Just when you thought Jennifer Lawrence was fated to be just another franchise widget

Whether or not she’s a shitbag is going to be judged variously be different people. They can judge more accurately with such specifics.

It’s true I have not actually been following Rowling’s writing, and instead just looked up the op-ed referenced in the original post up top.

The present-tense third person version of the word is “has”, and the past-tense is “had”. Perry is not multiple people who “have” something.

A man can walk into a bathroom... but because they are officially not permitted, women can object and if the man refuses to leave she may Speak To The Manager of the building in question, and the man may face consequences. Sex segregated bathrooms have existed for a long time and for the most part had their rules…

I think they lost most of their colonies before the word “transphobia” was even coined.

I don’t see how it logically follows that a person who believes that men should not be permitted to enter women’s bathrooms must also believe that this is enforced by magic.

This article indicates the UK being more legally friendly to trans people than France:

There’s actually another Nazi-era period piece which more directly touches on related issues:

Rowling is specifically objecting to natal males who have NOT had surgery now being permitted to enter female spaces. So rather the opposite of your complaint.

She thinks her rights have been infringed because someone took the word ‘woman’ off a packet of sanitary pads?

I highly doubt that Britain is the most transphobic country in the world. The current controversies are over an act to permit people to self-identify, which I doubt is even on the table for most countries worldwide.

The Times requires you to subscribe to get the full op-ed, but it appears Rowling made it freely available on her own site:

I only watched the first season. I heard the quality dropped off.
