Just a regular woman worried about our children and the protection of vulnerable women.

when we can no longer discuss issues that affect all of us and express our views without fear of retaliation, we are living in a fascist, authoritarian state a la Orwell1984

Signed because I dislike bullies. JK Rowling has expressed her views in a moderate considered way. She is entitled to hold these views others are entitled to disagree. Difference in opinion & beliefs is not hate. I find the pressure to pillory her / silence her sinister.

As a feminist, my admiration, respect & gratitude for JK Rowling could not be greater. Women’s rights are being battered & JK’s voice has helped so much to raise awareness. ❤️❤️❤️

Abuse, threats of violence and intimidation - all tools used to try and silence the voices of those who dare to raise questions. Utterly abhorrent. I stand in solidarity with JK Rowling.

I support people with body and dysphoria to get the help that they need, however I not believe that people can change sex. Not do I believe that anybody pointing this out should be vilified.

I am a published writer, and I think the ways Ms. Rowlings has been attacked are indefensible.

I’m just exhausted by the amount of hate directed at women who say perfectly reasonable things

I am appalled that Twitter in particular permits vile misogynist abuse.

If social media platforms continue to condone harassment against women perhaps they need to internationalized, sued by victims, or taxed into oblivion.

Gender is regressive. It relies entirely on stereotypes. Gender is being sold as a substitute for growing into a person(ality). But there are no shortcuts. You cannot *be* what you haven't *become*.

Make misogyny a hate crime. An actual criminal act like racism or homophobia
