Even Elon Musk Wants JK Rowling To Give Her Anti-Trans Screeds A Rest—And Yikes

The X owner commented on one of the 'Harry Potter' author's anti-trans posts to encourage her to try posting 'interesting and positive content on other matters.'

Never in a million years did we think we'd see the day where we'd agree with Elon Musk on something, but here we are.

To be fair, though, it's because he's telling JK Rowling to cool it with the anti-trans rants.


Yes, once again, the Harry Potter author took to Musk's platform to spew her bigoted views (shocker, we know).

The self-proclaimed TERF (trans-exclusionary radical feminist), who's gone so far as to say she'd "happily" go to prison over her anti-trans views, tweeted a lengthy 700-word response to "several questions" she allegedly had been "accused of avoiding answering" regarding her views on what she believes "a woman is."

This, of course, came just a month after the author mocked gender-neutral language in a U.K. Mother's Day Post, tweeting:

"❤️💐Happy Birthing Parent Day to all whose large gametes were fertilised resulting in small humans whose sex was assigned by doctors making mostly lucky guesses ❤️💐"

In her April 6 tweet, Rowling laid out her definition of a woman in about six paragraphs, writing that a woman is “a human being who belongs to the sex class that produces large gametes..." along with about 696 other words.

And even Musk is over it.

Unfortunately, he doesn't disagree with Rowling's views—but he did, however, urge the author to post on "other matters," tweeting:

"While I heartily agree with your points regarding sex/gender, may I suggest also posting interesting and positive content on other matters?"

People on Musk's own platform were stunned, to say the least.

A few also wondered how Rowling will take the suggestion.

While Rowling didn't respond directly to Musk's tweet, she did later post to say that she "missed being advised to share more positive content yesterday":

That certainly doesn't sound like she has plans to slow down on her anti-trans content.

But now we have to wonder if Musk will take his own advice...

Jessica Tarlov Has Perfect Clapback After Fox News Co-Host Criticizes Abdul El-Sayed For Not Being A 'Practicing Physician'

Fox News host Jessica Tarlov had the perfect response to her colleague Emily Compagno after Compagno complained that Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed is not a "practicing physician."

El-Sayed, an epidemiologist who campaigned on expanding healthcare access, strengthening the economy, and ending unconditional U.S. military aid to Israel, became the first progressive to win a statewide primary in a state carried by President Donald Trump in the 2024 election. He is set to face former Republican Congressman Mike Rogers during next month's midterms.

Trump Ripped After Openly Lusting Over MAGA Sisters With Tone-Deaf Joke Following Cornell Sexual Assault Allegations

President Donald Trump was criticized after openly lusting after Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy and her sister Leah Campos during a Hispanic Heritage Month event that took place amid national outrage following the sexual assault allegations that have been the center of a scandal at Cornell University.

A former Cornell student known only as "Jane Doe" filed a civil lawsuit detailing an October 2024 sexual assault at the Chi Phi fraternity house and Cornell's handling of the assault after it was reported to school officials. Cornell’s chapter of Chi Phi was closed shortly afterward and remains barred from campus.

Pete Hegseth Just Threw Out A Bunch Of Absurd Slurs While Talking About Transforming The Military—And Gavin Newsom Clapped Back Hard

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth after Hegseth delivered a slur-filled speech about who he's trying to bar from U.S. military service.

Speaking at U.S. Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia, Hegseth claimed that the Trump administration's cultural reimagining of the nation's armed forces has been a grand success. But, as evidenced by what he told those in attendance, this "success" was only possible because the Department of Defense has made no secret of excluding certain groups.
