Just read about it - bonkers, isn't it?

Just as bad as chest milk. This whole woke thing is completely bonkers.

Chest milk

Not heard of that one before.

There must be a small group of people, locked away from reality,thinking these things up.

Chuck the key away, some-one.

It’s completely ridiculous and you now have to think before you say anything for fear of offending the perpetually offended.

JK Rowling has taken a lot of abuse for being transphobic following her Tweet in response to an article about “people who menstruate”.

She said “I’m sure there used to be a word for those people. Someone help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud?’’

[Workingman]

The BBC ran an article saying that transgender (men) should be proud of their periods.

"Men" don't have periods, well, not those sorts.

It's truly bonkers!

I feel sorry for JK, all she's done is try to stick up for women's rights and she's been pilloried for it. Even the younger Harry Potter actors turned against her over it all

I feel sorry for JK too and think the young actors who owe their fame to her have behaved very badly. She's not transphobic, just standing up for women and girls who could be at risk.
