They must not read her work, I think. There is a trans gender character in her 2nd Galbraith book and the third on has a character who identified as disabled and wants amputation.
The idea being put forth by the mansplainers that she has not done her research and just needs to talk to some of the people hurling abuse at her is absurd.

Well done Jo, you brilliant woman. I hope that you're here somewhere Flowers

Love you JK and the women of Mumsnet who opened my eyes to this. Off to like some important tweets now.

JigglypuffsCaptor · 07/06/2020 00:27

To the PP's saying it will hit the press and 95% of the population will agree with her, I completely agree!

They will shrug their shoulders and say "yes women have periods, what's the issue" 🤷🏻‍♀️

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 07/06/2020 00:29

She just tweeted this:

thevelvetchronicle.com/anonymous-letter-from-a-terrified-lesbian-thoughtcrime/

Which is worth a read if you haven't already...

TehBewilderness · 07/06/2020 00:29

Please report as many of the threats as you have time to.
Recording the pattern of abuse is important for twitter.

Certain celebs are going down in my estimation. There’s a “comedienne” called Sooz Kempner who i used to follow who is making anti JK remarks. A few days ago she was just posting TRANSWOMEN ARE WOMEN over and over again because we all know that repeating things over and over IN CAPITALS makes them true 🙄

I used to quite like her and she turns out to be a prat.

Woman: female sex of human species who either menstruate, have menstruated, will menstruate or would normally (according to their female biology) have menstruated but did not due to illness/medical condition/medication/surgery.

@Langbannedforsafeguardingkids Hope you don't mind but I borrowed this in my reply to her tweet as it expresses my thought far better than I could. (And more politely).

ofwarren · 07/06/2020 00:30

'Literally' is the most overused word by the trans cult. They are using it over and over again.
I've been reporting the ones with threats. I've seen guns and people threatening to hurt her. Psychopaths.

ShowPicturesOfLifeNotDeath · 07/06/2020 00:31

I hope all the PR companies are paying attention to this and realising there is no need to continue shushing clients out of fear of backlash - truth sells.

middleager · 07/06/2020 00:31

I have so much respect for this woman.

BaronessFloralBunting · 07/06/2020 00:32

I can't report any of the threats because I deleted my twitter account a while ago. I couldn't really justify thinking that the site is literally the lightening rod to amplify human depravity... and still have an account there.

But I salute the women with the clout to stand and speak there. I do it elsewhere, but bloody hell, I've had my fair share of shit for it, and seeing Queen Jo go in to battle like this for women and girls is a shot of pure adrenaline.

blueberrymuffin88 · 07/06/2020 00:34

LOVE HER SO MUCH! A beam on common sense in a world gone crazy

crumpet · 07/06/2020 00:34

Honestly this is amazing. I am so impressed. Need to go to sleep but can’t tear myself away - she is on fire!

I deleted my twitter account because it was sending me into a depression tailspin. Thanks for those of you who keep us up to date on here.

megletthesecond · 07/06/2020 00:42

She's had enough hasn't she. I don't blame her.

Haworthia · 07/06/2020 00:42

Isn’t it funny that all the people flaming her for “transphobia” use sexist and ageist insults as they do so?

She’s doubling down. Nice one Jo 💪

BINtersectionalFeminism · 07/06/2020 00:42

Bloody love you JK. What a woman.

BaronessFloralBunting · 07/06/2020 00:46

A lesbian responded positively, and someone asked in the response why T*RFs are always such ugly hags.

I mean, keep it coming, lads. Pour it all out, don't hold anything back. We want you to put it all on display. No one believes how truly hateful you are when we tell them. They have to see you themselves. Crack on.

IheartJK · 07/06/2020 00:47

The abuse she's getting is horrific. So depressing!

Gibbonsgibbonsgibbons · 07/06/2020 00:49

IheartJK I’m so sorry you went through that Flowers

On it - anyone short of time the violent photos are fast to spot & report

pemberlyshades · 07/06/2020 00:51
