She isn't sitting on the sidelines anymore. Good. Let's have this debate.

She outclasses all of her critics by miles. So much respect for this woman.

SunsetBeetch · 28/06/2020 17:32

Oh she's fantastic!

TheSingingKettle49 · 28/06/2020 17:32

It must be so infuriating to the TRAs that she is such a powerful woman that she can’t be silenced and she can’t be forced into apologising, that whatever she says will be reported around the world and that if she never sold another book she would live the rest of her life in luxury.

HumphreyCobblers · 28/06/2020 17:34

She truly is a wonderful woman. I admire her so much.

HandsOffMyRights · 28/06/2020 17:34

She is a trailblazer!

StandUpStraight · 28/06/2020 17:35

@CaveMum thank you!!!
Wow. She is just incredible. I can only imagine the idiotic responses this is eliciting. The juxtaposition of her thoughtful and measured tweets with the screeching will no doubt be very illuminating for a few more people. More sunlight.

StealthPolarBear · 28/06/2020 17:37

Amazing. I wish you could like posts more than once.

teaandtoast123 · 28/06/2020 17:37

I wonder how Daniel and Emma will respond to this one. I hope they have the decency to feel some embarrassment.

Abitouting · 28/06/2020 17:38

She is absolutely brilliant. Go JK!

ahumanfemale · 28/06/2020 17:38

She's brilliant.

I'm posting this response because it's a beaut and deserves some more eyes rolling at it. 😉

Her post and her replies to some of the people thanking her made me tear up. It's lovely.

Whatsnewpussyhat · 28/06/2020 17:39

The number of people that have just written 'shut up' as a response

Their heads are 'literally' exploding that a woman has said no. They have zero control over her. It's beautiful.

RoyalCorgi · 28/06/2020 17:39

What a waste of a tweet. At least argue your point!

They can't. "Shut up" is all they have when confronted with a brave woman talking about women's experience of violence.

7Days · 28/06/2020 17:41

Wonderful JK.
A legend

BigBadVoodooHat · 28/06/2020 17:41

Having seen them both ‘act’, it’s safe to say that they lack the emotional depth and self-awareness to meaningfully reflect on their clumsiness.

teaandtoast123 · 28/06/2020 17:41

@ahumanfemale

The reply directly after that one says it all.
Tonz · 28/06/2020 17:42

JK Rowling.. Fabulous as always. Love this woman

NoCureForLove · 28/06/2020 17:42

Well, women speaking out about male violence does make men look - and feel - bad. So of course women should shut up. Awesome as usual JKR.

StandWithYou · 28/06/2020 17:43

There are so many inspiring women - thank you to all. Just when I think we aren’t making any headway you keep on going and inspiring me. Amazing writing fro JKR.

MonsteraCheeseplant · 28/06/2020 17:44

She cited Dworkin! You legend Joanne!

OliveKitteridgeAgain · 28/06/2020 17:44

@MollyAtTheFolly

The number of people that have just written 'shut up' as a response. It's so mature and they will definitely ensure they get what they want Hmm Grin

What a waste of a tweet. At least argue your point!

They can't. That's what no platforming/cancelling amounts to. A command to shut up, and stop speaking truth. They have no rational argument - only unicorns and fairy stories.
ErrolTheDragon · 28/06/2020 17:44

It doesn't occur to that tweeter that TRAs picked our hill - well, the whole mountain range of womanhood - to fight on, does it?

ErrolTheDragon · 28/06/2020 17:47

Thems the rules...
