Despite fame for being the creator of ‘Harry Potter,’ the best-selling book series in history (with over 500 million copies sold as of time reported), JK Rowling is considered a posterchild of ‘trans-exclusionary feminism’ – a title earned for years of doubling down on her beliefs against transwomen.
Easily the biggest stain on her otherwise pristine career, the author appears ready to add one more ‘F-U’ to her detractors by announcing a show of support for embattled Soul singer Macy Gray, who recently came under fire for the controversial comment “just because you go change your parts, doesn’t make you a woman.”
As Gray braved the backlash – which included some longtime fans promising to boycott streaming her music and attending her concerts – Rowling took to Twitter to suggest she’s willing to pick up any slack the negative press causes.
Tuesday morning (July 5), JK didn’t appear to be “jk” when she responded to a Gray critic who suggested the singer’s career was over due to the transphobic comments.
“Today feels like a good day to ensure I’ve bought [Macy Gray’s] entire back catalogue,” said Rowling.
Though she didn’t expound with details, the message of support was loud and clear to many who already despised the best-selling writer for her previous anti-trans sentiments.
Gray’s catalog consists of multiple compilation albums, a live album, and ten studio albums, which have collectively sold over 25 million copies worldwide.
She’s best known for her debut studio effort, ‘On How Life Is’ (1999), which sold over 7 million copies worldwide and features her first and only Hot 100 top 10 hit, ‘I Try.’

Doesn’t she have like one hit song? I’m sure it cost like 20 dollars cause ain’t no one has Bough a Macy Gary music in years!
Gworl shut the hell up
NOW this right here is a great example of Sisterhood. Macy Gray took the fall but JK came through and held her down.
More women need to do the same. Standing up for any cause can have serious consequences. Knowing others have ur back makes it worth it.
How about we quit hating each other and hating on trans people.
Telling facts isn’t hating.
Mayo spread all over a Shyt sandwhich. Greys like JK chasing clout with Moosie Gray and her one hit song from decades ago. She looks like a praying mantis! Is SHE even a woman! Sorry gurls, Twitter still coming for you. Obsessed with trans people who are like .0002% of the population. Leave ’em alone and find some real big bad bully to fight like Russia, QAnon idiots, white cops, etc.
Just shut up and accept the truth just because you can accept the truth dosent mean she is not allowed to speak….say whatever you want a men is a men and will ever stay a men no surgey or wig in the world can change that. A Woman will never become a men!
You are a moose wearing a wig. I just know it!
Who typed this for you, considering you have giant moose knuckles…
By the way, it’s…a man is a man, not a “men is a men” and “A Woman will never be a men!” is also WRONG.
Tell the human typing for you to make corrections. Bye, Moose..,
Here we go… always playing victim and hurling insults. No one insulted the trans community. Your balls are showing.
Twitter? Twitter is a cesspool of mentally ill people who think their uneducated, low tier opinion means anything. You must be a regular.
I don’t know about JKR. I don’t remember what she said and I don’t care.
But I’m not sure what Macy said is « anti » trans. She just said there’s still a biological difference. No matter how much surgery you get… nature is nature. Apparently it’s wrong and insulting to say that. Geeeeez.
She never said « it’s wrong » or « I can’t stand transexuals » or any of that.
But we live in a world where everything has got to be politically correct. The whole stupid American woke culture. Another stupidity made in America.
Anyway everyone should be free to be who they want to be without any judgement or discrimination. But we should also stop creating controversy over every little thing that comes out of people’s mouth.
Exactly this. No one insulted the trans community yet look at them trying to destroy Macy Gray for speaking truth. Any other time it’s “follow the science” but whenever it comes to trans we must believe delusions. Nature never lies.
Exactly, nature is nature. You can get all the cosmetic and plastic surgery you want, you will look like a woman, identify as a woman, but biologically speaking, you’ll never be one. Just facts. And no shade. But apparently it’s transphobia to say such things.
Like calling out straight guys transphobic if they don’t want to date a trans woman. Transphobic would be hating on them, verbal or physical violence based on the fact they are trans.
But you can be totally ok with it yet not being your thing because you’re straight and want a relationship with a woman. Point blank.
#TheTruth spitting the truth on this fine Humpday morning. I agree with every word you said. And this is coming from someone who’s a part of the LGBTQ community…. 👏🏼
You guys really need to learn objectivity. Theyre allowed their viewpoint. Its not anti trans. Theyve made it clear that they support trans rights, but that doesnt mean that womens rights and status should be submerged as a result. Trans women can be accepted as women on a social/societal level, however they are not biologically women. Thats scientific fact. Changing ideologies and fluid social norms cant change that. There are clear and undeniable differences between trans women and biological women that mean whilst they should absolutely be equal in rights, they shouldnt be lumped together as the same thing. Things like bathroom sharing and the merging of competitive events is completely unacceptable and people with this entirely logical and understandable viewpoint should not be harassed and classed as anti trans.
Very well spoken
100%. Having trans women in women’s teams is unacceptable. Suddenly you’re at the top while you were mediocre in the males team.
How about we cancel gender based competitions then ?
This day was bound to come lol 😬
I don’t necessarily agree with what JK Rowling has been saying but to cancel her and exclude her from her own creations (Harry Potter) is not right.
Of course she did: bigots of a feather flock together.
What’s bigoted about what Macy Gray said?
Anytime you reduce and dismiss someone’s humanity due to their s**, sexuality or body parts is at the very least bigoted and at the most fatal. If you’re interested more in my thoughts check out the other thread on this site where I further go into my perspective on the topic or better yet read the book called Scared Straught: Why It’s So Hard To Accept Gay People and Why It’s So Hard to Be Human.
Congratulations , you said a bunch of nothing. Macy Gray is not transphobic. You bullies need to leave her alone.
This is what I was talking about in the other post, people taking things out of context to fit a certain narrative. At no point in time did Macy suggest that trans people are subhuman. If Macy’s words triggered anyone, it’s because they want to believe that biology doesn’t matter. It does matter, or else female inmates in New Jersey prisons wouldn’t be getting pregnant by transwomen all because the courts are making decisions that slowly eat away at womens rights. They’re trying to redefine science and strip away what they can to ensure that men remain dominant and womanhood becomes nothing more than a figment of one’s imagination.
Aww, you probably thought that was intelligent. Nobody’s humanity was dismissed because someone stated a fact of biology. There’s a similar disorder where people think they’re supposed to be blind so they chemically blind themselves. There’s another similar disorder where people think they’re a different race. There’s this one lady who went and permanently died her skin to look black. Yea, these are all humans who need attention and care, but giving into their disorder and telling them they’re something they’re not is not equipping them to deal with reality and deal with the world. A white person dying their skin black doesn’t make them black, and “race” is even more of a “social construct” than gender is.
What does being a woman mean to you? I’m genuinely interested because that will help give context to my repmy and better frame my response. And while you’re at it how do you define your s**, race and sexuality? For example I am male, black and homosexual. Let’s debate. I’m here for it.
Or better yet, just read the book. I’m not your teacher nor are you entitled to a reply. Like Macy, I said what I said. Accept it, move on or fk off. No wonder we’re doomed.
