CMV: JK Rowling's tweet is 100% right.

JK Rowling is being burned at the stake and called a transphobe for arguing that the firing of a tax expert -for tweeting that women cannot biologically become men- was wrong. People are particularly objecting to Rowling saying "Sex is real," when it is. Sex is XX chromosomes versus XY chromosomes. How is JK Rowling a transphobe for saying that? Isn't *gender* the term in debate? Biological sex is just an objective fact, and the tax expert was seemingly fired for expressing that, which is *absolutely* a free speech issue, and JK Rowling is *far* from transphobic in saying that the firing was wrong.

>I conclude from … the totality of the evidence, that \[Forstater\] is absolutist in her view of sex and it is a core component of her belief that she will refer to a person by the sex she considered appropriate even if it violates their dignity and/or creates an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment. The approach is not worthy of respect in a democratic society.

The Judge's ruling was spot on. If Forstater publicly voiced her intent to discriminate, then she has created a hostile work environment. And she didn't just say that "men can't be women", she repeatedly and intentionally publicly misgendered people and made disparaging comments about them. In public. Of course she is gonna get fired if the organization she works cares at all about creating a work environment in which an employees human dignity is respected.

We shouldn't even be having this conversation. If you don't believe that a woman can become a man, then that's what you believe. But what you don't do is harass people online and refuse to give them the respect that you would expect from others because of your belief. Your beliefs do not give you permission to be a fucking asshole.
