oops sorry cross post - she is a total STAR

gardenbird48 · 04/07/2020 14:24

she is a star - and now she's getting grief for excluding transwomen by mentioning ovaries because they haven't got any Confused even though she was just responding to a transwoman who was jealous of her ovaries...!! Wonder how the march is going today - is it raining in London too?

Mumoftwoyoungkids · 04/07/2020 14:16

If JK starts talking about brains next the poor fucker is really going to feel marginalised, haha

Love love love J K

Thisismytimetoshine · 04/07/2020 14:09

The logic is tragic, actually scary, really... You're talking about your ovaries; I don't have any so I AM EXCLUDED!!!

JK's just made a second tweet, in reply to her own...

...pointing out how she isn't allowed to talk about her own ovaries, because of the people who are offended for not having them.

It continues! Really glad the guy is a real one.

JKRismyhero · 04/07/2020 13:22

I loooooove her

MorrisZapp · 04/07/2020 13:20

Screenshot of her tweet please?

Redshoeblueshoe · 04/07/2020 13:18

She's so dignified.
I ❤️ JKR

BingBongSong · 04/07/2020 13:12

I picked this up because Baddiel retweeted her!

Dances · 04/07/2020 13:07

I love the Ickabog illustrations and her responses to them.

I mean, sorry, ahem, the nasty witch gave away a book to children during Covid and is donating the proceeds of the published book to charity. And engaging with her readers' feedback and illustration contributions? Evil cow!

NoSquirrels · 04/07/2020 12:58

I wonder why she always does it at the weekend?

Because during the week she’s at her day job, promoting her children’s book The Ickabog and sending lovely messages to children. If she tweets anything controversial then, the hounds of hell descend on her Twitter timeline and posy awful, inappropriate stuff where kids might see it. It still happens in the week anyway (seriously, some is downright disgusting) but she obviously doesn’t wish to encourage them in ‘working hours’.

TheShoesa · 04/07/2020 12:57

She is a magnificent woman.

I love how each time the twitter mob savage her, she pauses, then throws another comment into the mix. No fucks given. Another email, or possibly a real life sent through the post letter heading in her direction soon, I think.

And for those who might not know, Posie is selling 'I [heart] JK Rowling' t shirts. A slightly less blatant show of which side of the fence you sit, if the AHF ones are a bit too direct...

As if a man or transwoman could cope with
Period Pains or Childbirth!
What about a cervical smear madam...ha!
Here do have my heavy periods etc

ahumanfemale · 04/07/2020 12:30

She's brilliant!

I want to win the lottery so I can join her very publicly, because I definitely would. I actually bought a ticket for this reason!

LOVED the Jamila Jameel prediction too! 😂

SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito · 04/07/2020 12:26

Well, the founder of mugglenet. He's not involved anymore, I think.

NotTerfNorCis · 04/07/2020 12:24

Mugglenet stands with JKR.

But only after hours of stomach churning and frantic pacing.

It's about time our TRA monitors asked themselves: 'are we the baddies?'

Cherrysummerfruits · 04/07/2020 12:22

The comments are getting better!

I hate this sexism.

EdgeOfACoin · 04/07/2020 12:21

She's coming out fighting. I'm so glad.

Cheesecake53 · 04/07/2020 12:21

I love her so much!

Anonymum263 · 04/07/2020 12:20

Oh, very well done.

TERFLurve · 04/07/2020 12:13

The best thing to come out of this is that JK has exposed all this to so many. I thought I was clued up, but embarrassingly, I had no idea that there was all this hatred towards women wanting to keep their spaces safe, and women themselves. Now thanks to JK and Mumsnet, I and many of my friends are informed and fighting back. There is so much more support out there now and it does feel like the tide is beginning to turn.
