Just posted on Twitter. The usual suspects are all over the replies, obviously, so give her some support if you can—but there's a surprising amount of balance. Seems to me that the scales have finally started to tip.

It was always going to be sunlight.

---WOMEN OF THE WORLD! We are being stripped of our rights over our bodies, our lives and even of our name! They don’t call us “women” anymore; they call us “birthing people” or “menstruators”, and even “people with vaginas”!
Don’t let them erase you! Every human on earth owes you!---

Holy fucking wow! YES, women, YES!

I love how so many of the comments are 'it's not erasure it's inclusive!' Well why can't women just be called women then ffs

I think she's woman enough to cope with whatever crap follows. Good on her.

Fair play to Bette.

It’s going to get interesting, with the sequel to Hocus Pocus coming out after the original developed a cult, campy following.

Are they going to attempt to JKR her as well?

legaltigger · 04/07/2022 17:56

Just saw this! Love it Grin

CrossStichQueen · 04/07/2022 17:55

No longer on Twitter but happy to show my support for her here.

It shows just how fucked up it is that it's controversial to say women are women and not vagina havers!!

TheGreatATuin · 04/07/2022 17:43

I just saw this and came on here to post in excitement 😁.
Absolutely love her and thrilled to see it. I imagine she knows what she's in for since 'menstruators' was one of JKRs first heresies.
Brave woman.

Ooh. I shall settle in for this 🍿
