J.K. Rowling celebrated President Trump's signing of an executive order aimed at protecting women's sports, expressing her gratitude on X while criticizing those who advocate for allowing biological males to compete in women's categories.
J.K. Rowling, the creator of the Harry Potter series, expressed her gratitude towards President Donald Trump for signing the 'No Men in Women's Sports ' executive order on Wednesday. The order was signed on National Girls and Women in Sports Day, a day dedicated to celebrating female athletes and their commitment to equal access to sports for all women. Rowling's post on X, formerly Twitter, featured a photo of Trump surrounded by applauding female athletes as he signed the executive order.
In her post, Rowling aimed her message at those on the left who have advocated for allowing biological males to compete in women's sports. 'Congratulations to every single person on the left who’s been campaigning to destroy women’s and girls’ rights. Without you, there’d be no images like this,' Rowling wrote.Rowling further elaborated on her viewpoint in a subsequent post, condemning the argument that 'why do you care about a tiny fraction of the population?' as 'utterly ridiculous.' She asserted that gender ideology has had a detrimental impact on various aspects of society, including freedom of speech, scientific truth, gay rights, and the safety, privacy, and dignity of women and girls. Moreover, she claimed that it has caused irreparable physical harm to vulnerable children. Rowling criticized the imposition of this ideology from the top down by politicians, healthcare bodies, academia, sections of the media, celebrities, and even the police, despite the fact that it lacks popular support. She suggested that those who espouse these views should remove their activist rhetoric, personal attacks, false equivalences, and circular arguments from their online platforms.The Harry Potter author has consistently advocated for the protection of women's sports, often expressing her opinions on the subject, even when it risked her own well-being. Last year, when the BBC awarded its annual Women's Footballer of the Year award to Zambian player Barbra Banda, who had been allowed to compete at the Paris Olympics despite failing to meet sex eligibility requirements, Rowling voiced her disapproval on X, stating, 'Presumably the BBC decided this was more time efficient than going door to door to spit directly in women's faces.' Rowling has also been a vocal critic of Scotland's Hate Crime Act, signed into law last year, challenging Scottish authorities to arrest her for referring to a man as a man. She pointed out that the act criminalizes 'stirring up hatred against any of the protected groups covered by the Bill,' one of which is 'transgender identity.' She went on to list several cases of biological male criminals who identified as transgender before committing crimes, including sexual assault of a child, possession of child pornography, and rape.
