Move over, J.K. Rowling. Another rumored TERF is getting attention today.
Grammy award-winning singer Adele got slammed online for admitting that she loves being a woman at the Brit Awards while accepting the “Artist of the Year” prize, a new award that was created by merging the previous Best Male and Best Female Artist awards, Page Six <a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/02/09/adele-says-i-love-being-a-woman-at-gender-neutral-event">reported</a>. 
This was especially noteworthy as the Brit Awards made headlines late last year for intentionally eliminating categories separated by gender and merging them into a single, gender neutral award. 
“I understand why the name of this award has changed but I really love being a woman and being a female artist. I do!” Adele said as the crowd cheered. “I’m really proud of us, I really, really am.”
The “Rolling in the Deep” singer got a lot of vocal support from the Brit Awards audience, but LGBT activists on social media weren’t as happy about the singer’s comments.
“Please, no, ADELE can’t be a TERF,” performer Jacob, whose bio includes the descriptor “staunch feminist,” shared with his thousands of Twitter followers.
“Who’d have thought Adele was a transphobe and would use her platform to call for the destruction of the trans community. Especially the confused teenagers,” another Twitter user lamented.
Others said they “lost a lot of respect for Adele” and would no longer “spend a cent on her music,” The Times of London <a href="https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/db39b05a-891d-11ec-8600-c48a9935f856?shareToken=6ecfb65143e01fe83ad4756d827645d2">reported</a>.
But not everyone was annoyed at Adele. Some fans reacted by rolling their eyes at the backlash, saying it indicated a frightening trend.
Author Jane Symons stuck up for the Grammy winner. 
“A decade ago, if someone had said a woman would [be criticized] for the thought-crime of saying she liked being a woman, I would have laughed at such a ludicrous suggestion. Now it is happening,” she <a href="https://twitter.com/JaneSymons1/status/1491312290053853186">wrote</a> on Twitter. “I don&#8217;t know whether to cry or scream. Congratulations #Adele, and thank you.”
In a Spectator <a href="https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/adele-is-right-to-take-a-pop-at-gender-neutral-awards">op-ed</a>, Debbie Hayton shared her thoughts on the situation. She also compared Adele to the much-maligned Rowling and indicated that canceling these women was not a good direction to head in.
&#8220;The temptation to apologize for apparent wrong-think might be huge. But her gender police critics are unlikely to be satisfied by apologies, so it&#8217;s vital she stands firm: Adele’s message to women and girls was inspirational,” Hayton, who is a teacher, wrote in the piece. “Here was a woman – who has sold tens of millions of albums – telling the world she was proud to be a woman. That&#8217;s something to celebrate, not condemn.”
Adele was already facing criticism after canceling her Vegas residency at the last minute in January, only to re-emerge from hiding at her boyfriend Rich Paul’s house a few weeks later and say she was attending and performing at the Brit Awards. The artist showed up with a diamond ring on her finger, which has also sparked engagement rumors.
