Another quick note, I believe you are mispronouncing J.K. Rowling's surname. She said once people misprounce her name so often that she stopped correcting them, but I think you should go with how she herself prounces Rowling (on YT there are clips of her pronouncing her name).
Just a quick note, "transgenderism" is a term that's generally disliked in the LGBTQ+ community as it is mainly used by people who are against trans rights. They use "transgenderism" similarly to "trans ideology", to make it sound like it's an ideology (or a cult even) and not an identity. I think it's unfortunate that you would use this term. I recognise you tried not to take any sides in the episode, but "transgenderism" is strongly connected with anti-trans views. I think "J. K. Rowling and trans people" would have been a better title. (Please note I am not trans myself, just reporting on what I have seen many trans people say. There for sure are trans people who are completely fine with the term, but many view it as troubling or even offensive because of how often it is used against trans people).
A comment cannot comprise an exaustive discussion of the topics. One of the issue has been brought to pubblic attention in the Olympic games. Are there any advantages for some genders expressing a more masculin amount of hormons in women competition?
@@laurapavone3513 we don''t. it's not something as prevalent as it is in the US. This difference demonstrates that this issue is political rather than biological.
@@laurapavone3513 we just say he or she is transgender. There is no gender specific pronoun in Persian as well. By they way, after 4 decades of living I have never meta transgender person face to face.
Genders in language are fascinating…some languages are defined by gender, others (it sounds like Persian is in this category) have the same pronoun for both a man and a woman. I wonder how this changes the society in which the language is spoken…
@@LeonardoEnglishCom Pahlavi language, the ancestor of Persian, which was spoken and used as court language up until 7th century did not have gender specific pronouns. Back in those days, women could rise to power as Monarch, work in military positions. But you should understand that gender roles were quite concrete like today in many parts of the world. After the emergence of Islam in Baghdad the scene started to change little by little for Persian women till today.
Hermione that ends up marrying Ron is the biggest insult to women that the author has ever made. The real hero in the book is Hermione, Harry is a narcissist that never comes to terms with his wounds, he is like Voldemort but always avoids facing himself and in the last battle it is Voldemort that looks at himself in the mirror. Harry has not done any awakening journey. And if I remember well the werewolf teacher was a transgender and how did he end up? An outcast that redeemed himself through his own sacrifice. 📗📘📙📘📙📗
I really enjoyed this episode . Good job 👏 ❤.
Glad to hear it!

Fortunately, only one word exists to describe someone's gender in Persian.
How do you define the nuances in someone's identity?

Very interesting, and Hermione certainly is the strongest of the three characters. But…Lupin is trans?
@@LeonardoEnglishCom😂 I mean who is better than Lupin to represent transgenders: changing from human to wolf 🐾
