::::* There are fringe right-wing voices in the US and Canada that are pro-Rowling on trans issues, but I think that reinforces rather than undermines my generalization here. [[User:Newimpartial|Newimpartial]] ([[User talk:Newimpartial|talk]]) 19:54, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

:::::I'll try to digest this tomorrow; hopefully others will weigh in and lend some clarity. I can only deal in what sources give me, and I don't know where to go with this. I think Duggan is in Norway, and Pape is in Switzerland (although educated in US and with US publishings and connections), and Pugh is in South Carolina ... but Pugh gives us little to work with as the paper was before the second Forstater tribunal. We've got a preponderance of UK sources, which is natural since Rowling is British, but important pieces from NYT, CNN, USA today, NBC News ... I just don't know how to address this. For Rowling ''it is'' a women's rights issue, no? She's from the UK: how do we leave that out?

::::::Sorry, just popping in for a moment. I read this NYT article some months ago, [https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/07/opinion/terf-trans-women-britain.html "How British Feminism Became Anti-Trans] and found it interesting. It doesn't mention Rowling, (though it I found whilst searching for Rowling throught the NYT archives). For me, at least, it added perspective and I believe explains the differences UK vs. US framing. Anyway, putting it here, in case it's helpful - it might not be. I have some other sources too, but still fighting health issues. Will add what I can when I can if needed.
