Daniel Radcliffe has responded to JK Rowling’s anti-trans tweets and said he hopes her comments won’t ‘tarnish’ Harry Potter for fans.
Radcliffe gave the clear message: ‘Trans women are women.’ And he added: ‘Any statement to the contrary erases the identity and dignity of transgender people’.
The Harry Potter actor’s message comes after Rowling mocked trans inclusive language. The author wrote: ‘“People who menstruate.” I’m sure there used to be a word for those people.
