Washington (CNN)Rep. Mike Honda this week became one of the first lawmakers in Congress to support the idea of a gender spectrum and publicly announce a family member, his granddaughter, is transgender.
The California Democrat urged acceptance of transgender individuals in a profile of his 8-year-old granddaughter Malisa, who was born a boy, in the San Jose Mercury News.

People may say, "It's just a phase or they'll grow out of it," Honda told the paper.
"But we have to be a little bit more in tune with what youngsters are telling us. From there we can develop better solutions, be more thoughtful," he added.
The congressman, who is a member of the House LGBTQ caucus, hadn't publicly spoken about his granddaughter's transition until recently.
He had the family take a new photo for his campaign materials last cycle to reflect his granddaughter's new identity, telling Malisa that "we need you to be who you are in the campaign photos."
On Wednesday, he brought it to wider attention with a tweet saying he's the "proud grandpa of a transgender grandchild."

Personally I think these kids are in sick in head you got these yenta parents try get be HIP parent I am accept of what ever kid up too
I notice that last few years
I’m a Boy - The Who
One girl was called Jean Marie
Another little girl was Felicity
Another little girl was Sally Joy
The other was me, and I’m a boy
My name is Bill, and I’m a head case
They practice making up on my face
Yeah, I feel lucky if I get trousers to wear
Spend evenings taking hairpins from my hair
[Chorus:]
I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But my ma won’t admit it
I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But if I say I am, I get it
Put your frock on, Jean Marie
Plait your hair, Felicity
Paint your nails, little Sally Joy
Put this wig on, little boy
[Chorus]
Wanna play cricket on the green
Ride my bike across the street
Cut myself and see my blood
Wanna come home all covered in mud
[Chorus]
* Higher valuation by teachers for girls and discrimination against boys; “The WAR AGAINST BOYS: How Misguided Feminism Is Harming Our Young Men” was written in 2001 and all the more true
* Progressivism pushing the idea that biological sex is as mutable as sexuality, despite the fact that it requires surgical mutilation and massive amounts of hormones, so any kid who has feminine tendencies is pushed to “transgenderism”
* It is the hot fad in psychotherapy, despite the fact that 70-80% of kids who associate with the opposite gender self-rectify without therapy, and it is probably popular because it doesn’t cure the person’s actual disorder but guarantees a patient for life

Maybe he could become Muslim and wear robes, they’re kind of like dresses.
>>This so called father needs to step down from his job and raise their kid. The kid is obviously going through some mental illness and instead of just saying acceptance then maybe he needs to help the poor child.<<
That is now illegal in California—it is against the law for counselors to counsel children on being one’s own gender. It is perfectly fine to counsel them to be the gender they are not, however.
It’s all so difficult, now. In the old days all a boy wanted to do was get a peek at the girl’s locker room. Now with Facebook’s 39 genders, it’s downright difficult to determine your gender. It now takes a cadre of guidance counselors and therapists to help you determine your gender!
Perversity Spectrum.
Everything but God-blessed man-woman marriage.
And to hell with anyone who says that’s narrow minded or exclusive. IT’S A DEFINITION, NOT AN AGENDA. In their world they want to view it as something other than what it is.
Marriage has an actual definition. A definition is not an agenda. A definition describes what something IS. IF you don’t like the definition too fricking bad.
Let’s see a picture of the little freak.
Those are some sick and twisted drama queen parents that were looking for some “inner child” instead of just letting their girl grow up.
This fruity mother has a wild imagination. Some of the most Tom-boy girls I ever knew growing up grew up to be very normal and attractive women. She wanted something different to bring attention to herself.
This bizarre woman is giving her child a very difficult life. Her child wasn’t born that way. Her child was influenced to be that way. Her child was born a girl and that’s what she is.
Actually, I have wondered whether it is the female hormones in birth control pills being pissed out and eventually contaminating the water supply. That would explain the explosion in male homosexuals and the generally weak and effeminate men in America.
Don’t know whether that would explain lesbians however.
The man isn’t wearing the pants in that family. He’s a spineless wuss.
Now the US is the land of fags and trannies, I’d rather be part of Mexico anyway. Wake me when the revolution stafts.
EIGHT freaking years old?
And a political prop by Gramps . . . whatta family
This one is 5 years old.

Five. Years. Old.
The parents are the enablers and should be forced to attend the psychological counseling also...........
Every time some liberal wackjob issues a new fagwa against God-given marriage, we have to jump in line and shout tolerance or we lose our businesses!
The reason for the blow up in the media about homosexual and other gender sinful activities is explained by the fact that the Supreme Court is hearing arguments on whether America will be forced to accept non-biblical marriage.
Those arguments take place April 28.
Anyone who thinks there is just a “coincidence” this week of: lesbian pregnancy pics, Bruce Jenner nonsense, this Demon Rat congress clown applauding the confusion of a child, etc. needs to get a grip on how the media tries to fashion public opinion.
To confuse boys and girls takes a democrat..
There have been cross dressing men throughout history ( Ed Wood, a couple of Dauphins of France, Caligula, a colonial era governor of N. Y. ) and probably a lot more unknown ones, which predate B.C. pills, etc. ! Some people have just been born crazy/influenced by something weird; however, they, for the most part, tried to keep it "quite" !
Today, many people want to be "famous" ( or their parents do ! ) for ANY reason. With the new technologies, this has become easier and easier to do and for all the WRONG reasons !
