Both a billionaire and a writer have often been criticized for their views and statements on transgender issues.
In the comments to one of J.K. Rowling's posts, Elon Musk advised the author of "Harry Potter" to publish more "interesting and positive content":
"While I heartily agree with your points regarding sex/gender, may I suggest also posting interesting and positive content on other matters?" Musk wrote.
The post itself is dated April 6, however, it took Musk a month to decide to comment. Interestingly, Rowling responded to the advice of the owner of the X social network in the next publication:
"Just realized I missed yesterday's advice to share more positive content... so I'm sharing an article about my writing life published today in The Sunday Times. This should in no way be interpreted as me doing everything I'm told."
Musk joked in response:
"I need to remind myself of that from time to time."
Indeed, the billionaire has repeatedly made controversial comments on transgender issues, which led to his teenage daughter, who is transgender, filing a petition last year to change her last name and stating that she did not want to be associated with her father "in any way."
While I heartily agree with your points regarding sex/gender, may I suggest also posting interesting and positive content on other matters?

Rowling has also made controversial statements on transgender issues multiple times, which actors who starred in the Harry Potter films, such as Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Eddie Redmayne, criticized.
