Danann Tyler, who was born male but now dresses as a little girl and has long hair, says she was bullied at school and felt hurt by other children telling her she was a boy.
The eight-year-old MTF (male to female) from Orange County, California, is the subject of a new feature length documentary about transgender people.
In a special edition of the Anderson talk show, 'Children &Teens Caught In The Wrong Bodies' which is scheduled to air on Wednesday, she told journalist Anderson Cooper: 'My school, people were telling me that I was a boy and it made me really sad.'
Danann's parents, Sarah and Bill Tyler, who also appeared on the show, said they did not know what was wrong with their son when, from aged two, he insisted he was a girl.
By age six Danann was so unhappy she was threatening to hang herself.
Doctors diagnosed the child as bipolar, dyslexic and ADHD and prescribed various medications.
The Tylers consulted gay friends, who said that she was probably more than just a gay child.

Not to defend her, but maybe she is intersexed...(rare, but it does happen).
Chances of that are slim to none, and slim left town.
Perzackly. Which is one of the things that bugs me about these people referring to the child (or any so-called transsexual) as “she”, when it’s clearly incorrect/untrue.
Or rather: Psychiatrists and surgeons drumming up business. Cooper is a stupid homo!
True, but growing up around medical people (my aunts and uncles, my dad was a nuclear Chemistist...my mom - though was a stay at home mom, had a degree, too) I know that more cases are out there and it will be growing. Do I think it is common, no, but maybe some of the so called gays might be intersexed?
with all the chemicals put into our foods, who knows if that effects the XY cells - to become XXY or XYY.
I'm not a doctor -- and I don't play on on the internet - but, I'm wondering if intersex is becoming more common.
The boy's dad is a police officer, so I don't think he's a LIBERAL...maybe the mom is...
I could call myself a United States Marine but it isn’t true!
If this was being done to a dog, the world would be screaming. But homosexuals have manged to pervert the well being of defenseless children so for the time being this is ok.
XYY are called ‘super males’ and are usually over 6 feet tall with many having below average intelligence.
XXY is called Klinefelters syndrome. They are male, but have problems.
There are also XO females, with just ONE copy of an X chromosome. They have problems as well, including that they would fail the Barr body test for being a female - that test looks for the second X in women to be a ball of chromatin.
Then there are XY females. They have a mutation in the receptor for testosterone. They look female, with above average breast size, cannot get pregnant and have no secondary body hair upon puberty, and they have below average intelligence.
All babies start development with both potentially both sets of genitalia, based upon hormone signals, one set develops and the other withers away - usually.
But when problems happen it is almost NEVER because of chromosomal problems.
Just my 0.02$

...just to add to the confusion.... ;^)
What produces the sexual
identity of intersexes?

Thanks for the response.
The subtext here is the propagandizing in favor of gender reassignment surgery for minors, a.k.a. the legal mutilation of preadolescent children.
