I really could care less what the GSoA decided in this case. What REALLY bothers me is the acceptance of the claim that a 2-year-old child could understand enough about gender to *decide* he was a girl. SERIOUS problems exist in this child’s MOTHER. I feel very sorry for this young boy and he is in my prayers...
This gender-bending has been going on for a while, but not so extreme.
My mom was from a relatively conservative background, but based on her early 1970s psychology education she tried to give me, her then-eight-year-old son, a baby doll for Christmas. It was trendy to break stereotypes. (The doll was black too, I guess it doubled as an anti-racist measure).
Of course, I assumed Santa Claus had misplaced my sisters' gift, so I gave it to them to play with and wouldn't listen to her foolish claims that it was intended for me.
Mom and I sure can laugh about that incident now, I hope this kid can turn out so fortunate.
