To all the feminists out there who are transphobic. Transgender women are women. Need I remind you that Ttansgender people are in the top of victims of hate crimes world wide and suffer tremendous psychological and physical abuse due to society’s persecution of them. 1/7
Transgender women existing does not discredit your existence as a woman. If you were actually secure in your womanhood you wouldn’t need to go on these vitriols about transgender people. So, to @jk_rowling and other so called feminists 2/7
Your womanhood is no less valid with or without transgender people. Your harmful words and ignorant claims make it harder for them.I don’t understand how you wrote those books which are based in love can pretend that they are allies whilst trying to discredit people’s voices.3/7
Your words matter because of your platform. For so many of us, though I’m not transgender, your books have been a source of comfort. Now you’re ruining that. How can anyone read them again and truly believe in love and triumph in the same way?4/7
There are no lgbt characters in the books or films. You only tried to say Dumbledore was gay after the fact so you could pretend to be inclusive. Words like yours incentivize actions from those more radical. Remember that. I hope you understand you’ve hurt many people. 5/7
Language like you used is what hate groups used to criminalize people. It’s what Hitler used to criminalize Jews. By trying to invalidate Transgender people’s identities, you are attempting to invalidate their very existence as humans. 6/7
I don’t know if you’ll see this thread, but if you do, I hope you will use it in a positive way to educate yourself. I know the woman who wrote those books has love in her heart. I hope in time you will have it for everyone. @jk_rowling #TransWomenareWomen
