A former Texas educator filed a federal discrimination complaint against a learning center in Katy, Texas, after being fired for refusing to address a 6-year-old girl as a transgender boy.The boys parents were a same sex couple
Thoughts? o.O
Was the teacher justified in calling the student a girl
its arguable that people shouldnt be pressing gender on their children in general, but thats kind of beside the point
while i dont think you should put a kid on hormones per say at age six, i think that a child exploring their gender identity should be validated.
the sexuality of their parents is irrelevant in this case, but even though i watched the video there wasnt anything suggesting that their parents were pushing masculinity onto their child.
I mean, at the age of 6 Drake knew he was The Man... so maybe it is possible

The teacher has no right to put a say into how the parents are raising their child. But with that being said, i dont think a 6 year old child has a firm grasp on sexuality and gender meanings, and their parents pushing on it may make them confused later on. But what do i know, i'm just a loser who plays em
Do you believe the parents more likely than not pushed the sexuality onto the girl? At the age of 6 I don't think I was self identifying either way, so do you think it is possibly a political statement?
or, being open-minded enough to do so, let their kid express themselves however they like
Comments like this are why the LGBT community has enemies.

Same sex parents, transgender 6 year old.

One of the insigtful comments on the video in regards to this matter:
