A lesbian couple featured in a BuzzFeed video on gender non-conforming parenting is trying to force their son to have a queer relationship with his gender despite his protests.
Its really funny, because hes like super into sports, Michelle said. Maybe he was like an Olympic athlete in his past life. He like, came with all of these sporting talents that are like visible at 17 months. Thats what Dashiell liked growing up. She easily relates to him on that level.
Im constantly like trying to queer my relationship with him and get him to wear tutus. He hates it. Hes just like, no, Michelle said.
When I catch myself trying to do these things, it ends up making me feel really retro and dumb about gender, Michelle continued. It just takes me away from the reality of like, him. Atticus. Like who is he? What does he want? And the sort of purity of the things that hes interested in or delighted by.
Obviously, I want to support whatever he wants to be, Michelle said.
However, later in the video, Michelle says, Hes taking in kind of kid media. And he has this great book thats like, just pictures and words. But when you open it up, its like, a picture of a girl and a picture of a boy, and its like, Girl, Boy, and Im just like, Child, Child.
This is where he starts learning what things are. And so I hate the idea that hes getting it imprinted on him that people who look like this are boys, and people who look like that are girls.
And even something thats like Progressive like Sesame Street, all the monsters are boys unless they have like a bow in their hair or a sparkly necklace on. Like, why is Old McDonald a guy? Why couldnt it be a lesbian farmer?
Its everywhere. It is. Its everywhere. I think those are things we are probably more aware of that most people anyway. But with him, were probably really sensitive to it, Dashiell added.
Sometimes, the best thing to do feels to be constantly challenging and sometimes, its almost to ignore gender completely. Hes being raised by a gender non-conforming person, so just the existence of Dashiell is going to be a huge piece of information about the reality of what gender is or isnt.
Everyone needs to be reconsidering the way that theyre presenting gender to their kids. Its not even whether or not Atticus is personally going to be a genderqueer or genderfluid person. Atticus can grow up to be a completely traditional cisgendered male and he needs to understand the variety of genders that are out there so that he can be a respectful human being in the world, Michelle concluded.
CHILD ABUSE !
Child abuse.
In that kid’s case, it wouldn’t be homophobia to resist. His survival instincts should be telling him to kick them both in the nuts and run away.
Like - shut up.
Hard to believe this wasn’t satire.
Ohhhhh I get it now! Their fetish is more important than millions of years of evolution!

Sick pathetic creatures.
Narcissistic, mentally ill. Spreading their diseased thoughts to a helpless captive. This is utterly evil.
This is why the Regernus study found that children of the opposite sex of a homosexual couple had WORSE life outcomes than if raised by a single mother.
In short, while a boy raised by a single mother had 3x the odds of being mentally ill, jailed, held back, end up on welfare/disability, flunk out of school compared to married heterosexual parents ... his odds of a worse life outcome were even higher if it was a boy raised by lesbians or girl raised by homosexual men.
We know what the generation after the Millenials will be called:
The F***** Up Generation
They will re-word the WHO song in celebration.
“People try to put us down”
“Just because we get around”
“My Gender-ation”
