Disgusting how quickly people brought JKR into the conversation. A woman who has said little more than "people who menstruate are women", and who holds far more liberal views on trans issues than 99.99% of the entire human population, and according to the commentariat here she's basically adjacent to a man who tortured a child. Disgraceful. 

Holy thread necro, Batman! Didnyou go trawling through the depths of the board to find this thread? The topic widened to include a number of sff authors involved in controversy.

Not sure the women who can’t menstruate due to age/medical conditions appreciated JKR declaring them to no longer be women.

lol @ JKR having more liberal views on trans issues than 99.99% of the entire human population. What a completely nonsensical, unsubstantiated, and demonstrably false statement. Disgraceful.

Yeah this ^

I'd also add harmful, disgusting, and offensive.

I'm both angry yet amused at the same time.

(Also wtf Eddings kept a child locked in his basement? JFC)

And it's pretty offensive to the men and non-binary people who menstruate, too.

JK Rowling's far too careful and PR trained to openly say hateful shit but she openly supports people who say hateful shit and wrote a whole essay which was just filled with misrepresentations, dog-whistles and lies. She's a horrible bigot, deal with it.
