I really don't listen to her, but I feel like even though she's probably being dangerously wrong and stupid...

...I still think she's coming from a good place in her heart.  For me, intention is a very important factor, so I hope she finds a way to find the truth on the subject.  I just can't hate her over this.

When conversion therapy was still a thing back then, a lot of parents would get their gay kids to undergo one cuz they believed it was the 'cure' for homosexuality and that what they were doing was coming from a good place. This isn't related to the thread, I'm just using it as an example.

Intentions are important but the effects of her actions is also just as important. What she's doing is very harmful to the trans community.

Wow she's really still thinking about this, huh? Just when most of the world forgot about what she had to say.

Obviously being rich and famous doesn't prevent you speaking your mind on issues you feel strongly about. What is that logic? I don't think she cares if you stop reading Goblet of Fire.

Duh. It’s just disappointing that someone with her success and audience feels compelled to speak vehemently about such a sensitive topic, with such obvious ill will, if you look at her overall behavior towards trans efforts.
But sure, nitpick my comment. That’s a good use of energy lol. I was literally criticizing a transphobic person. Y’all are annoying sometimes. 

Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time.

She literally says that people are shunted into accepting hormones because they’re “confused gays”. The headline doesn’t say she’s saying gay people need conversion therapy, the headline says that she believes that “confused gays” are being manipulated into transitioning and that their identity and choice is less valid because of it.

the OP fixed the title and that’s honestly all i asked to be fixed as it had no relation to the tweets whatsoever. what she’s saying is wrong and gross but the OPs original title reading Joke Rowling said “trans people need conversion therapy” wasn’t what she said at all, and OP admitted to misreading it hence why they changed it. i suggest go back and read my comments.

i 100% agree with what you’re saying, if you read my first comment to begin with we wouldn’t be having this conversation honestly :ladyhaha: i’m a transgender female so why are you even explaining a topic that literally comes under me as trans?

hermione perhaps!

idk i wouldn’t take the authors hatred out on the books themselves. the whole HP cast itself is actually pro-trans rights. emma watson is a confirmed trans ally.

you could also keep ur name as daniel radcliffe has been one of the biggest celeb trans ally’s ever. i actually admire him heaps.

For real though is there anyone else here who, apart from being angry, is just really ****ing sad? Like it’ so sad that someone who I considered a literary hero and an inspiring philanthropist turned out to have such bigoted views. 

Idk guys it’s just really sad.
