Thanks for clearing that up for me! I told someone that I find JKR inspirational and they bit my head off, so was a little lost! But no where does it sound like JK is transphobic.
Also apologises in my original question where I put "trans comments", I wrote it in a bit of a rush and I realise I could of put it in a better way
No need for apologies at all, I only realised reading back afterwards when I put “trans comments” that it sounded sarcastic, I didn’t mean it to be at but it was too late to edit! My own defence is that I inserted it last minute in a rush too as the original post looked odd just starting with a quote
I think the majority of people that are condemning her, and people who are fans of hers/say they agree with her haven’t read anything behind the headlines and the spin articles** and so have come to that conclusion.
**Which, thinking about it... might not actually be their fault... I mean, people often get told to “educate themselves” (I hate that sneering phrase) but when article after article are saying the same thing, especially when the story broke, it’s not illogical that they’d come away with that conclusion, if they had did just that and “educated themselves”. There’s more of a shift in recent times on how it’s reported but the majority are still spinning it. It’s only when people get linked to what she actually said that some start questioning the supposed transphobia.
