Man Refuses To Cancel $2,500 Harry Potter Trip—Girlfriend Says He’s Supporting Transphobia

This AITAH post went viral for a reason—it hits that perfect storm of money, morals, and Harry Potter. A guy finally books his dream trip to Universal Orlando to visit the Wizarding World after getting a small inheritance from his late father. He’s spent $2,500 on non-refundable tickets, flights, and hotels.

But when his girlfriend finds out, she’s furious—not because he didn’t invite her, but because she believes going supports transphobia due to J.K. Rowling’s views. She demands he cancel the trip on principle.

He refuses, saying he can’t afford to throw away that kind of money. Now he’s wondering if he’s the jerk for putting financial loss above her values. Reddit had thoughts.
