I don’t like this speculation. While it’s fair to say she has issues with her own relationship to femininity, claiming she’s a closeted man is going too far. It reeks too much of the whole “homophobes are closeted gays” trope, which is a kinda homophobic in how it blames queer people for their own oppression.
On top of all that, nobody can decide other people’s gender for them. It doesn’t matter if the person is a suspected egg or a transphobe who spites their own gender; do not invalidate the gender of others.
It’s because she really wants to be a man, and takes her (his?) aggression about penis envy out on trans people.
She prefers “JK” because it’s more masculine
The real reason Joanne hates trans women is because they’re giving up being a man, the thing JK wants most of all.
Edit: It is no accident that JK Rowling has never written a female POV character

Homophobes ARE closeted gays, you think it’s a concidence Grindr keeps crashing anytime there’s a Republican convention?
