After various Harry Potter stars spoke out after J.K. Rowling’s recent transphobic comments (read Daniel Radcliffe’s comments here), Emma Watson has posted a couple of tweets, as well.
Her first tweet says, “Trans people are who they say they are and deserve to live their lives without being constantly questioned or told they aren’t who they say they are.”
