GA Voice readers were divided over the case of D., a second grader in Townsend, Ga.

[...]

"I am so sorry D is having to go through that. No child or human should have to go through that. I am also the parent of a transgender child who is 9. He was also homeschooled last year and so badly wanted to be in public school, where he belongs. This year we signed him up for public school and they could not have been more supportive. It is actually heartwarming, and to see how proud and happy my son is to be back in school meeting new friends and being able to be his authentic gender. Good luck to you and your son."

[...]

"What? Putting a boy in a tutu for three years will not make him a female. This is a little boy, and dressing like one was not what made him such."

Quote"The child is not a boy. She may wish to dress in a certain way, but it's not clothing that decides whether one is male or female, it's chromosomes. No matter what this child wears, she is female. It cannot be changed.

Two declarations, the first is scientifically incorrect, the second is factually incorrect.
