Mother Touts Transgender 3-Year-Old ‘Son’ to Media

For some time now, left-wing media outlets have been equating the push for so-called transgender “rights” with the exploitation of children. This week, Reuters featured New York City mother Jody Patterson and her eight-year-old daughter Penelope, whom Patterson said began living as a transgender “boy” at the ripe old age of three.

“Why are you so angry?” Patterson said she asked her three-year-old. “And he had a very clear answer to that, which was because everyone thinks I’m a girl. And I’m not. So I thought, I said sure, Penelope, however you feel inside is fine. It’s what inside counts. And then Penelope looked at me and said, no, mama, I don’t feel like a boy, I am a boy.”
