Charlie is lots of things- a lesbian, radical feminist, anarchist, working class (origin) and a northerner…

Charlie is not queer, a femme, a ‘woman’, an indiscriminate man hater (I just don’t like men who are sexist which means most of them), a student, a socialist, pro-censorship or anti-censorship nor do I live anywhere near London.
