I have never heard of Harry Jowsey, but if this write-up about him is accurate, it sounds like the author found nine celebrities making transphobic comments and then just added this random homophobe so that the headline could say 10? Am I missing something?

It was someone the author knew from school.

Ha ha! Not because I haven't heard of him, I meant the article's description of him is that he dated a trans woman and is supportive of transwomen.

The thing he did that's phobic, according to this article, is he called James Charles a f****, which is homophobic, not transphobic.

Ironically when I googled this I found James Charles seems to have said some transphobic things about not being 100% gay because he is attracted to transgender men. Maybe he could take this list slot.
