okay.

the director of The Matrix Trilogy and V for Vendetta just came out as a trans woman, which is something usually we should be supporting were it not for the circumstances of how she came out.

Lilly Wachowski was doorstepped by The Daily Mail, blackmailed, told that if she didn’t come for an interview with them they would out her. Lilly was forced to come out before she was ready.

this is disgustingly unethical journalism and general human behaviour, and it’s not the first time this has happened. 

after the Mail outted Lucy Meadows, a primary school teacher, in 2013, she killed herself. this is ridiculously irresponsible and dangerous and it has to stop because lives are at risk.
