She's said she might have had trans leaning when she was young, and she writes under two male pseudonyms, and she is weirdly and proactively defensive over the issue. I'm good with calling it. She couldn't transition when she was younger, for whatever reason, and now it is socially okay to do so she is trapped by the whole sickly sweet matron persona she's developed as her business brand so can't transition now without imploding that. So she lashes out at the people who are, and tries to stop them, to drag them back into the same misery he lives in.

Tragic, really. I pity her.

I see you're still really crap at trolling.

Yes, yes, you disagree, therefore it must be trolling. Give it a rest, dude.

Hmm. Well there are certainly people who call that frequently on here. There is also one anon who keeps trying to troll but is really painfully bad at it. I'm assuming this is them because it has all of their hallmarks. Easily targeted subject plus stupid statements that don't ring true but are obviously aiming to incite arguments. What makes them bad at it is the sheer stupid inanity of the subjects they pick. Like here. This might be the stupidest theory I've seen all month. Hence me calling you out as our resident hopeless troll.

I'm not convinced or even half-tempted to believe that's the case, but she DID make the claim that if these social movements had been around when she was younger, she might've been "trans"-ed. At which point you've gotta be like, "Uh, Joanne, care to self-reflect on that statement? That is not the go-to reaction of every SA survivor, you can't just throw that out there..."

All of this!

NAYRT
Where did she say this? Can you link it?

DA

She’s said so much transphobic shit that it was hard to track down every individual quote that she said. But the quote was in her essay, which is the crazy manifesto I believe. Here’s an article that quoted it:

https://www.scotsman.com/arts-and-culture/books/jk-rowling-on-twitter-why-the-harry-potter-author-has-been-accused-of-transphobia-on-social-media-platforms-2877977

This is specifically the part of the article that quotes it:

In the 3,600 word essay, Rowling writes about her struggles with sexism and misogyny, adding that reading accounts of gender dysphoira by trans men had made her wonder “if I’d been born 30 years later, I too might have tried to transition”.

And here’s her actual essay if you don’t believe the article(warning: it’s messed up if you’re not a TERF:
