JK Rowling responds to criticism over transphobic comments, says she is survivor of sexual assault

India Today  

Harry Potter author JK Rowling revealed on Wednesday that she is a survivor of domestic abuse and sexual assault. "This isn't an easy piece to write," Rowling said in a 3,695-word essay on gender identity and her own troubled past. "I've been in the public eye now for over twenty years and have never talked publicly about being a domestic abuse and sexual assault survivor," Rowling wrote. Rowling said on Wednesday that "accusations and threats from trans activists have been bubbling in my Twitter timeline" ever since. She also argued that "the current explosion of trans activism" has resulted in too many people undergoing gender reassignment surgery without giving it sufficient thought.
