This is not the first time Rowling has addressed this issue.
A longtime advocate for keeping female spaces exclusive to those born as women, the mother of four has stood up for her views on women’s rights various times.
Zuby, a rapper and influencer, commented on Rowling’s post, saying, “The ‘trans movement’ is easily the most misogynistic movement in modern history. Especially because of its scale and mainstream acceptance.”

Another user on X called the magazine’s move “utterly demeaning” and “insulting to women,” commenting.
The comment went on to read: “To have a ‘women’s magazine’ like [Glamour UK] select men as the ‘women of the year’… women are not a costume… Glamour can F right off.”
