JKR is not transphobic, she is a real feministIf you do not know the difference between the sex and gender and do not fight against gender, you are not a feminist at all. It does not matter if it is radical feminism or socialism feminism, psychoanalysis feminism or liberal feminism. All feminist constructs, while recognizing sex differences, call for disappearances gender-related sociopolitical and economic norms.
SEX IS REAL
GENDER IS NOT REAL
gender is not just a feeling inside
it is a social construct and social issue.
stop removing women in the name of equality
Gender, Family, misogyny, Homophobia and ect are all patriarchy legacy.
Gender is harmful
the fact that gender is a social construct doesn't make it not real. Money is also a social construct and it is very real and it has social impacts. Gender is not harmful. Imposing gender roles is harmful
I'm glad there's a conversation on this. Not sure if there's just a lot more push for positive HP content lately or if I'm just hyperaware after I decided to disengage from the franchise. But it's nice to know some people are also struggling with conflicting feelings on this, but also aren't willing to support her. Disappointed that JK used her platform to spread misinformation and hate speech. People really idolized her so much and loved her story, why would she want to hurt others. We have a moral obligation to make the world safe, comfortable, and fair for everyone and thing around us. Oh the tragedy. This is worse than not being able to eat Nestlé Kitkats. Oh 2020, what were you thinking.
Hello, I would like to come back on "gender is not just a feeling inside it is a social construct and a social issue."
I'm sorry but I believe this is not correct. Things are sometimes beyond physical perception, they might be about the Self and other part of human being. Psychology and every other parts of the Self is barely explored. The way we think, the things we like or love, our non verbal communication, our way to sit for example. All of that is important. So I disagree, gender is not a social issue, genders are real. It's just that we were born in societies were things are not believed to change, just like they were only a few finite things while there are thousands of flows.
For sure genders have been classified and largely influenced by our systems and it was probably not quite right but does it mean genders are not real? No, we (for the majority) only had a wrong and biased idea of what genders are. I think it is too narrow minded to claim something is not real just because of conviction or by principles. I think it is important to question ourselves, even though it's hard, in the attempt to decipher the truthS and to accept that we might have been blind all along.
dear friend who seid gender is more beyond physical, wellbiology and physical part of man and women is SEX
and yes
sex difference does exist
but
feeling like a man, feeling like a women, men brain and women brain, pink is girly and blue for boy; not only they are GENDER but also they are so sexist.
gender and money are social construct, its true your are right. BUT you can't compeer these together.
money is suppose to make like eases and makes us united.
gender not only secreted us, but also fundamentally is no different with slavery! it comes from social class and different respect and resource each grope receives.
supporting gender concept is like supporting virginity or slavery. gender ideology is regressive
I'm having a hard time to extract the information from that "article". It is a bit confusing for me, I struggle to dissociate the author feelings/point of view from the facts and what Butler thinks/says. I'm not quite sure to think about it except that the title seems (in my opinion) aggressive and the content looks similar.All I can say is I did not know Judith Butler and her work.
Real Feminism is Emma Watson's Feminism. Her Feminism is modest and simple.
It honestly makes me so sad. It's disgusting
