J.K. Rowling Promotes Anti-Trans Online Store To Her 14 Million Twitter Followers
J.K. Rowling promoted an online store that sells transphobic merchandise to her 14 million Twitter followers. One of the store’s merchandise also includes pins that say “Trans women are men.”
The ‘Harry Potter’ author plugged a T-shirt there Twitter account that said, “This witch doesn’t burn,” possibly a reference to how she has faced criticism for her constant anti-trans remarks over the last several months.
In the tweet, she directed people to the online store that sells the T-shirt: the wild womyn workshop.
As ‘LGBTQ Nation’ reports, the wild womyn workshop is a U.K.-based online store that bills itself as selling “a range of unique and beautifully designed items for radical womyn.” An entire section of the online store is labeled “Gender Critical,” a euphemism for transphobia.
Some of the items for sale at that store include pins that are direct attacks on trans people, like: “Transwomen [sic] are men”, “Woman is not a costume”, “Transmen [sic] are my sisters”, “Transactivism is misogyny” while other merchandise proudly claims words like “TERF” and “transphobe,” much like how racists, homophobes, and conservatives in 2016 proudly called themselves “deplorables” after Hillary Clinton called them that.
And, lastly, the wild womyn workshop stands with J.K. Rowling.
