| Rowling doch nicht Anti-Trans? |  |
ich habe (vermutlich) den Fehler gemacht mir die Sache mal genauer anzuschauen. Folgende Tweets werden JK also zur Last gelegt:
‘People who menstruate.’ I’m sure there used to be a word for those people. Someone help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud?'
Damit macht sie sich offenbar darüber lustig, dass man das Wort 'Frau' nicht mehr verwenden darf, das ist alles.
weiter geht's:
'If sex isn’t real, there’s no same-sex attraction. If sex isn’t real, the lived reality of women globally is erased. I know and love trans people, but erasing the concept of sex removes the ability of many to meaningfully discuss their lives. It isn’t hate to speak the truth.'
'The idea that women like me, who’ve been empathetic to trans people for decades, feeling kinship because they’re vulnerable in the same way as women - ie, to male violence - ‘hate’ trans people because they think sex is real and has lived consequences - is a nonsense.'
'I respect every trans person’s right to live any way that feels authentic and comfortable to them. I’d march with you if you were discriminated against on the basis of being trans. At the same time, my life has been shaped by being female. I do not believe it’s hateful to say so.'
'Many health professionals are concerned that young people struggling with their mental health are being shunted towards hormones and surgery when this may not be in their best interests.'
'Many, myself included, believe we are watching a new kind of conversion therapy for young gay people, who are being set on a lifelong path of medicalisation that may result in the loss of their fertility and/or full sexual function.'
Sie spricht sich gegen eine voreilige Hormonbehandlung und Geschlechtsumwandlung von Teenagern aus, und der Fall 'Tavistock Center' bestätigt ihre Aussage:
BBC:
'The NHS is to close the UK's only dedicated gender identity clinic for children and young people.'
'Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust has been told to shut the clinic by spring after it was criticised in an independent review.
...
'The Tavistock has faced increasing pressure in recent years.
There were rising referrals and a long waiting list but at the same time some former staff were raising concerns about the way it operated.
Then, former patient Keira Bell went to court saying she had not been challenged enough about her decision at 16 to take drugs that began her transition from female to male - a decision she later regretted.'

J.K. Rowling scheint also doch eine recht vernünftige Person zu sein.
Ich sehe hier keinen Hass gegenüber Trans-Menschen, im Gegenteil, und ich glaube, das ist auch gar nicht der Punkt. Ihr Fehler war es, sich über das Vokabel-Diktat einiger radikaler Fanatiker lustig zu machen.
Und dasselbe Problem hat jetzt auch Gronkh, einer der liebenswertesten Menschen überhaupt. Seine Aussagen werden aus dem Kontext gerissen und auch er wird von einigen kaputten Irren bedroht und belästigt. Dabei steht er nicht mal auf Rowlings Seite, sie ist ihm lediglich 'egal'.
Die Welt ist verrückt geworden.
