Changing your body to fit in with your community is an interesting one, is Sophie unintentionally implying there’s a peer pressure element involved with the trans community?

I'll tell you why it's so aberrant and outrageous:
1) extreme body modification is usually (if not always) caused by some underlying mental health problem, because a mentally healthy adult has self-acceptance; "our bodies are perpetual works in progress always in need of adjustment" - sounds like someone with severe body image issues wrote that
2) mentally healthy adults don't demand constant validation from others - they can handle other people finding their dyed hair or tattoos or piercings hideous and don't think it's a hate crime to not like them; and they don't threaten suicide because they can't get a tattoo
3) normal people don't demand that their vanity surgeries be paid by taxpayers - if it's not a mental illness, why should it be covered by medical insurance? not to mention that people who get tons of tattoos while they can't afford food aren't mentally sound either
4) children shouldn't be allowed to make permament changes to their bodies
No one is arguing that you shouldn't be able to transition. If you're an adult, do whatever you want with your body. But you can't expect everyone to cater to you.

This makes sense but only when you use Labelle’s logic that trans people aren’t looking to pass as the gender they identify with but are the gender they self identify as, to the average person it comes across as confusing nonsense though, especially since Labelle doesn’t bother explaining himself.
Although if you’re using that logic you could do away with male or female toilets and base it on genitals instead and similarly replace male and female sporting events and instead base them on what chromosomes they have which I bet Labelle wouldn’t approve of.

Honestly the easiest way to deal with troons would be to do exactly what they want, that is get rid completely of the words "man" and "woman" and base things purely on genitalia or other sexual characteristics.
Don't call it "men's sports" and "women's sports", but "Y chromosome sports" and "no Y chromosome sports". Make bathrooms for "people born with a uterus" and "people born with a prostate". Make "people who went through menarche rape shelters".
Of course then they would find some ultrarare genetic disorder that was documented literally once in history that produces males with no Y chromosome, or some deformed female infant that was born without a uterus, or say leaking precum actually counts as menstruation, etc. They will always engage in mental gymnastics to redefine themselves into something they are not, so it's useless anyway.

If anything, I’d say this is an argument against transition. Being trans is afforded a unique privilege in society that we don’t extend to other people who do extreme things to their body - we don’t give anorexics liposuction, or prescribe steroids for vigorexics. For less extreme modifications - tattoos, piercings etc - we place a strict age limit on them.

That's what gets me about it. You want to do something to your body, I can't really stop you. You're an adult, that's how it is. But it seems more accepted to give a kid/teenager hormones and SRS and puberty blockers or whatever than a tattoo.
To put that in perspective, a mother can get a little boy, tell him he's a girl, and turn him into one. That happens, we have many a thread on here about just that. That is legal. A kid wants a tattoo, there's loads of laws and even just social stigma around that to the point where it never really happens. Think about it, when's the last time you heard of a parent bragging about how their kid just went to the tattoo parlor for the very first time?
I know that it's different issues, but from a pure body modification standpoint it's very odd what is and isn't for kids to go through. I don't think kids should get tattoos either, but if they can transition then we might have to rethink some things.

It’s very likely a coincidence, but Rowling has yet to comment on the unfortunate connection.

Great authors (such as C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien) wrote under their initials, and some wrote under fake or misleading names, either due to social stigma (the Bronte sisters) or to hide their real identity for their own reasons (for example, Mark Twain's real name was Samuel Clemens). If Rowling wants to do so, she can. Cancelling her at this point is moot, since as several others have pointed out, she has more money than she knows what to do with.Do you know JK Rowling is a TERF?

It's not going to stop Labelle and his rabid fans from trying, of course.

I remember hearing that her publicer adviced to use letters instead of full name because the book was targeted towards both boys and girls. Having very gendered author name could indicate to readers that this is book for one gender only and they wanted to avoid that. Plus british fantasy book, letter would make it fit one with some of the more famous. Don't know if that's true but makes sense.
