On Wednesday, she responded to reports that Dr. Jacob Breslow \u2014 an associate professor of gender and sexuality at the London School of Economics \u2014 had resigned from the transgender children\u2019s charity Mermaids after people became aware that he had once spoken at a B4U-ACT conference promoting support for pedophiles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI note the genderists are now arguing that it doesn\u2019t mater that a paedophilia apologist was a trustee of a trans children\u2019s charity, because he was \u2018only one.\u2019 You know, I thought things were pretty bad when you were arguing to put convicted rapists in women\u2019s jails,\u201d Rowling began.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">when you shrugged off masked men roughing up lesbian protestors and tried to shout down detransitioners talking about what was done to them by ideologically-captured doctors.

Rowling (@jk_rowling) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/jk_rowling\/status\/1577678206551097344?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 5, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you shrugged off masked men roughing up lesbian protestors and tried to shout down detransitioners talking about what was done to them by ideologically-captured doctors,\u201d she continued. \u201cWomen, gay people and vulnerable kids have suffered real harm and you? You cheered it all on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou still prefer willful blindness and four word mantras to considering you might have got this badly wrong,\u201d Rowling said, going on to note that many of the activists had become the very thing they so often professed to hate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou became part of an authoritarian, misogynist, homophobic movement and you didn\u2019t even notice,\u201d she said. \u201cEnjoy the sense of your own righteousness while you can.

The problem isn&#8217;t that a man who wrote sympathetically about orgasming &#8216;on or with&#8217; a child was made trustee of a children&#8217;s charity, but that the TERFs might &#8216;twist&#8217; his appointment.

The comment read: \u201cEven if he was (and his appointment as a Mermaid trustee was stupid given the level of scrutiny and how everything is twisted by TERFs) that doesn\u2019t stop trans men being men, trans women being women, and non-binary people being non-binary people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rowling responded by saying, \u201cPerfect example.
