    It’s masculine for a woman to call herself by her initials isn’t it, J.K.? Kinda ironic that she’s bullying someone based on gender identity.

    Back in the day most women who referred to themselves by initials were suspected to be lesbians.

      Not sure why you’re being downvoted but it is actually funny. She calls herself J.K. and hates being referred to as Joanne. But yet she’s comfortable calling trans people things they don’t desire to be called. “Rules for me but not for thee”. She intentionally called herself J.K. instead of Joanne to have a more “androgynous” name, so that people wouldn’t avoid engaging with her writings for the fact that she’s a woman. So she herself can dabble in ambiguity but if a trans person does it, it’s a problem.

      maybe she prefers andrew galbraith and secretly wants to be a man herself, projecting her hate onto trans people

      Yes this is one of the funniest things about Rowling, she used JK because she thought the books would be more popular with an ambigious name that wasn’t gendered, she also writes under a male pseudonym.

      The best part is that she opposes all kinds of gender affirming surgery, even for adults, despite the mountains of plastic surgery she has done on her face. What’s that if not gender affirming surgery?
