‘people with vulvas’

Arguably, etymologically speaking, that’s the literal meaning of “women”.

Credit where credit is due. Rowling's Essay on Sex and Gender is literate, kindly, unapologetic and well-argued.

She may overestimate the mental competence of her critics.

My great Aunt was the first female to graduate from Johns Hopkins Medical School,, was a suffragette, and heavily involved in family violence issues. She was a powerful proponent of Women being Women, profoundly against abortion, intensely Conservative and Christian.

The Achilles heel of the mob is the tenuous nature of their Rainbow Coalition. People who are united only by a common hatred of something are not going to enjoy a long lasting alliance. Look at Stalin and Hitler.

JK Rowling is an interesting case. She’s a rich white liberal... yet she refuses to “say uncle” to the trannies... and the woke mob, including the child actors who became rich and famous on the popularity of her material, tolerates no dissent. At this point, it appears that she’s too rich to care and too principled to yield. What a world... Drew Brees ain’t fit to carry her jockstrap.

She’s a Trotskyite up against the Stalinists.

That single ‘like’ was deemed evidence of wrongthink, and a persistent low level of harassment began.

Incredibly creepy, and now it's all over the place.

Rowling has been labeled by detractors as a “TERF,” or trans-exclusionary radical feminist.

Man, it's impossible to keep up with the terminology.

Rowling is big enough that the crazies can't hurt her. And apparently she is not afraid to stand up to them. Good for her.

You just described Susan B. Anthony. Small wonder why the modern feminist political movement doesn't really mention Anthony--especially since she was a very devout Christian.

It's much simpler to use these six letters to cover all variants of their mental disorder...

P.S.Y.C.H.O.

When you’re personal net worth from your publishing empire exceeds $1B, you can have a lot of fun telling the unwashed masses to “P*ss Off”.

It is going to take a lot more of this kind of pushing back of the mob before things return to normal.

It is simply common sense.

Common sense went out the window a long, long time ago.

Daniel Radcliffe’s apology for the pain Rowling may have caused the LGBT community is a textbook case of mansplaining. It should make true feminists fume—a man stepping in to correct a silly woman who’s menstruated and birthed children, explaining to her what womanhood really means. Instead, he’s cast as the protagonist, and Rowling is the villain.

Radcliffe... what a ... well, you know...
