We've developed a bit of a tradition on the Feminism: Sex and gender discussions board of making donations as a gesture of appreciation to someone whose work we are grateful for, e.g. donations to Sex Matters to say thank you to Naomi Cunningham and her team.

So it's the wonderful JKR's birthday. What do you get for the woman who has everything? How about a 'Happy Birthday, JKR, with admiration, and many many thanks' donation to her children's charity, Lumos?

Ah.. okay. I just remember being proud of having a Harry after the massive hype of the character..

Happy Birthday - many, many happy returns!

I read your Twitter posts during Trumps first term, delighting in your wit. During the isolation of Covid I would read out your eagerly awaited installments of the Ickerbod to my children, appreciating your kindness, skill and leadership during a pretty scary time. Then, when I felt increasingly uncomfortably in an unrecognisable captured world, doubting my self and my qualms as all of my other look toos crumbled (Guardian, BBC, Labour Party). You were suddenly there again as as this strong, unwavering beacon of sense, humour, bravery and inspiration. A lightening rod that took a whole world full of shit and condemnation for the rest of us and through following you I found this place and realised I am not mad or evil or stupid or alone. You are quite simply my hero. Thank you. I hope you have the best birthday ever.

Zimniy · 31/07/2025 17:00

Happy birthday JKR. Always appreciate you and your work.

INeedAPensieve · 31/07/2025 17:31

@Marylou62 me being a massive Harry potter fan, in the books he was born in 1980 and turned 11 in 1991. His parents were killed by Voldemort in 1981 on Halloween night.

So he's 45 today although if yes, if you go by book anniversary then the series itself is 28 years old😊

BingBongSong · 31/07/2025 17:50

Happy birthday, JKR!

Donation made to Lumos. I'm waiting eagerly for the next Strike novel to come out.

I'm waiting at the bar just in case she shows...

I hope she has a fabulous day.

Happy birthday and thank you x

MounjaroMounjaro · 31/07/2025 19:14

Happy birthday! I can't tell you what a difference you made to my family. You're the reason my son reads books 😀and you're the reason my daughter is only 99% devoted to the TWAW cause rather than 100%.

Thewishingchair123 · 31/07/2025 19:19

Happy Birthday JK ! 🥳 Thank you for all you’ve done and all you continue to do. You are inspirational in so many ways. I’ve taken a leaf from your book(s) and spoken out in my own little way too. Thank you 🙏
