The comment by the author "Harry Potter" about transgender, caused a huge wave of other comments and discussions. Joan Rowling opposed the erase of the border between biological and transgender women. It is confused by the fact that activists began to denote natural women with the concept of "menstruating people." Also, Rowling is experiencing that now "a man in order to be considered a woman, it is enough to simply say that he is a woman." This, in her opinion, can hit women's security.
Rowling position caused the rage of many representatives of the LGBT community and other activists. Recently, the star of films about Harry Potter Emma Watson also spoke on this occasion. She, unlike Joan, is peacefully tuned towards transgenders and believes that they are those who feel themselves.
Trans-people are those who they consider themselves. And they deserve to live without standing questions or comments on the fact that they are not those who believe themselves. I want trans-people among my subscribers to know that I and many more people know about you, respect and love those you are,
- wrote recently in Twitter Emma.
Previously, Daniel Radcliffe apologized to the fans for the words of Joan, who became painful for some.
Transgender women are women. Any converse statement erases the personality and dignity of transgender people and is contrary to the opinion of professional healthcare associations that have much more experience in this area than Joan or me. Everyone, whose perception of books [about Harry Potter] was dying, I apologize for the pain that those comments brought. I really hope that this story will not lose its value for you,
- said Daniel.
