Glamour UK honoured nine “ground-breaking” trans women on its Women of the Year cover, and JK Rowling responded with her usual vitriol and bile.
The magazine’s response said it all...

Also, say I was presented with tons of evidence that JKR is absolutely the most horrible person who ever lived...I'm still not going to think men can become women.

Likewise Glinner might turn out to be the evil woman who put a cat in a bin...makes no odds to my views on the fact men can't become women.

I don't care what Dolly Parton really thought. I wish posters would give up with this tedious crap and accept we are adults with our own critical thinking skills, we aren't just under the spell of fandom to high priestess JKR like they seem to think.

Don't even have to read this nonsense to know I'm on JKR's side. As most people on this forum will be. Suggest you take this drivel to Reddit or similar.

If it’s guilt by association we’re going for here, how do the TRAs reconcile that this is on their side?

Nine men

Oh god, are they still pushing that whole 'dolls' thing? Bad enough that these misogynistic twits are conflating womanhood with dresses, long hair and make up, but they still aren't seeing the sexism in wanting to be called 'dolls'.
Actual women don't want to be called dolls. Usual regressive nonsense from them.
Good on JK for calling it out. Again.
But then I suppose Glamour was never exactly a bastion of feminism. Nor Pink News. I suppose they need to generate a bit of controversy to try drive sales these days.

That time portal in the pub is so boring!

I wanted to go back a century not a year.

I'm off to fiddle with the dials.

Not tonight. I’m tired.

In other breaking news, the Supreme Court found for FWS and decided that trans identifying men are not women after all.

Screamingabdabz · 06/10/2026 20:42

I agree @Scout2016

I personally think those ‘dolls’ look amazing and very photogenic.

Still men though. 🤷🏻‍♀️

The he-said, she-said, they-said is irrelevant.

Still male.

People can’t change sex. What’s wrong with just being beautiful feminised men?

The only people who call women “dolls” are men.

Isn't Pink News written by AI these days?

JKRismyPatronus · 09/10/2026 10:33

Scout2016 · 05/10/2026 15:58

I also find the "dolls" terminology grim, and creepy, insulting and unhealthy.

I feel the same.

StellaAndCrow · 09/10/2026 10:50

LOL!😆😆😆
They think "Better luck next time Jo" is the perfect response?!

It's like they can't conceive of women standing up for women.

I mean, they're suggesting that JK ROWLING is jealous of these men???
Seriously?

It’s just the kind of goady SM post that will get likes and engagement, I bet they’re praying she responds

Blimey.

When you're right, you're right.

The irony of using Prick News as a source for your misogynistic bigotry against a feminist heroine.

Yeah, she may be a billionaire with a yacht, a castle and world renown who gets on the front page of The Guardian, the Times, Washington Post etc with her every pronouncment but she's well jelly that a fading online magazine doesn't want a picture of her on their not-really-a-cover.
