Good on her, never read the book, never seen the tv series or film. But maybe I will now.
I bet pro-choicers probably won't share Handmaid's Tale memes anymore, lol.
She agrees with JK Rowling about Transexuals. Lol.
Source your information more widely and donlt jump o conclusions on fragmentary data.
Attwood does not agree with JK Rowling about Transsexuals. Attwood like the word women, isnt big on canael culture. But viewing the people as binary that agreeing with someone about one thing means your views align with them about everything else, that people are entire in one camp or another is simply wrong.
"After a certain female author came under fire recently for a series of transphobic rants from which she has repeatedly refused to back down, fellow noted female author Margaret Atwood has spoken up in support of trans rights.
