    On one hand it's disappointing. Her novels appear to be very inclusive and diverse. A true model. And if she's got an issue that's just disappointing. That said, if you do anything with children people look to accuse and tear you down with no evidence to support the case. it's happened several times now. She wouldn't be the first to be falsely drag through the mud. So I need to know more.

    I can’t believe she’s getting attacked for this ****, I mean yea let’s get rid of the concept of sex and biological attributes. This **** is ridiculous. Everybody has the right to their own views and to be treated with respect, let’s leave it at that

    I don't have a strong opinion either way. Transsexuals should live lives without fear of abuse or nerve wracking discrimination, but I don't think I'm open minded enough to date one.

    Must be the 80s and 90s TV programming that @tinman knows about.

    Not sure if I can support "cancelling" JK Rowling if I can laugh at Chapelle's latest set on Netflix. But I get how her tweets come off as trivializing to some people.

    P.S.
    Pre-Quarantine: No, unless you pay me
    Quarantine: Yes, and w/o a mask.

    If you want to have sex with a dude, that is up to you. But that is what you are doing.

    Did you know that Dolores Umbridge wrote a best-selling and beloved children's series before she turned to peddling her bigotry and trying to influence youth to the dark side?

    On the topic of JK , Maybe after a few beers .... almost all of them look good thru beer goggles.

    On the thread derailment ....

    So .... let me get this straight: If a he want to calls himself a she , I'm suppose to play along or I'm being a bigot ?

    Honestly I don't believe I've ever met a transgender person .... if I did , I didn't know it , know quite a few L G B and Q's but no T's. And really , what's the difference ?

    What's the proper response ? .... I'd probably ignore the elephant in the room ? You do you ....
