hahaha I'm so glad I found this screencap because I'm not letting him forget this. He SAID to ignore her earlier this year yet he continues to fill every minute of his life ranting about every single word she writes

Transphobes get upset about trans people pointing out our place in history all the time. Reasons for this vary, but, in my opinion, it’s often linked to certain narratives which are common amongst the anti-trans crowd. One such narrative is the idea that modern trans people are an entirely distinct and separate group from previous groups of trans people. Narratives like this allow the transphobe to attempt to maintain that they are not transphobic by having an imagined group of trans people they support to contrast with the modern group of trans people they oppose. JK Rowling herself has engaged in this via her “I will march with you if you’re oppressed” tweets. An attempt to maintain the idea she is not transphobic on the inhale while using the exhale to later call prominent transgender women “men cosplaying fantasies of women” on social media. Another tactic is to try and shift the blame for why a trans person or trans people may have been targeted away from their transness and onto something else. In my view, JK Rowling does this when she suggests that any damages to trans people, healthcare and research were incidental as the real target was gay people. This tactic is grimly obvious when looking at the transphobic response to murdered trans people, especially murdered trans women of colour in the US. These women often have a history of sex work and drug use – two very common avenues for bigots to shift the blame to while ignoring how those intersections of race and gender disproportionately result in survival sex work. We even saw attempts to minimise the consequences of transphobia  surrounding the trial for the murderers of Brianna Ghey here in the UK with outlets quick to claim hate crime had been dismissed. The purpose of this tactic is usually to maintain separation between anti-trans hostility and anti-trans violence. The transphobe needs to maintain that their beliefs are but mere beliefs that couldn’t hurt anyone in isolation. But they are not in isolation. They form part of a much larger picture which includes decades of anti-trans abuses, a wholesale denial and erasure of the existence of trans people and the world’s most famous author calling for doctors supporting trans youth to face charges. This kind of rhetoric only has one outcome in my opinion. One we’ve been able to measure as we watch the statistics regarding hate crimes against trans people continue to rise at a staggering rate. Another statistic transphobes have also worked, and failed, at waving away. But they don’t really need to convince you or me, they only need to convince themselves – and that’s a low bar to get over.

As the For Women Scotland v Scottish Government Supreme Court appeal hearing wraps up, I thought it was time to bring my pick of posts from X, including some of my own, to Tumblr. It feels like the tide is starting to turn with regards to the culture war around gender and I'd like to document that somewhere. Tumblr seems like the best place for that, (famous last words).

Anyway, to start of my collection, here are some screenshots from my feed from day two.

■ Here we have India Willoughby demonstrating why women are still fighting to retain our single sex spaces by keeping men out. India is so completely wrapped up in what this could potentially mean for trans people and his deeply narcissistic self, that he completely overlooks that it's an appeal being held in the highest court in the UK involving high ranking judges and KCs. According to India, it's lacking representation from the trans community. Let me know when a transwoman or transman gets appointed to the position of judge or KC, and we'll talk. Until then, accept that a trans identity doesn't allow you to encroach on every single event or gathering happening in the UK. Following on from that whine, we have his considered opinion on the livestream. It's no great mystery why he's so disliked by GC people, and by some of his own community, (but that's another story).

■ The second day, where Scottish Government was stating their case, delivered quite a few "WTF" moments around men becoming pregnant or being lesbians, thanks to gender recognition certificates.

■ The case for Scottish Government delivered a lot of cringe and the delivery was somewhat faltering and unconvincing, such that I had to keep stepping away to de-cringe.

■ I did rejoin the stream at just the right time to pull me back from the abyss though. I joined just as Aidan O'Neill was delivering his barnstorming final words.

■ I may have a new crush ...

■ A recording of day 2 is now available

“In the interview, Willoughby said, "For J.K. Rowling to deliberately misgender me knowing who I am is grossly offensive. It is a hate crime.”

J.K. Rowling: Misgendered Broadcaster

J.K. Rowling has been reported to the police for repeatedly misgendered a British broadcaster by the name of India Willoughby. India claims that Rowling has repeatedly misgendered India online on purpose because of an ongoing feud that they have. India is the ex-Celebrity Big Brother contestant who’s a transgender woman says that Rowling consistently referred to her as a man despite her legal…

If anything, Rowling isn't trolling him hard enough. Jonathan Willoughby deserves all the mockery he gets.

Here's a small sampling of him being racist:

Homophobic:

'Transphobic'

Ageist

And that's not even getting into his rabid misogyny. Defending him is the last hill anyone should ever want to die on.

For a group that shouts how much they hate cops, men in dresses have no hesitancy to call the cops on women who hurt their gender feelz

By Jennifer Sieland March 9, 2024

British broadcaster India Willoughby is claiming that Northumbria Police have logged a “Non Crime Hate Incident” against Harry Potter creator JK Rowling after he reported the beloved author for “misgendering” him.

While Willoughby has long expressed his contempt of Rowling, having made hundreds of tweets about her gender critical statements over the years, the tension came to a head this week after Rowling stated that Willoughby did not “become a woman.”

On March 3, Rowling made a post in support of women’s single-sex spaces, which trans activists quickly clamored under to interrogate.

“Why should trans women be forced to use male spaces? Don’t you understand just how humiliating for us that would be? Or don’t you care?” one user questioned, to which Rowling replied: “Somebody really should have explained to you that your hurt feelings don’t trump other people’s rights, nor are women and girls validation props or comfort blankets.”

Another user, by the name of Socialist Stanley, then confronted Rowling with a gif of British broadcaster and trans activist India Willoughby, writing: “Hi Joanne, so you are saying this lady should use the men’s locker room then?!”

Rowling responded: “India didn’t become a woman. India is cosplaying a misogynistic male fantasy of what a woman is.”

Willoughby, born Jonathan, began claiming to be a woman in 2015 at the age of 50, officially becoming the UK’s first transgender newsreader. He has previously incited criticism for boasting of getting a “designer vagina,” which he said he chose from a catalogue like “going for a haircut.”

An off-duty bartender has been convicted of a “hate” motivated crime after shoving and misgendering a trans-identified male in the washroom of a bar. On March 6, Cassandra McIntyre was found guilty of second-degree bias crime and harassment charges stemming from a 2022 confrontation with a man who identifies as a “woman.”

According to journalist Andy Ngo, McIntyre had just finished her shift at Jake’s Place, a sports bar in Portland, when she encountered far-left activist Riis Larsen, formerly Ronald A. Larsen, in the women’s washroom. Clearly startled, McIntyre told Larsen to “get out” of the intimate space.

Surveillance footage shows McIntyre lightly pushing Larsen, who identifies as a “queer demi-binary trans woman,” after he shoved another person to cut in line for the washroom.
