For JK Rowling, the definition of woman must remain the one she has always known; and this is how the British author, who has been making controversial speeches for many years, has chosen to donate £70,000 to For Women Scotlandan association that fights against the rights granted to trans women in the world, and that the creator of the brand Harry Potter
approves… A new controversial release from the billionaire author, who for years has provoked a number of controversies following releases that have more than doubts about the LGBT community, and more specifically about transidentity.
JK Rowling has chosen to make this donation to For Women Scotland following a judicial review pronounced against this organization defending the rights of non-trans women. The Supreme Court recorded this decision this Friday, February 16, 2024, which JK Rowling saw fit to publicly oppose. She therefore decided to contribute to the legal costs necessary to appeal this decision, and donated 70,000 pounds to the foundation, the equivalent of $88,000or 81,000 euros… In a press release, the author declared: “You know how proud I am to know you; thank you for your hard work and perseverance. This is a historic affair.”.
She would rather go to prison than grant rights to trans people
Crowdfunding launched and driven by JK Rowling, already reached 102,000 pounds ($128,000) in a few days, out of 807 pledges, i.e. a significant average of 126 pounds (147 euros) per donor. For several years, this association has fought, alongside the author, so that the British definition of the word “woman” is not modified, and that trans women do not obtain the same rights as non-trans women. A transphobia that the author of Harry Potter
has always assumed, even indicating last October that she preferred “go to jail”rather than giving trans people the correct pronouns. Out of the question for her to call “She” a trans woman, and “He” a trans man… And long live tolerance!
