We guess JK Rowling has had another ‘middle-aged moment’, because she’s been caught liking hideously transphobic tweets again
NICK DUFFY MAY 18, 2020

The author upset many childhood fans of Harry Potter in December by tweeting her support for a woman who was fired for anti-transgender views, and in March before that by appearing to like a tweet that referred to trans women as “men in dresses”.
At the time Rowling’s reps officially sought to blame an accidental “middle-aged moment”, stating that she hadn’t meant to like the tweets.
But this week the multimillionaire has been caught liking a message from an activist linked to the anti-transgender LGB Alliance.
JK Rowling liked Twitter message smearing trans woman.
The message repeatedly misgendered and spread false claims about Alex Drummond, a psychotherapist and photographer who has become a point of fixation for transphobic activists online because she has a beard.

The tweet read: “This is Alex Drummond, an adult human male who claims to be a lesbian (yes, he’s kept his dangling bits and skipped the hormones) and believes that real lesbians who aren’t into penises are transphobic and should be excluded from the lesbian community. Yeah, this guy.”
Drummond, who previously said she is in a long-term committed relationship, has made no such claims.
Fans also noted that Rowling’s account liked another message insisting that “humans come in two, and only two, immutable sexes”.
Approached by PinkNews on Monday (May 1
, a spokesperson for Rowling declined to comment.
