Did…. Nigella Lawson, beloved British food writer, say, at the top of her lungs, “trans rights”?
You bet she did, after the 60-year-old proved that by supporting the LGBT+ community you are blessed with the ability to never age. Science.
Lawson yesterday shared a New York Times article about how “they” can be used in the singular, despite what some not-at-all transphobic people who do not have a degree in linguistics say.

Moreover, she once said she is a “gay man in a woman’s body” back in 2016, a remark made by her late husband, John Diamond, for her affinity with the queer community.
Lawson’s support for the trans and non-binary community comes at a troubling time, where anti-trans violence continues to surge, toxic factions of the community campaign against them and trans people are pelted with questions and mockery about their right to exist.
