Gaun yersel' JKR!

Another post from our favourite feminist

Is it really too much for JK Rowling and others to use the term transwomen? Even if she has differing views, just out of respect and to be polite?

Respect for rapists? You would complain if she had said transwomen rapists. Didn't you object to lesbians complaining about being raped by transwomen as it was smearing them as a group?

Love her more everytime she tweets. I'm becoming more and more vocal and I've been pleasantly surprised with the responses I've received recently

Yes.

Next stupid question?

You think women should be polite and respectful about rapists? How very unpleasant of you. Only those with a penis can rape. Men. It's not possible for women to do so.

She's wonderful.

@MargaritaPie

"penised individual"?

Previously known as men

Women! Have you been raped? Be sure to check your assailant's pronouns before making your police report. #BeKind

I’m alright if something someone says pisses a rapist off tbh. Especially if it’s true.

Perhaps she didn't want people to think she accused transwomen in general of being rapists

Gaaaah. I’ve come off the old twit pit. Best do another turn.

Keep shouting queen! You are not wrong! No matter how they try to paint it, you are not wrong.

Yes, because unlike you and Stonewall, I doubt JK thinks the hundreds of 'women' rapists who've been caught since self ID became police policy are genuinely transwomen.

Or women.

I say this with respect and kindness Mags. That is a really fucking stupid thing to say, even by your standards. 😂

Nothing to add other than it's so great to have a public figure I can unequivocally respect these days.

@MargaritaPie

"penised individual"?

Yes, why not? After all someone with a penis is an individual aren't they? Same as the TRA argument that there should be no objection to people who menstruate.

If you don't like JKR using that term - get over it as your TRAs and allies like to say.

Hoist by your own petard.

Sorry, I just cannot believe that someone has come onto this thread with 'won't somebody think of the rapists'.

As soon as I saw MargaritaPIE's name I knew that would be their take.

I am going to refer to all people with a penis as bepenised individuals going forward.

As a previous poster said, I am a cervix haver on a cancer charity… so penis people are penis people.

And actually this makes me extremely considerate. I wouldn’t presume to make a guess of anyone’s gender. Or indeed that whatever the gender they currently identify as is constant.

So penis people it is.

Go JK!!

Polite to the people who send her death threats?

“Her voice was ever soft, gentle and low - an excellent thing in woman”

Thank you for the thread op. I too am confused as to why she is being disrespectful. I wonder if @MargaritaPie will come back to explain.

Good point, Double. Penisfolx is probably the best way to go.

A Rapist?

“The sex/gender identification of individuals who come into contact with the police will be based on how they present or how they self-declare, which is consistent with the values of the organisation. Police Scotland requires no evidence or certification as proof of biological sex or gender identity other than a person’s self-declaration, unless it is pertinent to any investigation with which they are linked.”

I can't get my head around this.... Surely the very definition of rape (being penetrated without consent by a penis) means biological sex is pretty fucking pertinent.... It's such nonsense. Mind numbing, be kind, misogynistic bullshit.

And I look forward to seeing what the Twitter idiots will come up with to maintain that not only is she wrong, but she is a terrible person to boot!

I really hope they all get mad. She's up to near 15000 likes in an hour and a half. The more they complain the better.
