You know, I never thought about the fact that quidditch, a game that J.K. Rowling came up with herself is non-gendered. Yet she goes onto social media and screams about how we can’t let trans women compete against the pure and innocent cis girls. Fuck off Rowling.
As I understand, she’s a trans-excluding radical feminist, so within her world view that is probably coherent:
- Ideally, sports should be non-gendered, like quidditch, because everyone has equal chances anyways.
- Where there’s biological differences or social reasons why women have no chance when competing with men, a women’s league should exist, to give women an opportunity for publicity, prizes etc…
Like, the above makes sense, as much as it ever will do. And factually, trans people do blur the line here and point out the fault in this arbitrary system. I can understand having a brainfart, that if only those trans people wouldn’t exist, we wouldn’t have that concept challenged.
But trans people do exist and trans people are fucking fantastic for feminism literally everywhere else. Blurring those lines means that all those systems where cis men are privileged get put into question just as much. It’s so stupid to get hung up on sports and gendered bathrooms.
Comparing a fiction sport to actual sport? That a nice shortcut.
Fuck off, Joanne
