I have to admit that I have never seen a single moment of any Harry Potter movie, nor have I read a single page from any book JK has written. But I love her dearly and count her among my heros as with anyone who stands boldly for the truth. And very few people are as bold.
JK Rowling reported to UK police for
‘misgendering’ trans broadcaster as a ‘man’
The UK’s first transgender national news anchor has reported “Harry Potter” author JK Rowling to the police for “misgendering” her as a “man” on social media.
India Willoughby, 58, reported having “contacted Northumbria Constabulary” over a series of X posts Sunday by the outspoken author.
Rowling, also 58, called Willoughby “just a man reveling in his misogynistic performance of what he thinks ‘woman’ means: narcissistic, shallow and exhibitionist.”
Rowling had “definitely committed a crime,” Willoughby alleged to Byline TV Wednesday, claiming the best-selling author was guilty of a “cut-and-dry offense.”
“I’m legally a woman, she knows I’m a woman, and she calls me a man.
“It’s a protected characteristic and that is a breach of both the Equalities Act and the Gender Recognition Act. She’s tweeted that out to 14 million followers,” Willoughby wrote.
Rowling hit back, saying that free speech was protected under British law — and suggesting that Willoughby’s “obsessive targeting” of her constituted defamation and harassment.
She has long been outspoken on transgender issues, saying last year that she would rather serve jail time than be forced to concede that gender isn’t a biological trait determined at birth.
That statement came after a report that the nation’s Labour Party would make deliberately calling someone by the wrong gender a hate crime punishable by imprisonment.
“There is no possible charge. There is no such thing as a hate crime without there first being an actual crime. India is relying on the police not understanding this basic fact,” Harry Miller from WeAreFairCop, a group of “gender critical lawyers, police officers, writers & professionals,” told the Telegraph.
“Misgendering may be rude but it’s not even in the foothills of being criminal.”
The latest kerfuffle came after Rowling and Willoughby had been locked in a war of words for over a year.
Last January, Willoughby tweeted, “I’m more of a woman than JK Rowling will ever be.” A screenshot of the post was shared by Rowling, who wrote “citation needed.”
The author first sparked backlash amongst trans people in 2019 when she supported a tax specialist who was fired for being anti-trans.
A year later, she penned a lengthy essay railing against “current trans activism,” which she claimed was “pushing to erode the legal definition of sex and replace it with gender.”
Northumbria police did not return a request for comment from the British outlet.

How psychology itself has gone mad
Beyond the transgender cult, the therapeutic world has become a force for totalitarianism
Much has been written about the terrible and often irreversible damage done to children’s health by doctors, psychologists and other health professionals who subscribe to the cult of transgenderism.
While people who truly believe they were born into the wrong sexual body should always be treated with compassion, there is a vast amount of evidence that for many children ensnared by the transgender cult compassion has been replaced by reckless cruelty. Health professionals presented with children and young people suffering from a range of psychological disturbances, such as autism, depression, suicidal behaviour, eating disorders or confusion over their sexuality, are refusing to treat these as the psychological problems they undoubtedly are. Instead they are subjecting such children to medical or surgical procedures to alter their sexual functioning, often with catastrophic results.
Now horrific evidence has emerged that health professionals have been well aware of the potential harms of the treatments they are meting out — sometimes to children or adults who are too young or mentally ill to understand the consequences.
This has come to light from a tranche of leaked internal files from the World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH), which is considered the leading global authority on the treatment and care of people with “gender” issues. The injuries described in these files include cancer, infertility, loss of sexual function, liver tumours and death.
They also show that the ethical requirement to obtain informed consent is being violated, with WPATH members admitting that children and adolescents cannot comprehend the lifelong consequences of sex-trait modification interventions being administered to them — and in some cases, due to poor health literacy, neither can their parents.
These revelations confirm that the transgender cult has involved systematic clinical malpractice on a shocking scale. The question they raise, of course, is how so many doctors, psychologists and other professionals tasked with treating mental illness can have gone so badly off the professional rails like this.
The answer to that question is provided in a shocking and important film made by the New Culture Forum and put up on YouTube last week. It’s presented by Amy Gallagher, a mental health nurse and trained psychotherapist — who is also suing Britain’s most prestigious mental health clinic for bullying her when she objected to being taught an ideology which she believed had no place in a clinical setting.
Psychology, she says, is no longer treating madness; it has itself gone mad.
