They really get what the issue is. Who Stonewall are really centring. And it's not them, no more is it people who are LGB.

It's incredibly brave of them to make that statement.

Now would be a good time for a similar letter from the homosexual and lesbian members, who have become disillusioned with stonewall, because of their permitted harassment and manipulation of those members.

Breath of fresh air!
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Eager to hear Stonewall's reply.
Also telling how the word transexual is now being appropriated too
I hope this movement gains international attention

A strong message, heartfelt and very clearly articulated. Good for them.

They are distancing themselves from stonewalls current ideals.

When an organisation issues a graphic - and shares it widely - putting a named population beneath an umbrella of one term, and that named population disagree?

That population are fully able to say publicly, we weren't asked, we don't agree, stop doing it.

Very brave. Bravo!

Is it possible to leave an organization that doesn't have members?

Stonewall doesn't represent anyone apart from the corporations that give it money

Knicknackpaddyflak · 12/02/2019 20:45

Good for them.

I'm fully with get the L out, and many friends, gay and lesbian, no longer are willing to have anything to do with Stonewall or even call themselves LGB as it's become a political position that absolutely doesn't represent them.

I have huge respect for each and every one of them

Upthepong · 12/02/2019 20:37

Echoing others, this is very brave and encouraging. I also hope that others sign up to this.

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 12/02/2019 20:34

Good for them!
This takes Lots of courage!

Very brave. I hope more names join their list in days to come.

Binglebong · 12/02/2019 20:26

Very brave. One of the things I hate about this whole thing is the way transsexuals are getting caught up in people's fetishes and quests for power. They are being harmed too.
