Last week, The Daily Wire reported that GLAAD representatives tried to smear Harry Potter creator J.K. Rowling for her “support of Anti-Trans researcher Maya Forstater”, by saying Rowling “has now aligned herself with an anti-science ideology that denies the basic humanity of people who are transgender.” For the record, Forstater is a biologist who lost her job for stating that changing one’s outward appearance does not alter one’s biological sex. Rowling did not align herself with any “ideology” and neither she nor Forstater said anything about anyone’s humanity. All Rowling said is that Biology is real, and anyone should be free to say so.
GLAAD have thus taken the ridiculous position that the science of Biology is “an anti-science ideology”. Their threats mean little to one of the wealthiest and most popular women on earth. In blasting Rowling, GLAAD have seriously overplayed their hand, injuring the true cause of transgender individuals everywhere. SHAME ON YOU, GLAAD! Don’t you have any real battles to fight?
