I've been having similar feelings. Bit of a ramble but here goes:
I suppose at some point it's inevitable that I'll just have to walk away. For the time being, and I do suppose it's rationalizing a bit, I'm still enjoying writing/participating in fandom and I figure if I keep playing with her toys in ways she wouldn't approve of, that makes me doubly happy. Also, I think about some of the actors--Chris Rankin in particular--who is very loudly supportive of the trans community but also obviously continues to do official HP-sanctioned things. I think for some people who do still love HP seeing allies like that can be helpful though I also understand that may not be true for everyone. I realize the works themselves are not without issues but for the moment it's primarily the author not the books I am objecting to and she can fuck off forever.
