I have a retraction to make. Last year I tweeted this in response to #GetTheLOut in London.

Fabulous thread by a lesbian:

And sueanddumplings you’ll probably not be back to this thread, but no matter, nothing bitter when Labi sings.

I'm glad you like Labi Siffre... who has made a number of tweets condemning transphobes.

Not transphobic just made really sad by self mutilation.

Oh how interesting sue I’d be interested in you sharing.

I love his music (that won’t change) and his twitter bio reads:
Atheist, Homosexual, Black, Songwriter, Musician, Singer, Poet, Social-Commentator. English, British, EU Citizen intent on retaining that triple status.

Which was interesting cos I didn’t even know he lived in the UK.

Sorry NeurotrashWarrior - I’ve been very rude

This thread is for Charlie Evans.

sue if you do come back, maybe we should take it to DMs or start a new thread.

I just liked the song /artist and don’t want to dump on this thread.

Charlie ..if you are reading this thread.. I would like to get this translated into Spanish and used as a monologue in an event where I live for International women's day 2020, as part of a joint event with other monologues written by different women. Would you agree to me using some or all of your words? I would not change them , only to shorten the piece if necessary. What do you think?

Wow reading that brought a lump to my throat. I'm 3 times Charlies age but completely in awe of her bravery. If you are reading Charlie, please keep telling your story as I think you could be a game changer for lots of confused teenagers.

Charlie
Thank you.

Amazing thread. It highlights the harm gender ideology can do.

'it wasn't right for me so it can't be right for anyone

Sue, if there are children for whom 'it wasn't right' being led to believe that it IS right for them, past the point of no return to a healthy body -- surely you agree that that needs to be avoided?

Charlie, you absolute ⭐️

I’m glad to see now, the support on Twitter vastly outnumbers the non-supportive. She is so courageous to speak out, most detransitioners (quite understandably) want to keep their heads down.

Huge respect to Charlie and Thomasin for publicly saying what they have said.

Gender ideology harms everyone.

So brave Charlie. Much respect to you.

Pure bravery and courage, not only standing up for what you believe is right, but also accepting you are fine as you are, it's the world that is broken.
