J. K. Rowling: “A pantomime horse is not a horse. A hot dog is not a dog. Crow’s feet are not feet. Trans women are not women”

J.K. Rowling wrote for years about accepting those who are different. Today she is one of the strongest voices against trans women, and that contradiction has cost her dearly.

Several actors who grew up acting in her saga no longer speak to her. One called her a “despicable loser”. Another posted an obscene gesture alongside the trans flag. A third said she left a dark mark on the franchise that shaped them.

None of that stopped her. Rowling kept publishing, kept funding the legal case she was backing, and celebrated when she won. It was not a mistake or a bad day: it is the same argument she has maintained for years. 🧙‍♀️⚡
