Disney heir comes out as transgender, family slams Florida law

Roy P. Disney, grandnephew of Walt Disney, revealed that his child is transgender in a fundraising email for the Human Rights Campaign.

“My wife, Sheri, and I have been members of HRC for over 20 years,” he reportedly wrote. “Equality matters deeply to us, especially because our child, Charlee, is transgender and a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community.”

“We were heartbroken when Ron DeSantis signed the ‘Don’t Say Gay or Trans’ law in Florida,” Disney continued in the email. “The fight isn’t over, and we are determined to do everything we can to stop this from happening in other places.”

Charlee Disney, a high school biology and environmental science teacher, told the LA Times, “I had very few openly gay role models.”

“And I certainly didn’t have any trans or nonbinary role models. I didn’t see myself reflected in anyone, and that made me feel like there was something wrong with me," noting that this legislation will only make life harder for youth who feel similarly.

Roy Disney also said he would be matching up to $500,000 or more in an effort to raise $1 million for the HRC. Previously, Charlee announced they would match up to $250,000 in donations to the HRC at the organization's March gala in Los Angeles, but they've since increased the pledge.

According to a report, the HRC rejected a March donation of $5 million from Disney CEO Bob Chapek until it builds "on [its] public commitment and work with LGBTQ+ advocates.”

We won’t accept your crazy. That is up to you. To insist society acquiesce to your child’s delusion is selfish.

That’s the whole point of the legislation - to NOT have roll models who are psychologically damaged and seek to groom little children without their parents even knowing about it!

"and that made me feel like there was something wrong with me""

He should have gone with his first instincts. Sometimes those are the right ones.

Truly messed up - you are heartbroken that young kids won't be sexualized in Florida. What in the world?

Ok, here we go, another orchestrated event in the Disney effort to force all this transsexual business down our throats.

They were just sitting on this, until they decided it was time for the great reveal, in their public relations campaign to show us all that they are liberal on this LBGT AND OTHER INITIALS business.

See, we are supposed to now be shocked and awed, and say look, someone in the Disney family is transgender, and OMG we are supposed to be liberal on these issues, and that’s why Disney Corporate is so forceful on this, because it’s personal with the family.

This is all a public relations gambit. I think we can all see what’s going on here.

"...proud member of the LGBTQ+ community"

That underlines the major problem with sexual deviancy -- being proud of the sin. If homosexuality was just any other sin you're tempted to do, and even do sometimes, but struggle to end it as you try to live a holier life and be more like Jesus, then homosexuality would be no different from other sins.

It's being committed to the sin and even defining yourself by the sin that makes it probably the closest thing we have in the U.S. that's like the mark of the beast (which I always believed is listed as being put on the forehead and wrist to symbolize one's creed like Moses' teaching of writing God's laws on yours and your family's foreheads and wrists).
