Convicted sex offender Isla Bryson has branded the Harry Potter author “pathetic” and backed under-fire Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre for employing a trans-identifying man as CEO.

It's hardly massive news, or even surprising really.

I’m sure right thinking people across the nation are shocked that rapist Isla Bryson has an opinion about how rape shelters are run, and thinks they know better than JKR- who has funded the establishment of a rape crisis service due to issues with the existing system.

Quite.

Would someone convicted of harming animals get quoted about the RSPCA? If not, WTF are women less important than dogs?

I don't know why anyone would think a rapist's opinions on rape crisis centres are relevant - other than to do the opposite.

Given that the old 'this person who is clearly A Baddie thinks the same as you think so that means you are also A Baddie and agree with them on everything' trope gets used against GC women by TRAs all the time, I think Isla Bryson's views should be reported far and wide.

I'm sure JK is devastated that bryony thinks her books and movies are shit 🫢

It doesn't matter what "side" you are on, I doubt anyone cares what a rapist thinks of rape shelters.

And if they do, they aren't suitable to be in the position of making decisions.

Do other double rapists get their opinions printed in the press? Why is this rapist receiving any media attention? If he didn't claim a trans identity would the media bother reporting his comments?

Shameful for any media organisation to report on his views and comments.

I am sure that JK Rowling feels suitably disappointed by this criticism. I am sure she plans to never write again because of it.

They really shouldn't publish anything this vile man has to say

Edit- to the poster above, snap!

Why are they giving that vile man the attention he clearly craves?
