“Harry Potter” author and outspoken feminist J.K. Rowling has had quite a time of it on X over the last five years — and while she’s often sparked ire among the radical transgender activist crowd, many on the social media platform find her giving voice to their own thoughts, particularly when it comes to gender ideology and its strictest adherents.
Here are just a few of her best from 2024.
That time she called out critics who think biological males should go to women’s prisons based on self-identification.
“The trans activist outrage that ensues on here whenever I share my belief that jailed women shouldn’t be used as validation tools or emotional support props for trans-identified male sex offenders is as revealing as it’s predictable,” Rowling wrote.
“Such activists can’t bring themselves to concede that a man who was convicted of harming women/girls ought not to be incarcerated with the demographic to whom he is a proven danger, because if they do, all their stock arguments (‘no sexual predator would bother to pretend to be trans’, ‘no trans woman has ever harmed a woman in a women’s only space’, ‘there is no danger in making all single sex spaces unisex’) are exposed as the lies they are,” she continued. “If they admit that even a single man isn’t a woman because he says he is, the entire edifice of gender identity ideology crumbles. This leaves activists who rely on bullying and slogans with nowhere to go but ‘you hate all trans people’, ‘so you’re saying all trans people are rapists’ and, of course, ‘you are causing a trans genocide.’”
