Enjoy

Yes. Amazing. A shame she's had to reveal so much of herself, but as always, her writing is brilliant.

I agree amazing and the abuse she has received on twitter is disgusting

I have just got half way through that and come here to see if it was up.

I expect an equally researched and reasoned piece from Mr Radcliffe (and for him to have done it himself )

💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💃💃💃💃💃

Spoken from her heart 🥰🥰🥰🥰😍

Just off to read it. Thanks for the link.

I'm not playing a violin for you, jK Rowling, not even a teeny tiny one. I'm playing the biggest, most beautiful, most awesome great CELLO for you. A concerto of life, joy and respect for an awesome, articulate woman.

Harry Potter did not make me cry. This did.

Thank you.

Fabulous piece. Wonder how much grief I’ll get if I share it on FB?!

That’s amazing. So well-argued, clear and passionate. I’m sure the flashing anime gifs she’ll receive in return will be equally well-crafted.

Also, she must read MN.

Just everything I ever wanted to articulate about this ideology.

This is the best thing she has ever written, and I say that as an admirer of her work. So powerful, such clarity, bloody hell it has made me cry. I need to read it again.

This is absolutely brilliant! She addresses so eloquently so many topics people have been silenced for for so long.

Amazing. In tears. Wonderful woman.

Yaaaaas! Im not ashamed to say I welled up reading that. The genie is out of the bottle. Thank you Jo!

I wonder how many of the Twitterati, who are incapable of reading anything more than 280 characters in one go, will even bother to read the whole thing?

I'm categorically not crying.

Amazingly intelligent woman. Thank Christ she's on our side...

Thank you JK Rowling.

What an amazing fucking woman.

Im just a lurker and have been for years but this has me in tears.
You are bloody amazing Joanne

Holy crap I am SO close to sharing this on Facebook and losing all my friends... SO close.

Great piece.

The part about her teenage years really resonated with me, as I think it would with many young girls.
Puberty is a difficult, confusing and isolating time for many teenagers.
I was miserable through most of it- I hated my body, had no sense of belonging to girls around me, or even my family.

Although sadly I am convinced that thousands of transactivists will beat her down for being insulting to their trans-ness.

What do they say about de-transitioners by the way?

I'm in tears also. Don't know if you believe in God JK, but may you be showered with all the blessings of the universe.

Oh, destransitioners weren’t ever really trans, even though anyone is trans if they say they are.

She is utterly wonderful.
