Wow I thought she was perhaps subtle about her hatred, and that's why she isn't universally rejected yet, but apparently that's not the case:

Calling a man a man is not 'bullying' or 'punching down.' Crossdressing straight men are currently one of the most pandered-to demographics in existence, and women are under no obligation to applaud the people caricaturing us. — J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) May 12, 2024

You can have a difference of opinions with regard to sexual and gender identities, and not be rude about it. This is just rude though.
