      I've just finished reading the whole of the post by @jk_rowling It only increases my admiration for her -a deeply empathetic human. The attacks on her are utterly unjustified. Read her own words: https://www.jkrowling.com/opinions/j-k-rowling-writes-about-her-reasons-for-speaking-out-on-sex-and-gender-issues/ …

      This helpfully breaks down why Rowling is neither empathetic nor admirable in her writing: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1270787941275762689.html …

      That’s an excellent detailed refutation of Rowling’s transphobic nonsense. Bookmarking.

          Replying to @gorskon @NewNewOriginal and

          JK Rowling's behavior is like claiming there are only four blood groups in a society where many people with Rh+ are made homeless or murdered due to bigotry. Not a perfect analogy, but many fail to understand that simplified models are not the full scientific picture.

          No it isn’t. Please stop using sophistry based on the existence of disorders of sex development to prop up your bizarre trans ideology.

          Gorski is the editor of the Science-Based Medicine website and debunks a lot of medical pseudoscience. It's baffling and depressing to see him in thrall to motivated reasoning.

          It’s not excellent, and the detail is wrong in almost all cases. It’s a transparent, sloppy hatchet jobhttps://twitter.com/void_if_removed/status/1270835001073045507?s=20 …

          1a - false. Non renewal of fixed contract is the same thing, legally, and has the same rights and protections. 1b - false. You can tell this because "belief" is a protected category in the 2010 EA under which the case was brought. 1d - false. They do. All the time. pic.twitter.com/TuY8o3PGwC

          Go ahead. Retweet it everywhere - it was totally debunked when it first appeared so you do your cause no favours by doing so.
