Another post from our favourite feminist

So true.

looks like the gloves are off. I am very happy to read the comments supporting her.

"Well we’re not allowed to say ‘man’ when they identify as a woman, are we"

Is it really too much for JK Rowling and others to use the term transwomen? Even if she has differing views, just out of respect and to be polite?

But isn't this sort of thing 'inclusive'?

I love the economy and directness of JKR’s tweets. The TRA pile ons, death threats and rape threats have backfired spectacularly. I’m not seeing much screeching under her tweet on this occasion. Have they regrouped elsewhere under a hashtag?

Perhaps defending rapists is a step too far them? (Or apparently not for a poster on this thread)

hallouminatus · 12/12/2021 21:07

Shouldn't that be "bepenised"?
I don't think so. We say winged and two-legged, not bewinged etc.
And bepenised could be understood to follow the pattern of beheaded, changing the meaning rather drastically.

Did you not check your facts?

This is that tweet in full

War is Peace.
Freedom is Slavery.
Ignorance is Strength.
The Penised Individual Who Raped You Is a Woman.

Yes, it is too much for me to defer to rapists "to be polite".

Rape is hardly respectful or polite, is it?

Have they just all used their terfblocker lists so they don’t see anything they don’t like maybe…?

@Linguini

Anyone have a link to her tweet? I'm not on twitter but can access as a viewer

Just go to her profile it's the 2 tweet.

Google JK_rowling and Twitter and her Twitter profile pops up

A rapist doesn't deserve respect.

“The sex/gender identification of individuals who come into contact with the police will be based on how they present or how they self-declare, which is consistent with the values of the organisation. Police Scotland requires no evidence or certification as proof of biological sex or gender identity other than a person’s self-declaration, unless it is pertinent to any investigation with which they are linked.”

I can't get my head around this.... Surely the very definition of rape (being penetrated without consent by a penis) means biological sex is pretty fucking pertinent.... It's such nonsense. Mind numbing, be kind, misogynistic bullshit.

Nope Ireland, male with penis sexually assaulted a child. Gets a GRC.

By law the only male body parts which remain legaly male are those involved in sexual crimes, but the crime is recorded as CSA by a female.

That looks so odd when typed out.

TheCountessofFitzdotterel · 12/12/2021 20:33

It’s lovely seeing how much positivity her post has generated.
I mean I am sure there will be some misogynist abuse buried amongst the supportive replies but far more people agree with her.

@GrumpyPanda

Shouldn't that be "bepenised"? Sounds like a passive participle otherwise, and I'm not quite sure what the corresponding verb is

I thought this same thing. 🙂

Last time I checked, "transwoman" was incredibly offensive. The correct term is trans woman. (And if you claim you can't hear the difference, then you're being deliberately hateful.)

AlwaysAWoman · 12/12/2021 20:28

I absolutely love this woman.

Is there anyone else of her status speaking out like she is?

What a disingenuous comment. If she had used the nonsense term 'transwoman' in her tweet, you'd have been all over it crying 'Transphobia!!!!! CANCEL THE WITCH!!! BURN HER!!! BURN HER!!!!"

JayAlfredPrufrock · 12/12/2021 20:23

She’s not giving up is she. ❤️

donquixotedelamancha · 12/12/2021 20:23

And I look forward to seeing what the Twitter idiots will come up with to maintain that not only is she wrong, but she is a terrible person to boot!

I really hope they all get mad. She's up to near 15000 likes in an hour and a half. The more they complain the better.
