Male teen forced to remove makeup for DMV photo

Chase Culpepper is a teen who wears women's clothing and makeup on a regular basis -- that is, until he was forced to remove said makeup for his driver's license picture.

Reporter: "The DMV says it does not allow anyone to wear a disguise in photos."

Culpepper: "This is how I am every single day. This is who I am, and this is how I choose to express myself." (Via WFXB)

The DMV says it will not allow 16-year-old Culpepper, who identifies as gender nonconforming, to retake his picture because it goes against policy. His mother is upset, too.

"My government was telling my son, 'You must conform to our ideals of what a man should look like.' ... I'm very proud of him.'"

This happened in South Carolina. Wonder if he could get some support on that nonconforming gender thing from his US senator.

"My government was telling my son, 'You must conform to our ideals of what a man should look like.' ... I'm very proud of him.'"

First clue.

Ah, poor widdle baby! A driver's license is a privilege, not a right. Wipe the lipstick off and man up.

Seems like every time there's one of these kind of gender-confused or gender-defiant people, the parent(s) are very much enablers to their behavior.

Pretty soon the whites in this country will not know who or what they are and the reproduction process will end. We are digging our own grave and dragging the dirt in on ourselves. Glad I won’t be here for the demise but I feel for my grandkiddies. They will never know the freedom I knew.

His mother is upset, too.

[SkyDancer]

[Army Air Corps]

You dig transvestites?

[SkyDancer]

Good grief! I just made a comment. Get real, okay?

[Army Air Corps]

Just teasing.

[MrB]

Nope, no one “forced” him to remove makeup.

They just said he couldn’t get a driver’s license photo with it on.

[SkyDancer]

Sorry, I reacted before I saw who posted. My bad. We’re good, okay???? But he is cute ....

Was the kids name, by any chance, Gore-Don? In NV, you may not wear your glasses and must tuck your hair behind your ears(male or female or in between I guess) if it is that long. One of my buddies and his wife that recently moved here were wondering why and my reply was that “In the morgue you probably won’t have your glasses on and they can just move your hair as needed to ID the body”. I don’t know if that’s the real reason or not but I sure got funny looks from both of them. :>}

“gender nonconforming” is another term for mentally ill.

The Bible says train up a child. . . . looks like the mother really did a great job. How sad!
