What an absolute smear to the community. Tossing women under the bus to lick the heels of men. As if anything Rowling has said up to this day has even come close to offensive.

Rowling is a writer, a women, and somebody who knows just damn well about how powerful words can be. As well as how damaging redefining and changing them can get. Any woman with half a brain cell can see how ridiculous the demands are, and some like this idiot refuse to see past her nose.

Not to mention AL is filled to the brim with everyone but lesbians. So I assume everyone in there is not a lesbian. I take what they have to say and throw it in the rubbish bin.

Yeah I automatically assumed this was a dudebian. It’s disappointing to think that it might be a post from a woman, but so many women, even lesbians, work so hard for male approval. Female socialization is a helluva force.

We are talking Actual Lesbians here, it's probably a man masquerading as a "cis lesbian" trawling for imaginary internet points from other men.

Tweeders55 · June 10, 2020, 3:16 a.m.

I hate the cis thing. Its not a word. A lesbian is a woman. The man is a pervert. Simple.

A good chunk of that sub is men larping as women, can't take anything from them seriously.

Assuming this is an actual woman/lesbian, usually people do this out of love/friendship for their friends/family (it was my personal reason as well back when I believed in "tRaNs rIGHts").

Though the alternative possibility that she's a cringey virtue signalling "not-like-other-girls" girl is also a possibility.

Resgignickell · June 10, 2020, 1:47 a.m.

As a "cis lesbian", of course. Which basically means some mentally ill dude larping as a woman.

Fucking boot licker. She’s not a lesbian, just another handmaiden.

Lol Exactly what “rights” to tRanZ people not have?

Tweeders55 · June 10, 2020, 11:06 a.m. · 1 reply

They have every right a man has since most of them are.

KevinAndWinnie4Eva · June 10, 2020, 11:43 a.m. · 2 replies

Pretty much. I always cringe when I see the “i stand for tranZ rights!” Or “I support tranZ rights!”

What rights? What rights do Trans people not have? When ever this is asked, they can’t seem to answer.

Tweeders55 · June 10, 2020, 11:45 a.m.

They call you transphobes for even asking ergo avoiding having to answer.

letsgotothetrail · June 14, 2020, 3:29 p.m.

The right to women’s spaces and women’s bodies. The right to smash women for suggesting that sexed bodies are a reality. The right to take women’s places in leadership positions, shelters, sports, awards, scholarships, dorms, prisons, clubs, and anywhere else they damn please. The right to force people to play along with their fantasy.

If this is an actual lesbian (my guess is that it's a delusional bi woman), I'd like to see how she responds if/when she's told her choices were to suck dick or be branded a TERF.

Why would she make the word lesbian scary? As far as I know JK hasn't mentioned lesbians at all?

Tangleofsnakes · June 10, 2020, 3:03 p.m.

Yeah, I don't get it either. This current hullabaloo started because JK objected to women being called "people who menstruate," but (of course) transwomen and transbians are receiving the focus.

what "transphobic" thing was it that she said? Can you be specific?

fagioli999 · June 11, 2020, 2:46 p.m. · 3 replies

She recently was replying to a tweet that said a group is handing tampons and pass out to anyone that has a period. She said something like “hmm there’s a word for that like woham, (etc)”

Yes. Women have periods. I fail to see how acknowledging women's biological functions is in any way transphobic.

What do we call "people who ejaculate", or "people who wear condoms", or "people who have a prostate", is there a name for those people?

Please read the sidebar before commenting here any further. No one here gives a flying fuck about gender, so therefore we don't gaf if it's a spectrum or not. Women (adult human females) have periods. Your personal opinions on the matter are no more valid than ours, so please see yourself out. It's rather idiotic that a woman who wants to opt out of womanhood should be offended when women talk about their bodily functions, and then demand that said talk be inclusive of them, when any other time we mention our body parts or functions you scream about how it triggers your dysphoria. Bye now.

letsgotothetrail · June 14, 2020, 3:37 p.m.

All people who have periods are girls and women. Trans men are still women. Trans women don’t have periods. That’s not transphobic, I haven’t written anything that’s false, you and everyone else knows it.

denverkrisLesbians do not have penis · June 15, 2020, 11:28 a.m.

Just so that everyone knows, I have left this comment up because it really isn't offensive, etc. It also isn't transphobic in any way, so hopefully this user can come to realize this on their own at some point.

letsgotothetrail · June 14, 2020, 3:35 p.m.

You can’t point out anything that she said that was transphobic. Give it a try. Good luck.
