Is it silly to feel a bit nervous around people on the train wearing Harry Potter gowns (not just ordinary academic gowns, but obviously embroidered with Griffindor etc.)? It feels silly, and yet…
I've not got the impression that the people being poisoned by JKR's transphobia are actual Harry Potter fans, primarily. It's not people with HP avatars who tweet out the bigotry, it's single-issue shouty types, different demographic. So many HP fans are sound people, they support Daniel Radcliffe in his vocal support for trans rights, even the ones who keep wearing the shirts etc. This is what I choose to believe, anyway.
@sparrowsion Ha, I've found mine in the village is hard to buy cough medicine in - because they didn't have the sugar free pholcodine in stock and knew I was diabetic!
