JK new post on her reasons for writing about gender

Naomi "death recorded" Wolf, the non-historian who tried to write a history book, who when it was pointed out to her (live on air by a specialist in 19th century history) that "death recorded" meant "death sentence commuted to imprisonment" simply doubled down on her mistaken interpretation.

She isn't the brightest bulb.

Oh what a surprise that Naomi Wolf can't even define her most basic terms

Husband should have a question mark there.

Enormouscroc There is absolutely no discongruence between sympathising for transgender people and not wishing to have women's rights essentially abolished by the GRA. This is the lie that is pushed to shame women into compliance.

I have emailed JK to tell her I love her. Well to say thank you anyway. Professions of love might be a bit too weird.

I also emailed my MP (Scotland). No idea how that is going to go down. Suspect I'll get a lecture that TWAW... but meh. 🤷‍♀️

Still not gone full Facebook share. Still thinking about it.

Dances could you screenshot from the fragrant Aidan C? I think my only ever interaction with him was to like some tweets of his a few years back (before he discovered the tra agenda) but I appear to be blocked

Naomi Wolf is confused about what a woman is (no surprise there) and doesn't know the difference between sex and gender.

"If sex isn't real, the lived reality of women globally is erased." Such a reductive view of women's "lived reality." And there is no fixed "truth" about "what sex is." Views of female gender have changed over centuries.

"What message are female children taking from all this? The values they'd better not dare breach don't include them."

Fortunately Stephanie from Transgender Trend was on the show to say exactly that to this headmaster, and to tell him he's on the side of the bullies. He denied all this of course and kept saying that she wasn't the right role model.

No woman is good enough for these shitty little men.

Thanks Datun.
I'm being drawn to task over supporting a medical professional for sharing JKs letter

Perfect thank you! .

Do you mean India Willoughby. India has gone the whole hog, all possible surgeries etc. I think India resents that others can just turn up and self ID without doing sweet FA.

How do you phrase that question; why are tw w without saying anything sexist..?

Do you mean how you define the word woman without resorting to sexist stereotypes?

Because it's just that. If transwomen are women, you need to define the word woman in that sentence.

And if it's not adult human female, of or denoting the sex who bear eggs, then what is it?

I don't think you'll have to ask anything more leading than that.

What you generally get in reply is a disagreement about the definition adult human female, due to intersex, and then you lose the will to live and open the wine.

Because they can't actually answer your specific question without being sexist.

The point at which they refuse to answer question is the point at which you know they can't, and you can thankfully leave the conversation (taking what little is left of the wine with you).

Long time lurker on FWR.

So moved and very, very grateful for what JKR has done for us all.

I have sent en email expressing my gratitude and support.

I would like to send one to Emma Watson aswell but can't find an address. Can anyone help with that?

The Body Shop will also be hearing from me

Yes THAT was a senior moment.

Juggling kids, work and home schooling while keeping up with FWR is taxing on the brain...

I think you are mixing up your Indias, India Willoughby is the trans person. India Knight is the writer.

Oops sorry, entirely different India....

India is full on terf because India fully believes India is full woman.

I think... would India use male toilets?

@Soconfused2020 I feel exactly the same. I just don't understand why what she said would be deemed as transphobic.

I related to her essay in more ways than one... I wept at certain parts... and I scoured the paragraphs for anything that could be taken as an offence to any group of people, and I genuinely couldn't see any.

I can't understand the backlash.

The only way I can make any sense of it is that the trans activists are simply defensive because they know on a deep level that she's right. I'm afraid to say but the aggression of some comments coming from trans activists just remind me of the (general / stereotypical) aggression of men. Is that transphobic of me? Is that a sexist comment? I honestly don't know anymore!

But I am glad the conversation is happening nonetheless. I don't know a lot about it but I do believe women's rights need to be protected from men... All types of men...even if they identify as women. At the same time, genuine transwomen also need to be protected from men. There's a running theme here...

Beardo doing a good summary for us

India Knight has suggested she supports JKR in a cautious way.

Whoop!

@Datun

How do you phrase that question; why are tw w without saying anything sexist..?

I can't get it right in my head.

Jennifer Saunders? Excellent!
