Can't sign from outside the EU, it seems.

With apologies for the swear.

Fuck! The UK is not in the dropdown.

Bloody Brexit.

@NotBob @asdil12 @glynmoody @kennethb You can sign from the UK if you're an EU citizen. Select "Other country..." - it's a bit confusing, because they then don't let you select a country, but it will work.

@asdil12 I keep getting confused. Is conversion therapy not a good thing? Like helping people adjust their body to their gender? Or am I mixing terminologies here?

@DJGummikuh @asdil12 It's Conversion Therapy against their will, like they did to Alan Turing. This is not Trans Healthcare.

@DJGummikuh @asdil12 No problem, it confused me as well until I learned more about it.

@asdil12

Does this actually help?

I am not trolling, I have a genuine interest in the answer.

One of the things I have seen USians do is create a petition (with change.org or whoever), collect signatures (and personal data) then ask the signers to share the petition (and collect /that/ info and spam the sharees with fundraising asks). The petition is actually forwarded, and ignored.

All the folks who sign pat themselves on their virtual backs because they "did something."

@vor I'm actually not sure how legally binding a EU-petition is in general, but at least it is is the official petition portal of the EU government.

@asdil12 @vor Unlike change.org etc, if you create a government petition, if you get enough signatures, they are legally bound to engage with and react to it. The details depend on the individual government's regulations / local laws.
