A letter in the Sunday Independent 🇮🇪 today; related to an article by transphobic author John Boyne who is a public admirer of Rowling (which tells you a lot)

Good on ya, Bernie 🫶

#Ireland #IE #Feminism

Madam, On checking my diaries, I discover that I weighed just under ten stone in 2015, at the time the Gender Recognition Act came into law.

Far from being erased, as John Boyne would have it, there appears to be considerably more of me today. I wholeheartedly support the rights of transgender people to live their best, authentic lives and, as a woman who has been a feminist since the 1970s, I know that this does not affect my rights in any way.

The 10,000 people who marched at Trans and Intersex Pride in Dublin last month would seem to agree. The “greatest sin of our time” is not transphobia but, as so often in our past, the failure to believe women when we tell you who we are.

Two people in vibrant costumes, one with a horned headpiece, celebrating with raised arms, against a backdrop of multicolored flags. A woman with black horns, braces and a dress in transgender flag colors smiles and cheers. Pride flags are poking out of the dress as well.
