Does JK Rowling not realize...

...that many, many, many of the transphobic comrades in arms who share her Big Thoughts^TM on the immutability of sex also hold very specific attitudes about the immorality of:

• single motherhood,
• working mothers,
• women's participation in public spaces,
• social programs, and
• family planning

among others? Setting aside the odiousness of her recent statements for their own sake, it's amazing to me that she's oblivious to the fact, from a completely self-interested standpoint, the people who share these views on sex and gender are not her friends.

To inject some levity into the situation, the current wank at least gave us this from Forbes, whose author seems as upset that HP fans are Interrogating This Text From The Wrong Perspective as he is by Rowling's bullshittery.

Never change, Fandom.

some of the TERF/radfem groups have EXPLICITLY allied themselves with the Christian right
That's scary. It's amazing that they'd come to that conclusion versus the seemingly logical and self-apparent one: the Christian right thinks of you as useful tools and will go after you as soon as you've served their purpose. Again, these people are not your friends.
