First we had "I am Jazz" on a subscription cable channel that not everyone watched. Now Jazz is a legal adult, and a new star is born on Netflix, the huge digital channel where most of us in the US go for our films and TV binge watching. But unlike in the case of Jazz...https://twitter.com/netflix/status/1286390878546694149 …

This child might have been allowed to pursue those forbidden "effeminate" interests, possible growing up to be a gay man.

This ACLU clip conveniently leaves out what happened before Kai proclaimed at 3.5 years old "I'm a girl, mommy. You know I'm a girl." The interviews mom gave to magazines (excerpted in above tweets) reveal a more complicated story.https://twitter.com/ACLU/status/1169754583620575234?s=20 …

Watch this old interview with
@profjmb about twin brothers, one of whom grew up to be gay. The twins are also interviewed). Imagine this occurring today: Greg would have been identified as "trans" due to his more "effeminate" interests as a child.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cx7p4J8p9Os …Show this thread
