Ingxabano ibe namandla kangangokuthi u-Rowling wagxeka "ama-transactivist" amathathu ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule ngokushicilela ikheli lakhe lasekhaya ku-inthanethi.
“Ucansi luyiqiniso. Ukukhuluma iqiniso akuyona inzondo
Kusukela lapho, u-Rowling akazange agweme le nkinga enameva, kodwa uqhubekile nokunikeza umbono wakhe ngayo.

"Nginesiqiniseko sokuthi likhona igama lalokho," esho ecasuka.
Kamuva, wabhala ama-tweets amaningana echaza: “Uma ubulili bungelona iqiniso, akukho ukukhangwa kwabantu bobulili obufanayo. Uma kungelona iqiniso, iqiniso eliphila abesifazane emhlabeni jikelele liyaqedwa. Ngiyazi futhi ngiyabathanda abantu abashintshashintshayo, kodwa ukusula umqondo wocansi kubulala ikhono lethu lokuxoxa ngezimpilo zethu ngendlela enenjongo.
