"The show "Pretty Little Liars" has dug itself into a hole with a tweet many are calling transphobic."

"On August 24, the ABC Family show's official Twitter account sent out a post to its more than 3 million followers with a wildly problematic caption referring to Charlotte DiLaurentis, a transgender character on the show. "He. She. It. Charlotte. #PrettyLittleLiars," the caption read.

Though the tweet has since been deleted, Parker Molloy, a writer for Upworthy, took a screenshot before it was taken down and posted it on Twitter."
