Tell me again how JKR is the baddie?

Just saw this on threads. How is it ok. To wish someone dead? How is that being on "the right side of history"?
I disagree with lots of people on various things. I've never thought "I'd rather hear s/he is dead"

JKR is a figure of fantasy.

And this is a fan fiction of that fantasy.

I don't agree with you. I don't think that being determined is the same as being obsessed. Her position is very clear, and has been transparently outlined in the essay she wrote four years ago about why she was doing this. It's still there on her website and you can read it for yourself, which you should do if you really want to understand her. And especially if you genuinely want to play a more productive role in the discussions on this site.

Could you help me understand what was achieved when she kept posting snide nasty remarks about a trans football manager? Who happened to be happily married, supported by the team she manages and the other teams, and isn't a criminal?

I saw the football manager got a lot of abuse from JK Rowling's followers, but the people who already supported her were continuing to support her. So what's the outcome from that other than to bully a trans woman who is doing nothing wrong except existing? I keep hearing the word "witch hunt" but that appears to be what JK Rowling is doing to other women.

Saw this today which makes a good point. JKR has broken her twitter silence just to slag another women's make-up, even though she may not be perfect herself or 100% natural.

So what is JKR's point here? Just to bully women? That's how it comes across to a lot of people.

Can we look at what her friends are posting too?

Some disgusting implications made by Julie Bindel about the Chief Executive Officer of Edinburgh Rape Crisis.

Sounds like there could be more court case overs over both those comments. Aren't Maya and Glinner both in some legal trouble too over alleged comments made towards trans/gay people?

While the gender critical movement may have some valid points, JKR and friends aren't doing themselves any favours by bullying women or making potential libellous hateful implications or accusations.

Broke her twitter silence? Wasn't she on holiday and therefore not being online?

And that picture of IK in makeup is interesting. I could put my long haired adult son in makeup and pink earrings and he'd look pretty similar. So it's not proof of anything.

Christinapple we know you don't see transwomen as women because you are so focussed on making sure that they have every whim catered to. If you saw them as women you wouldn't care about them so much.

If transwomen really wanted to be seen as and treated as women then they wouldn't expect anyone to listen to them. The expectation that the world will bow to all their demands is the ultimate admission that they see themselves as men.

Are you mad?
Its completely reasonable in the circumstances.
he lied to get the job, and thats even before any of his gross statements.
At best, you are being dangerouly naive about predatory behaviour.
You might want to remind yourself of all the BBCs coverups and give your head a shake.

Go ahead and keep laughing at transphobic abuse, we know at this point it doesn't win votes or lawsuits. I heard the owner of the Giggle app laughed in court at an offensive transphobic caricature of the trans woman which doesn't go down well with the judge?

WickedSerious · 24/08/2024 17:48

I don't need permission to laugh at men pretending to be women but thanks anyway.

I have to say JKR is wrong

thats not heavy makeup

it is a photo thats been photoshopped beyond recognition

We all know that when you say 'transphobic abuse' what you really mean is 'stating biological facts' so no, we are not remotely bothered.

HTH.

i have read many times TW saying they have a lady penis

is that the wrong thing to say now?

is it just a penis or are people supposed to call it a vagina?

I thought TWAW and some women have a penis and lesbians have to accept lady penis.

@Christinapple , I'm afraid I can't help you other than pointing you again at Rowling's essay, which will give you the insight you need to get her angle.

If JKR is going to judge other women's appearances (how very feminist of her?) I'm sure she wouldn't mind a little discussion of her own appearance being judged? Are her pics photoshopped or is that botox I see? Come on, virtually noone looks perfectly smooth and flawless at age 60 especially if they like a little drink or two.

RufustheFactualReindeer · 24/08/2024 19:24

You go for it chris

i don’t generally comment on anyone’s appearance but you do you

RufustheFactualReindeer · 24/08/2024 19:28

So you think that jkr is being mean about someone’s appearance

and you lower yourself right down to what you feel is their level

says a lot about you…

I'm never seen JKR criticise another woman's appearance ... 🤔

@Christinapple should all people be shamed for a little surgical or non surgical enhancement? Should we all stay natural? Interesting.

But JKR isn't using her photos as some kind of proof that she isn't 60 because she doesn't look it.

Women shouldn't be shamed for their application of make-up either if it doesn't conform to JKR's liking.

You are deliberately misinterpreting her point. You know this.

I doubt she has any strong feelings either way about the aesthetic qualities of Khelifs makeup. She is simply pointing out that the application does not make Khelif a woman.

SummerSnowstorm · 24/08/2024 21:17

Christinapple · 24/08/2024 02:20

I wouldn't give her the satisfaction of calling her a "baddie", but she does seem rather obsessed with people who are either trans or don't meet her criteria of what a woman should be.

Not long ago she was obsessed with a trans football manager (who had done nothing wrong except exist), now she's obsessed with Imane Khelif.

a billionaire with 14M followers on twitter and almost everything she tweets is repeated by the tabloids, and this is what she chooses to use it for?

I would usually say "not my prob, go ahead" other than she could be putting trans women and other women at risk of harm with her tweets.

btw where is her chum Bindel? Or is there a game going on where people go quiet from twitter so everyone guesses where they are?

How is she putting transwomen at risk? She's not incited any risk or violence at any point?
And she's definitely not said anything to put real women at risk, everything she says is promoting keeping women and girls safe.
