Jamie Wallis has become the first British member of parliament to come out as trans, while also revealing he was a victim of rape.
Wallis then revealed that he had been the victim of a rape in September last year. A man he met online raped him after Wallis refused to have sex without the man wearing a condom."It is not something you ever forget, and it is not something you ever move on from," said Wallis, who specified in a follow-up statement that he's still using"he/him" pronouns.
In response to Wallis' statement on Wednesday, Johnson tweeted:"Sharing this very intimate story would have taken an immense amount of courage. Thank you"The Conservative Party I lead will always give you, and everyone else, the love and support you need to be yourself." Conservative Party Chairman Oliver Dowden said:"Proud of my colleague Jamie Wallis. As a Conservative family we stand together, and we will support you. I hope that your brave statement will help others."
