Hmmmm, I think this may have been too deep an AV club cut - I was making fun of them for whinging about Rowling while demonstrating they don’t actually care with articles like this one:

“trans women are delusional, invalid pervert criminals and the law should stop them from being in spaces with real women”

Good to see the AV club continuing the good fight against that awful JK Rowling. Now, can anyone point me towards an article laying out the best places to buy Harry Potter merch?

Well I think that’s exactly what happened, or at least that’s how the quotes above make it out. She took his opinion on board, which is obviously very different to doing it “at his insistence”, but sounds nowhere near as sensational.

“What about this implies that he didn’t insist she get the abortion?”

“...got an abortion at her boyfriend’s insistence.”

I know I'm 9 months late, but this is such a good comment 

Must be tough to find the time to pretend to write novels

“a bit too far out of touch with modern attitudes.”

“an obvious, cynical, and cruel attempt to control the narrative and made him look like more of a bad guy than her.”

I loved the first season, but thought it got progressively worse as they added more and more characters and topical issues. And hanging it all on a tired will-they-won’t-they plot for Meadhbh and Otis was a mistake.

Man her voter base is going to crucify her for this. Going to a musical, what was she thinking?

Man it’s bad enough that his comedy as oppression porn style is so unfunny, but that he’s made it all up is just embarrassing. 

“Although some aspects of the film are problematic in today’s world...”

Yes yes, anyone who disagrees with you is evil and probably a nazi too, how awful.

You can add Sweden and Denmark to that list. You could add every country in the world outside of the USA and these American exceptionalists wouldn’t care, as far as they’re concerned the science is settled because the AMA told them so, and to hell with these Eurotrash with their top tier, non profit driven medical…

This is bullshit. Just because blockers have been used for early onset puberty does not mean they are safe for off label use. That's not how medical science works. 

Yes trans men are female so should compete with other females. Unless they've taken any banned substances of course. 

Haha you got me, because I proved you were wrong about something I’m obsessed. Begging you people to look these things up yourselves, you look so stupid otherwise.

Would that not be a bit unfair on the women who have to put up with it for 15 to 20 years? We already know males have an advantage over females in sport, we don't need to test for it.
