JK Rowling questions Scotland's new 'woke' policy of recording rape crimes, gets hatred from trans activists
Harry Potter author JK Rowling has been at the receiving end of a lot of hatred, online abuse and even threats from ‘trans activists’ over her frank and practical approach on the issues of gender identity and its problems for biological women. ‘Dogma overriding common sense’ The Police Scotland’s statement has emerged after former SNP leader Kenny MacAskill wrote to the police asking them how it plans to deal with rape cases under the SNP’s new Gender Recognition Act, which makes it easier for people to be officially recognised as whichever gender they choose. In her article, Rowling, a domestic violence survivor, said she was perturbed that “the new trans activism” was undermining women and girls’ rights to single-sex spaces by “offering cover to predators”. In 2018, a convicted rapist and paedophile ‘Karen White’ was transferred inside a women’s prison in the UK after he claimed he is a woman, despite having never undergone any gender change procedure.
