Since then the writer blows online a stiff breeze, in which Daniel Radcliffe (30) now, the Hermione-Granger-actress Emma Watson (30) as a front-runner.
On Twitter, she wrote: “TRANS people deserve to live their lives without being constantly questioned and not get told that you are who you are.” In addition to the two “Harry Potter”-Stars of the main concerns now cast of the “Fantastic beasts”, Eddie Redmayne (38), position. “As someone who has worked with J. K. Rowling as well as with members of the Trans Community closely together, I would like to make it clear, what is the position I represent here: I can’t agree with Jos comments, absolutely,” he says to Variety. He did not want to speak for his Transgender friends, but he was aware that you have the constant debates about their identities enough. “TRANS women are women, TRANS men are men, and non-binary identities have a permission.”
The author was a victim of domestic violence
Joanne K. Rowling resists to be transphob. On your Website the author has now written an Essay about your motivations to talk about gender issues. In it, you can be deep into your soul looks and speaks about the Fears that plague them. Because J. K. Rowling was violence in her first marriage victims of domestic. “The scars left by the violence and sexual Assault, will not disappear, no matter how much you’re loved and how much money you have earned,” she writes. But what has this to do with the TRANS-gender issue?
Rowling was involved for years with TRANS issues, have TRANS-met people, and Research. Your interest for the topic was professional but also personal reasons. You worry about how the rights of women by some forms of Trans activism would be affected. “I think that most of the TRANS people need not only not a threat to others, but protection and deserve,” says Rowling.

So you want TRANS women to be sure. At the same time, you don’t want to compromise the security of native girls and women. “If you open the doors of bathrooms and changing rooms for each man who believes he is a woman, or how one feels – and, as I said, sex certificates, can now be without surgery or hormones issued, then it opens the door for all men who want to get into it”, tries to explain the British.

Rowling seems to have a fear of misuse of this scheme: “This means, in effect, that a man, to be “a woman”, have to say is that he is one.” (bsn)
