oh i dig this so much. the plain words of “heal for the sake of others” is so blunt and to the point and something everyone should read (and reflect on) tbh
no yeah sorry this is ABSOLUTELY the hill I'm going to die on here, I'm watching series 1 and comparing it to my memory of the later series and looking at how many characters had absolutely incredible development and arcs over the course of a lot of years and then the last couple of series (and in some cases it only took a single episode to ruin it!) just took them right back to the start of their story but in absolutely no meaningful, sensical or satisfying ways? yes I'm talking about jaimie I'm going to die mad about it.
ppl who arent artists think figure drawing is such a nervous, sexy experience u share w some ~*~*~nude stranger~*~*~ but in reality its like. an 87 year old man does downward dog in front of you and ur like wow, nice taint piercing. i see ur also packing a 10 inch monster hog. can someone adjust the lighting, please ? it isnt dynamic enough
So...JK Rowling is now deliberately linking her sexual assault and domestic abuse with trans women (utterly abhorrent) and saying that "any man" can get a gender recognition certificate and use this to enter women only spaces (blatantly untrue).
If you can't see the blatant TERF dogwhistles in this I cannot help you. She has clearly been radicalised because this what TERFs do. They prey on women's traumas and use this to brainwash them into supporting their cause. They prey on the fears of the vulnerable and twist them for their own bigoted and vile agenda.
JK Rowling will not listen to us now. We can only hope at some point she breaks away and starts to truly listen and educate herself.
The best we can do is support trans youth *especially* trans women and trans women of colour even more so; who are more likely than any minority to experience abuse, mental illness, bullying, homelessness, sexual assault/rape and murder.
A person with such a high platform as JK is going to do serious damage to the trans cause we must combat this!
Not just with petty posts of how much she sucks but with action. Donate to trans charities, educate those around you, write to your government, those of you who follow me in the UK write to your MP about the revision of the Gender Recognition Act Review. This has been underway since 2018 and would allow trans people to change their gender without waiting years for appointments at gender clinics and jumping through nonsensical hoops.
Do not allow transmisogyny and transphobia to go on unchallenged.
We must make sure the world is a place where trans women are loved and supported and leave people like JK in the past where they are choosing to stay.
