10. Imagine being a kid who fallen in love with a book series

Where all their dreams can come true…dreams that hurt nobody else but make you happy!

Represented in that series by someone who comes from a background almost exactly like your own:

Living with abusive non-supportive guardians who keep on reinforcing what he can’t do and will never be. Then for him to rise above it all and achieve his dreams. Who showed the world that hedid have value and became who they always were meant to be. Who fought against bigotry and hate.



Only to be told by the author of that series and creator of that series that it isn’t for you. That you are exactly as those parents told you and will NEVER BE ANYTHING ELSE. That by attempting to achieve those dreams you are a bad person and should feel bad and are a bad person. A pervert and predator. That you hurt the very people you want to be like and should be ashamed.


I never cared for HP but for all the trans children whose dreams she shaped only to destroy….

I will never forgive her.
