Has JK Rowling made HER dna public? How do we know she isn't hiding anything??? Make the results public, JK!

[–] KurtVonnegut@hexbear.net 72 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Also, not that it matters, but a "DNA test" is not how you find out if someone has XX, XY, or XXY chromosomes. The word Rowling is looking for is "Karyotype." But hey, if she knew how gender science worked, she probably would not be a TERF.

[–] IzyaKatzmann@hexbear.net 32 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Dang I took bio in uni and I forgot the word karyotype existed. No excuses for rowling, I refer to others as they identify instead of focusing on "oBjEcTiVe eSsEnTiAl LiFe FoRcEs" like DNA.

They still have the british eugenics society over there, though after their second name change they are now the Adelphi Genetics Forum, I like using their old name though since I think it represents them better.

Adelphi Genetics Forum

definitely doesn't sound like an evil corporation from a 90s sci-fi game

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 12 points 2 weeks ago

Sounds like the areana the most fascist NHL team would play in. Probably the Canucks or Bruins

My 10th grade bio was in French and my 11th grade in English. I remember the terminology still cause translating everything was hard

[–] Alisu@hexbear.net 7 points 2 weeks ago

Also, there are cis women, born with a vagina, that have xy chromosomes, the same is true for xx men. So, the karyotype means nothing, essentially

We’ll find out she’s a Squib

Well, the entire Harry Potter idea, from the "child born of a witch and a wizard survives the murder of his parents and is left with a mysterious magical mark by their attacker in a contemporary setting" to the fucking name Harry Potter itself is from a 1980s movie called Troll, so in a way yeah she's a "squib" in that she didn't really "conjure up" the setting to begin with.

That one is associated to the first movie roughly by the title alone, far as I can recall.

[–] Tabitha@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago

maybe it'll be the inspiration for Harry Potter 2?

[–] kleeon@hexbear.net 71 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

lol do they think Imane Khelif owes them something? Why would she prostrate herself to satisfy some bigots on the internet?

I hope she fucking destroys these people in court

The dark sorceress of TERF Island: "Isn't there someone you forgot to ask?"

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 39 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

sorceress

giving the TERF supreme too much credit and coolness factor that she does not possess

[–] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's funny, but not funny haha how transphobia necessarily replaces being chill and cool. It's such a centralizing belief that all your interactions and pontifications revolve around some sort of authenticity of nature and wearing masks and shit. It's like yeah, I like masks, but only after I exercise the dark spirit of Majora out of them or wear them at fancy parties while in a cop&robber romance.

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 17 points 2 weeks ago

When you reach the transvestigate point of transphobia I don't think you can become a normal person anymore, atleast not without the same level of re-education that the GDR-emblem did for former nazis

When you're so deranged and consumed by transphobia that even when lawyers advise you to shut the fuck up, you can't help yourself but to continue digging your own grave.

[–] gay_king_prince_charles@hexbear.net 35 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

To avoid a repeat of this discussion, this isn't a libel thing, it's an online harassment thing (https://www.service-public.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F32239?lang=en) and a complaint, not a lawsuit. So contrary to popular belief, there isn't any burden of proof on anyone here because it doesn't matter what the truth is for this type of thing.

[–] FungiDebord@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

So the relief that can be granted is just blocking access to/or removing Rowling's tweets from the French internet?

[–] gay_king_prince_charles@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't think they can do that. The punishment would be a fine on Rowling but I don't know if they have jurisdiction. I expect nothing to come of this.

[–] TomBombadil@hexbear.net 27 points 2 weeks ago

I think JKR is an in human reptilian who should be captured for scientific study. If she disagrees all she has to do is take a few DNA tests in public to prove she's not a reptile. If she doesn't do so within 48 hrs of now that's proof I'm right

[–] bazingabrain@hexbear.net 22 points 2 weeks ago

we have libel laws? i didnt even know lol

[–] ryepunk@hexbear.net 21 points 2 weeks ago

Do they still have guillotines around there? Could be fun to bring it back just as a treat for the people.

Can someone explain the whole black mold thing? Does it actually make you go crazy?

[–] SSJMarx@lemm.ee 32 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Black mold has a host of side effects but AFAIK doesn't actually impair cognitive function, it's just a meme. IMO the effect is actually reversed - it's the transphobia that has effected JK's cognitive function, to the point that she allowed black mold to form in her house.

They made a documentary about it called Resident Evil 7: Biohazard
