I don’t get it suck

[@Urbanclubstyle]

???

[@miralyse.3846]

though apparently it's too difficult for her to imagine how a trans person feels.

[@DavieD609]

Not really, she’s never said anything against trans people. Perhaps you should learn to read

[@gabrielkakaa111]

@@DavieD609 You cannot be serious...

[@dragonbane44]

@@gabrielkakaa111 Rowling said she believes in biologically determined s*x. And that kids should not get the decision to change their gender. And she does not approve of trans-woman participating in women's sports. All of which are right. So, where is the problem?
