re: Parents allow three year old to live life as transgender.

For F's sake!

you know they're shitty parents when they name their kid ryland.

Every school I ever went to had at least one.

Que? I definitely understand collegiate unisex, but are you telling us that your elementary school had single sex bathrooms?

You're an idiot.

When do gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people first know?
People can realize their sexual orientation and gender identity at any point during their lives. Many simply grow up knowing, while some come to understand their identity and orientation later in life (in their teens or 20s, for example). It is important to note that nothing someone encounters in life can 'make' one gay, bisexual, lesbian, or transgender. Although events in a person's life can be catalysts toward self-discovery, sexual experience is not necessary for anyone to understand their sexual orientation. How does a heterosexual male know he is attracted to women before having sexual experience, or a heterosexual woman know that she is attracted to men? They just know. It is the same with gay, lesbian, and bisexual people. Similarly, a transgender person does not have to have lived as a gender to know that it is his/her correct gender.

How do you know what is and isn't a fact? Especially when you have zero experience with the subject of this topic. You're looking to science for facts it cannot give you only guesses of what it thinks are facts.

I mean, I'm pretty sure they were for teachers and faculty and not students, but I saw them. Outside of an appeal to tradition, I don't see why we even have different restrooms for different sexes.

Bisexuality is real. Just because you can't imagine yourself being attracted to both sexes doesn't mean someone else can't be.

According to several gay posters on this board it is dramatically different depending on the sex of the person. This is not coming from me this is coming from them. Guys that say they are Bi are really just gay and trying to fool themselves and will eventually be with just men as they age. Women that are Bi test the waters because the social stigma is not as bad and they can have their fun and experiment but if they continue to see both sexes will eventually return to just the pole as the age. The opinions of these posters and many gay people I know in real life is that true bisexuality is very rare.

I asked this exact question to two openly gay posters after I had asked a gay guy and a lesbian I work with. All four gave the same response.

It isn't a choice.

No. It's just acceptable now without fear of violence or discrimination. It's the Civil Rights issue of the 2000s much like MLK.

Terrible parenting. Bordering on abuse.

Everybody will join hands and clap and celebrate tolerance while this child gets more disturbed every day.

1. Regardless of what your child is dealing with, you do not post detailed descriptions on public and social media.

2. You do not "use" your child to further public opinion on LGBT issues through conference appearances.

3. They are wrong in how they are handling is no matter which sex ryland ends up being attracted to.

Gender identity is determined very early in life but not as early as some of those pictures indicate. These parents place social agendas first and child privacy and welfare second.

This child will almost certainly grow up to have major issues.
