Bette Midler found herself at the center of some internet controversy after tweeting that trans-inclusive language somehow deprives cis women of their identity.
, “I will say this, and everyone’s gonna hate me, but as a woman, just because you go change your [body] parts, doesn’t make you a woman, sorry.” Gray said that while she supports trans rights, she draws the line at athletic competitions. While those statements sparked a fair amount of backlash, they also secured Gray one high-profile new fan.
Rowling has made a number of her own controversial remarks on the subject over the years, including lodging a similar complaint about the use of trans-inclusive language in June 2020. The author mocked an article titled “Creating a more equal post-COVID-19 world for people who menstruate,” , “‘People who menstruate.’ I’m sure there used to be a word for those people. Someone help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud?”
