JK was the least surprising for me. She has been a TERF for a long time, and has cozied up to fascists. She is the worst kind of human

The irony of course being JK’s insistence that she’s just trying to “protect women” and yet she’s the one helping to instigate this abuse of a woman.
Funny to think that JK’s self-insert character in HP turned out to be Umbridge.
"But XY means man!"... unless it doesn't:
The wild thing is this is Genetics 101. There are entire sections of textbooks dedicated to how weird sex is. It usually covers birds and reptiles where ZW is female and ZZ is male. And mushrooms go crazy with many sexes and reproductive strategies that make one's head spin.
I feel like a lot of the elementary curriculum should be updated to the current "101"s of each subject... and everyone should get a "refresher" course, maybe every 10 years, to learn the diff changes.
It would also help to stop treating kids like they're all stupid; stop teaching oversimplified versions of subjects, only to some years later go "Oh BTW, what we taught you before, that was BS, learn this one instead".
Yuuup. She is doing nothing but harming women and either can't or won't do any kind of introspection
Yeah, I don't understand people who have literally everything in life feeling some weird need to make up reasons to feel oppressed.
And yeah, when she decided to make friends with the fascists, I decided anything I ever buy again with her name attached to it will be bought second hand so she doesn't profit from it.
Maybe there should only be one Olympic class. No male or female. No heavyweight or featherweight. No drug tests. Just the best of the best. Über Olympics!
Maybe classes should be based on objective measurements like weight, height, number of limbs, and similar, not on subjective stuff like "doesn't look girly enough".
Lol short bald kings with glass!
I want a category where all contestants are required to compete in high heels.
That would be pretty darn cool.
