Sometimes nature does make a mistake. There are genetic abberrations, and other factors which impact a person’s sex.

This is a different situation than homosexuality where an individual elects to follow an abonormal life style.

Just by looking at picures of this kid, there was a physical appearance which was not masculine and it went beyond dress or hairstyle.

Certainly a very sad story, but you can count on counter-culture freaks like Couric to remove it from the narrow context of a tragic genuine biological abnormality and project it onto the political stage as representative of a general homosexual “rights” issue.

The parents let the kid start “transitioning” at 5 years old, so who knows if they were giving him hormone treatments. Even if not, prepubescent kids don’t usually look all that masculine or feminine.

Indeed. Correct.

While something may occur naturally, like a birth defect or the brain wired wrongly, that means it is naturally occurring. . .but it is not normal.

My son was born with a heart defect so we can say he was ‘born that way,’ but at the same time we can say his heart is not normal.

This distinction between natural and normal is lost on the left.
