MSNBC column hopes J.K. Rowling’s new book will be the ‘final nail in the coffin’ for her ‘transphobic legacy’

One of the first moments in which Rowling courted controversy with the LGBTQ community, particularly transgender activists, was when she defended a woman a woman on Twitter who was fired from her job for lamenting that "smart people" have been "tying themselves in knots to avoid saying the truth that men cannot change into women."

At the time Rowling wrote, "Dress however you please. Call yourself whatever you like. Sleep with any consenting adult who’ll have you. Live your best life in peace and security. But force women out of their jobs for stating that sex is real?"

Boise Corporate-Sponsored Pride Fest Will Feature ‘Drag Kids’ as Young as 11 on 9/11 — ‘Wrong On So Many Levels’

A three-day Boise, Idaho Pride festival, sponsored by major corporations and beginning this week, will feature “drag kids” as young as 11 who will be “bring[ing] drag to the younger generation.”

The annual Boise Pride Festival & Parade— set for this weekend — will feature “Drag Kids” on stage, which the event’s guide describes as “a drag show like none other,” which will incidentally take place on the anniversary of 9/11.

While participants in “Drag Kids” are children ranging in age from 11 to 18 who “are ready to bring it all” to the festival stage, viewers may be of any age.

This is just my opinion.
