She really is a brave, wonderful woman. I love her so much.

The negative comments are mostly people who’ve been convinced by all sorts of arguments but they are ok. Just the usual “Just STOP.”, “You are beating trans down.” comments.

The TWAW-extremists haven’t really showed out like that but haven’t scrolled down fully.

I think the 'just stop' replies remind me of that indolent stage a toddler gets to when they've tantrummed for a while to no avail and screamed themselves hoarse.

"Why won't the woman shut up? I'm bored of screaming, it usually works quicker."

She's wonderful.

She's being bloody brave - I don't care how rich she is, no human likes to be facing what she is. She's doing it because she thinks it's important enough to face down the rage. We've been wishing someone with a massive profile would do so for some time - well, now someone is, and she's not giving an inch.

Why are they blaming JKR for the article? Why don't they write to John Witherow, Editor of the Times. It's almost as though they believe JKR wrote it, printed it, made the paper, made the ink etc etc. Why are they not blaming themselves for not acknowledging detransition happens and all the nastiness and abuse directed at those who detransition..

Its a mad, mad, mad, mad world

Just seen this too. Let's see what the reaction from the cult is today.

Seems to be only a handful of negative comments that say 'Just Stop', as of yet.

'Just stop giving voices to people who shine a light on the very negative and dangerous side of this ideology.'

I'm so thrilled JKR isn't backing down on this. She's an absolute gem, only a fool would fail to see she's coming at this from a very caring and concerned place.
