Biological sex is absolutely real but it is still more than a binary and having your sex changed to match your identity is real and valid. Maya seems very anti-trans and that is not okay. I thought you supported all people. (Not debating the law here just the anti-transness)

Sex is binary and immutable (it's your gamete class). Nobody should be harassed or discriminated against for their gender expression, but being forced to pretend that sex doesn't exist is basically theocratic. And sex class has a huge impact on women which we need to discuss.

I grew up as a trans child reading your books as an escape. I would often pick out names from characters to give to myself, before I ever felt comfortable in who I was. This decision, to support people that hate me, and want to do me harm. It brings me to tears... Why. Why?

Well, J.K., I appreciate you finally admitting to the rest of the world what the company you follow says to everyone- you’re transphobic. You’re also defending someone that was fired for being transphobic. As a transgender woman, it tells me all I’ll ever need to know about you.

Great. We’ll keep her. She’s amazing

The saddest thing is that the woman who inspired millions of kids to be good to each other, include each other despite our differences and stand up against those who would oppress us - is now a bigot herself. Good job.

My daughter, who is trans, is a big fan of yours. It breaks my heart to see you post something indicating that discrimination against her is perfectly fine behaviour for an employee. The world’s most credible medical orgs affirm trans people. Please catch up.

.@jk_rowling knows that magic belongs in works of fiction. Sadly, too many people have bought into the idea that magic is real & we really can change our sex. It's caused all sorts of problems for society, and trans people in particular. We need better. Please join my campaign.
