Rowling off of Doctor Who (@) Fans have taken to social media to remember that in 2008, long before people J.K. Rowling made her transphobic views public, Tennant nixed a plan to have the Harry Potter author on an episode of Doctor Who. Showrunner and head writer Russell T Davies wanted to feature Rowling in a Christmas special where her imagination would come to life, forcing the Doctor to battle through a snow-covered world of wizards and witches, The Pink News reports.Apparently, Tennant didnt want Rowling to appear on the show because he thought it sounded like a spoof. Tennant couldnt have known that years later, Rowling would start spouting heinously anti-trans rhetoric, but the fact that he kept her off of one of the best sci-fi shows of all time is worthy of praise!Told an anti-trans politician to "shut up" (@) During his speech while being recognized as a celebrity ally at the British LGBTQ Awards, Tennant passionately spoke out against anti-LGBTQ+ British equalities minister Kemi Badenoch, saying that everyone has the right to be who they want to be before telling the politician to shut up, reports Deadline.Until we wake up and Kemi Badenoch doesnt exist anymore I dont wish ill of her, I just wish her to shut up whilst we do live in this world, I am honored to receive this [award], he said.Not only is he a great ally, but hes living out our cathartic dreams of telling anti-LGBTQ+ politicians to stuff it!Wore a nonbinary pin and nail polish to Mean Girls Musical opening (@) After telling hateful anti-LGBTQ+ politician Kemi Badenoch to shut up during an award acceptance speech, she hit back on social media posting that she will not be silenced by men who prioritise applause from Stonewall over the safety of women and girls.But not one to be silenced by bigots, the next day, Tennant attended the opening of the Mean Girls Musical with his family while wearing a nonbinary pin and hot pink nail polish.He's the best dad ever! (@) This year, during Pride Month, Tennant was spotted holding a Pride flag while wearing a shirt that says, You will have to go through me in trans-Pride colors. This is just further proof that Tennant is not only an amazing ally for the LGBTQ+ community but a terrific ally for his nonbinary kid. He told anti-trans bigots to "fk off"@mandlebougiethe 'woah!' and 'brilliant' at me naming myself alonzo and having his career as a special interest #davidtennant #proudnerdEarlier this year, while at Proud Nerds: Angels, Demons and Doctors convention in Germany, a fan asked Tennant about his relationship to gender expression, and the conversation that followed proved that he has a true understanding of the problems facing the trans community. Plus he told anti-trans bigots to Fk off, which is a sentiment we can all get behind!Now, there is a similar weaponization of these topics being taken by mostly the right wing, or certain sections of society, trying to create friction and conflict and division where it neednt be, Tennant said. Its just about people being themselves. You dont need to be bothered about it. Fk off and let people be.Wearing a "leave trans kids alone" T-shirt at a press event (@) While at an official press event promoting his role in the second season of Good Omens, Tennant wore a rainbow Pride pin and a T-shirt that said, Leave trans kids alone, you absolute freaks so that every photo taken of him that day featured the pin and shirt.Spoke passionately about Pride Month (@) Last June, while on former politician Ed Milibands Reasons to be Cheerful podcast, Tennant talked about being cheerful that its Pride Month, saying that the fact that Pride Month is existing and flourishing and is something thats happening at a time when the world seems to be getting in some corners worryingly intolerant and weirdly backward.
