The Harry Potter world is not all that good. Author of the beloved fantasy books J.K. Rowling and popular women’s rights advocate J.K. Rowling have revealed that she will not accept the lead actors in the Potter movies for their anti-transgender views. Less, er, expecto forgiveness and more expelliarmus …
Rowling’s remarks come in the midst of a report by respected paediatrician Dr. Hilary Cass, which found that “remarkably poor information” and “lack of high-quality analysis” had made it possible for young people in the UK to change their gender. The acclaimed author blasted supporters of gender-altering treatment in children in a number of posts and said they should apologize to” traumatized detransitioners and resilient people.” The author continued: ‘ Today’s hardly a defeat, it’s the laying uncovered of a tragedy.’
One social media users wrote that Daniel Radcliffe, who in the movies played Potter, and Emma Watson, who played his best buddy Hermione Granger, owe Rowling’ a pretty common explanation, safe in the knowledge that you will accept them’. Rowling merely replied: ‘ Never safe, I’m afraid.’ Oops.
There are” some people in the world who are not trying to engage in this conversation in any kind of good faith,” according to Radcliffe, who has recently called people” condescending” for raising concerns about young persons transitioning. The Potter star has also spoken out about his opinions because he wanted to let the Gay neighborhood know that” not everyone in the company felt that way.” In a research to Rowling’s personal stance on the subject.
However, Watson has been outspoken about where she stands, recently writing that:
Trans people are who they say they are, and they deserve to live their lives without being constantly questioned or told they are n’t who they say they are. I want my transgender fans to know that I and many others around the world respect and admire you for who you are.
And Rupert Grint, who played Ron Weasley, the fourth of the major trio in the films, has said that while he is’ highly pleased for everything]Rowling ] has done’, he thinks’ you can have great respect for someone and also disagree with things like that.’ Ultimately, that does n’t seem to quite cut it for Rowling on an issue like this …
