Earlier this week, we reported that Emma Watson had given a fairly rare interview about her life and her career—including touching on her and her Harry Potter castmates’ very public rift with author J.K. Rowling over her ever-entrenching attacks on trans rights. In the interview (on the On Purpose With Jay Shetty podcast) Watson struck a sort of “She’s still your aunt even when she sucks” tone, expressing that “I really don’t believe that by having had that experience and holding the love and support and views that I have, mean that I can’t and don’t treasure Jo and the person that I had personal experiences with.


Still don't get why women think short hair is a good look, I've seen a few that can pull it off, Emma is not one of them.

The irony is that her statements are about as moderate as they get. You'd think by the way people react that she said transvestites should all go through woodchippers.

With a head full of snakes.


IDK, maybe she's on some sort of redemption arc? Will she lure the other 2 actors to soften their tone as well? I doubt the mob would allow it.

They become less of a threat and women glaze them. Women are victims of their own social circles

this used to be the standard.

glad to see Emma recognize differences of opinion doesn't mean you cant still love someone

Ever increasing? lol. Stating obvious scientific fact. Party of science. Show me where JK has stated adults should not be allowed to trans up. That would be attacking their health rights. Saying there are 2 sexes. That is a fact not an attack.

Her position is that trans women are men, not women.

Which is 100% accurate. It’s not “an attack on trans rights”

These people are nuts

Kinda seems the opposite by what’s written. Seems like Watson still cares for Rowling despite inflammatory bullshite from the media trying to drive a rift

Seems like a clear case of we don’t have to agree on everything and a bit of a departure from most entertainment business types parroting their fundamentalist views.

There is NO such thing anymore than "trans youths".


These nutjobs think because they claim a thing that we all have to acknowledge its existence.

Expressing a belief held by the entirety of mankind since the dawn of time, minus about ten years ago, is bigoted hate speech.

Clown world.

Watson's fast approaching an age where young cute ingenue rolls will not consider her. By a lot of Hollywood standards, she's approaching being over the hill and sliding down the other side.
Anything she can do to make herself more visible....short of morally questionable choices... she will do or say.
