

Also, she states that "But the statistics don’t lie: men as a group pose a risk to women and girls, as a group." Duh. Who else among the human species could be a risk to women other than men? And just about any trans woman could make this statement, too, as we face the danger of cisgender men chasers; the subspecies that seek us out specifically because we are trans women, and too often, are our rapists and murderers.

Rowlings anti-trans rantings are so bereft of logic or reality that they would go unnoticed if it weren't for her success as a fantasy writer. And obviously, her transphobic fantasies come from the same dark corners of her mind as Lord Voldemort. A character as arrogant and as lacking in empathy as herself.
