Quick question about the Robert Galbraith pseudonym....

[ContessaferJones]

A lot of TRAs (and sadly some of my own friends) are banging on about how JKR obviously chose (part of) the name of a crazed American psychiatrist who pioneered gay conversion therapy as some sort of elaborate fuck you to the LGBT community. I am of the opinion that it's an unfortunate coincidence, as it took me a little while to dig up the details on the original Robert Galbraith Heath and I actuary knew he was there to look for.

I've seen her explanation of the name and think it sounds believable, but haven't seen her make any recent statement regarding the overlap. Is anyone aware of any such statement? If so I'd be grateful for a link, ta :)

@Vodkacranberryplease

And let's not forget she gave half a million pounds to Refuge. She's a complete leftie and always has been. Someone who dragged herself up from nothing and has given back in spades.

Sadly though it appears mumsnet is now a target for the TRA community who is using it to make things up to suit their purposes. I've seen a few threads clearly posted by them, a few comments by people who are clearly part of that world etc. Not news to you all I'm sure. But just really fucking sick as far as I'm concerned.

We always get an influx of misogynists when something hits the press. They don't stay long on here, because they can't keep within the rules. They get too angry.
