“I don’t like the way she’s been treated, actually.
“As a woman, she’s very much entitled to say what she feels about her own body.
There’s nobody better to say that, as a woman.
Brian Cox defended J.K. Rowling.Macall B. Polay/HBO; Mike Marsland/WireImage
“J.K. Rowling has written these great books about empowerment, about young children finding themselves as human beings.
“The verbal abuse directed at her is disgusting, it’s appalling.
I mean, I can understand a viewpoint that might be angry at what she says about women.
But it’s not some obscene, uber-right-wing fascist.
And I understand where she’s coming from.
Even though I’m not a woman.”
EW has reached out to Cox for further comment.
