JK Rowling has revealed that her family members begged her to maintain her controversial views on transgender points non-public. The 'Harry Potter' creator, who has confronted intense backlash for claiming that trans girls “aren't girls,” revealed her views in an essay. Rowling confessed that she initially remained silent resulting from requests from these near her. “Folks round me, together with some I really like, have been begging me to not communicate,” JK Rowling stated. Rowling's place grew to become public in 2019, when she supported researcher Maya Forstater, who was fired for questioning gender self-identification insurance policies. In 2020, Rowling criticized the time period “individuals who menstruate,” prompting accusations of trans-exclusive radical feminism (TERF). 'Harry Potter' actor Daniel Radcliffe condemned her feedback and pressured that “transgender girls are girls.”
