LONDON: “Harry Potter” author JK Rowling revealed on Wednesday she is a survivor of domestic abuse and sexual assault. “This isn’t an easy piece to write,” Rowling said in a 3,695-word essay on gender identity and her own troubled past. “I’ve been in the public eye now for over twenty years and have never talked publicly about being a domestic abuse and sexual assault survivor,” Rowling wrote. Woomud?”The tweet forced “Harry Potter” star Daniel Radcliffe to apologize to trans women who may have been offended by Rowling’s remark. “When I read about the theory of gender identity, I remember how mentally sexless I felt in youth,” she wrote.
