Mark Angelo Cummings and Lynna Arielle Lopez have thrown down the gauntlet and are hosting battles on their Facebook pages. Formerly trans activists, they are now both fiercely campaigning against the current wave of childhood transitioning. Comments are running in both directions. Here is one from Mark’s GenderTrender link/post today that should interest my followers:
My
daughter between ages 2-11 was a massive tom boy. She wore flannels,
blue jogging pants insisted her hair be cut short, told people her name
was Bobby, loved playing with “boy” toys, hated dresses, cried when I
tried to do her hair, refused any “girly” clothing, etc.
If
I would have “trusted” in her instinct, I can’t imagine the horrors she
would be facing now. Because upon entering fifth grade, my daughter
suddenly wanted skirts, started playing with barbies, and turned into a
more “feminine girl” than myself over a few week period out of no where.
She
wavered back and forth until age 14, played with her identity and her
orientation, but now, she’s SOLIDLY enjoying being a woman, is engaged,
and is “feminine” in the likes that can actually irritate me LOL
We
were talking just the other day about this whole trans issue because of
my recent interview. The FIRST thing she said was: “I am so lucky you
weren’t like those parents and didn’t drag me to the doctor to shoot me
up with crap. The trans community talks about high rates of suicide,
that’s gonna get bigger, because I would seriously kill myself if I had
to be stuck in a dude body because at 8 I wanted to be a boy and you
took it seriously…
