What I think is fascinating here (other than…. Everything) is that she’s also trending into the language of sex negative, anti kink radical feminism. What’s the over under on when she’s going to start saying that it isn’t possible to have consensual sex with men.
Sorry wouldn’t normally put her on the timeline but this might be the most insane thing j k rowlings ever written

It’s a lot like being a Zionist in that it’s an ideology born out of fear and motivated by fear. There’s always something more to be afraid of, always a new way you’re being victimized, no one is safe.

Yeahhhhh I forget who tweeted this but someone said transphobia is making up things to get mad at and…. Yeahhhhhhhh

Like a ratchet always tightening or an addict needing more for a fix.

yep. it's why I have a weird fascination with radfems. misogynistic damage has convinced them that no one consents to anything and people being horny is the cause of all woes in life. this is different from the Church because we say so.

I would pity her if she wasn’t so dangerous but it’s sad how irrationally afraid she is of everyone. Like, get therapy, lady instead of hassling strangers

Terfs internalize that patriarchy is pervasive and brutal, and to be a women is to be subjected to it. Sans liberation work, they fall into self-loathing defensiveness about womanhood. Transwomen especially are suspect because who would voluntarily be a woman? Only someone sick and/or malicious.

I started pestering someone to start thinking about penises and bathrooms and they looked visibly uncomfortable. This is all trans women's fault

Hey straight cis male friend do you want to talk about PENISES??? No???? Why don’t you want to talk about PENISES????

That was ... simultaneously a "things that never happened" and "holy sexual harassment, Batman" in a contortionist performance.

The level of derangement makes me think it's a true story.

The classic, "I'm going to rant about genitals, bathrooms, and changing clothes in front of other people to convince you that *they* are the weirdo fetishists!"

I think the odds are low but JK Rowling becoming a radical feminist lesbian separatist and moving to a farm somewhere would be extremely funny.

I think that’s the only good ending for this narrative arc
Avatar
I mean she has enough money that it might end up being a Michfest/Jonestown mashup. I’m not sure the ending would be good.

Political lesbians drive me up the wall because actual lesbians who are actually attracted to women also have fetishes. We’re not pure beings free of base desire. I want to bring these folks to like ten minutes of a leather dyke party or meetup. I think they’d implode.
Avatar
When I first learned about political lesbians it made me want to scream lmao like loving women isn’t a political exercise it’s a lived reality. Also I would love if my sex partner was actually attracted to me!!!!!!!!

Presuming said farm does not have wifi, or cell service

Someone convince that WiFi makes you trans. Get her linked up with MIA’s anti-5G fashion brand.

Sadly, these types spend a suspicious amount of time online, nevertheless
Avatar
Rowling falling out with a bunch of her TERF allies because she starts calling herself a Political Lesbian would be an incredible plot twist.

I can't be the only one reading this like she backed some dude into a corner and close-talked non-consensual sex things at him, her sour, wine-soaked breath in his face. He squirmed away and now she's reporting back grandly: "HE AND ALL STRAIGHT MEN WON'T HANDLE TRUTH LIKE THEY HANDLE A NEGLIGEE."

Not even joking, if this had been posted as anon, I’d have read the entire encounter as the op being a potential sexual predator. At best oblivious to their toxic disrespect of boundaries. At worst, believing they have a right to other people’s bodies. This is scary

Radical feminism can lead you to really strange places. It's not a surprise that the liveliest branch is animated by transphobia
Avatar
It’s like, is it a good idea to hold the intellectual exercises about sex and consent that radical feminism explores? Yeah sure. But also uhhhhhh don’t take it too serious.
Avatar
There's radical feminist thought that's genuinely radical. They're not all terfs.
Avatar
I'm well aware. But even non-trans obsessed radical feminism has some weird alleys and byways
Avatar
I invited a leftist to my literal castle and started shouting to him across the dinner table about my pet obsession and for some reason he didn't seem thrilled

"I cannot overstate how little he wanted to talk about this" hahahahaha

It was kind of inevitable. Anti sex and queer hatred are pretty much overlapping hot wires in the fascist brain.

I desperately hope this story is made up because that poor poor man
Avatar
Seriously. If real, I hope he distances himself bc he deserves better friends. The kind who respect his boundaries and don’t keep sexually harassing him about his kinks when he’s clearly stated he’s uncomfortable with the subject.
Avatar
Not too far from the SCUM manifesto.

Oh, she is absolutely going to dive headfirst into openly sex-negative, puritanical bullshit at some point. That shit goes hand in hand with “the only correct way to be a Woman TM is to abide by blatantly sexist, reductive guidelines re: appearance and behavior”.

Ah yes, famously still respected and not at all discredited psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. Of course.

The kink bit is super odd. Do one's friends list what they're into? No, not normally, why would they? Well I can put together a panel who can list all straight male kinks. A) Doubt it B) What would be the point? All straight men/people in general are different.
Avatar
Not that the whole thing isn't super odd obvs.

How many times can she type "my friends really don't like talking to me about this thing, the only thing I ever bring up to them anymore" before realizing the real problem?
Avatar
I wonder who she's hanging around that turned her into such a lunatic
Avatar
she certainly seems to be trapped in a hell of her own making

I’m shocked a normal man is friends with her.

It’s like she was holding him at gun point with an increasingly threatening smile.
