J.K. Rowling Hi J.K. Rowling, using non-gendered language is about moving beyond the idea that woman = uterus. Feminists were once mocked for wanting to change sexist language, but it’s now common to say firefighter instead of fireman.
J.K. Rowling It seems awkward right now to say “people who menstruate” but this is just like changing other biased language. Menstruation is a biological function; not a “woman thing.” It's unnecessary to gender body parts and doing so can restrict healthcare access for those who need it.
