'People who menstruate.' I'm sure there used to be a word for those people.

Someone help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud?', the award-winning writer told her 14.5million followers.
Stung by criticism, the writer - whose Harry Potter books have sold more than 500 million copies worldwide - sought to justify her decision to speak out in a deeply personal essay.
Recalling how the trauma of 'a serious sexual assault I suffered in my twenties' had informed her thinking about the trans issue and women's rights, Ms Rowling explained: 'Like every other domestic abuse and sexual assault survivor I know, I feel nothing but empathy and solidarity with trans women who've been abused by men.'   
The handprints were installed when Rowling received the Edinburgh award, by popular vote from the city in 2008, just a year after she released the Deathly Hallows
In a series of tweets, Rowling said she supported transgender rights but did not believe in 'erasing' the concept of biological sex. 
Rowling's remarks sparked backlash from a range of stars including Rupert Grint, Emma Watson - who played Hermione in the film franchise, Daniel Radcliffe who played Harry and Eddie Redmayne, who stars in her Fantastic Beasts films.

Yesterday the editor of the world's biggest Harry Potter fan site, Melissa Anelli, of The Leaky Couldron, urged supporters to stop buying JK Rowling's books and films over the author's 'transphobia' row.  
Anelli retweeted a 'guide' to her Twitter followers, a tweet that stated: 'STOP GIVING HER MONEY: don't buy new books, don't buy official merch, don't see the play, don't rent or buy the movies, don't see the movies in theaters, don't go to the theme park.

We give zero dollars to transphobes.'
Earlier in the week it emerged that a school in West Sussex had dropped its plans to name a house after the author, telling parents Ms Rowling was 'no longer an appropriate role model for our community'.
