J.K. Rowling Slams David Tennant for Calling Trans Critics “a Tiny Bunch of Little Whinging F***ers”

J.K. Rowling has slammed Doctor Who star David Tennant following his pro trans speech at an LGBT awards ceremony because he said trans critics were a “tiny bunch of little whinging f***ers” who will “all go away soon”. The Mail has more.

After winning celebrity ally at the LGBT Awards for being one of “the community’s most fierce allies and supporters”, the Scottish actor was asked to relay a message to trans youth backstage.

During his interview the Timelord said trans youth should not feel unloved or not accepted as “most people in the world don’t really care”, later adding that opposers would “all go away soon”.

However Rowling has since criticised him, implying he had a lack of concern for women’s welfare suggesting the actor wanted “a lot of people to cease to exist” following his comments.

In particular she appeared to imply Tennant had no concern for women who would like to opt for “female-only” spaces in prisons, at work or in crisis centres. 

During the interview, the 53-year-old actor said: “Everyone’s so self-obsessed that really, the sort of noise that comes from a certain area of the press and of the political class is… it’s a minority. It really is.

“And please don’t let that make you feel diminished or dissuaded or discouraged, because, you know, you have to be allowed to be yourself, and you are, and you are yourself and you must thrive and flourish, and we’re all here for you.”

Tennant added: “It’s a tiny bunch of little whinging f****** [that] are on the wrong side of history and they’ll all go away soon.”

Rowling has since responded to his comment on X (formerly Twitter), writing: “This man is talking about rape survivors who want female-only care, the nurses currently suing their health trust for making them change in front of a man, girls and women losing sporting opportunities to males and female prisoners incarcerated with convicted sex offenders.”

Worth reading in full.
