[ Click above to embiggen: British parents Beck Laxton and Kieran Cooper dressed their son Sasha up as a girl and hid his true gender for the first five years of his life as a sociological experiment ]

Do you think this is child abuse?

I’ll warn you right now that when I read the article above this morning I got so angry that I’m really glad the parents involved live in England…because if they were in the US I’d be online right now looking for a number to call the local police wherever they lived to report these people for abusing their little boy. My boyfriend Justin gets a little embarrassed when I call the police, the Governor’s office, or Congress on people when they’re doing something terrible but I figure that somebody has to and I’m indeed somebody (as, incidentally, are YOU, too).

The child these people in the article are abusing is a boy — despite the fact the parents, two fools named Beck Laxton and Kieran Cooper, proudly hid his gender from the outside world for five years…by playing a weird guessing game with anyone who would ask “is your child a boy or a girl?” as some sort of sociological experiment. To throw people off, the mother admits to calling the boy “The Infant” until he was too old for her to get away with that anymore.

This is where I really want the British equivalents of Elliot Stabler and Olivia Benson to burst in, with Ice-T in tow, to start cracking some skulls and saving that little boy from his abusers.

The mother’s named Beck (but, not the singer “Beck”, who in a world of chimpanzees would be a monkey…she’s just a crazy person named “Beck”). She is very much a loser though (baby), and has maintained a website documenting the abuse of her son — I have no doubt this will serve as evidence someday, or at the very least be a treasure trove for the guy’s psychiatrist to mine when he’s spending his entire adult life in therapy asking why his mother raised him as a genderless “infant” until his first day of kindergarten.

These two Leftists have been dressing their son in girl’s clothes since he was born, taking pictures of him wearing sparkly pink swimsuits, and denying him any clothing that is “hyper-masculine” (you know, like tee shirts with pirates and superheroes and knights in shining armor on them…like little boys would be happy to wear). Instead, Beck and her idiot husband have been dressing their son up like Esther Williams.

Why aren’t these people in jail?

Seriously.

Is there no jail nearby?

I’ve noticed that Leftists are really big on emasculating boys, but I’ve never understood what that’s all about. I know they aren’t trying to make the boys gay, because the Left hates gays as much as it hates all minorities (while simultaneously finding them useful as identity voting blocs comprising the Democrat Party’s coalition). Loons like Beck and Kieran don’t seem interested in setting their son up to like other boys…but they want to make him as wimpy and fey as possible (so he’ll have the stuffing beat out of him by other boys when he goes to school).

That’s child abuse.

While required to send her son to kindergarten dressed in a boy’s uniform, Beck insists on forcing him to wear a pink blouse while all the other boys have white ones. But, this woman insists he start school dolled up like Molly Ringwald, so pretty in pink.

This is the sort of thing the Left’s magazines and papers here in Chicago celebrate as “forward thinking” and “progressive parenting”.

I call it child abuse.

Am I wrong?

Before we get to what you think — and I am dying to hear it — I want to repeat an anecdote from here in Boystown that sums up the mental illness of people like Beck and Kieran.

A year or two ago I opened Gay Chicago Magazine (now defunct) and read a profile they ran of a local “activist” who appeared to be a woman from the picture they used. Being Gay Chicago Magazine, I figured the woman was a lesbian and imagined being an “activist” meant she was unemployed and opinionated about something that got her negative attention. I was right about most of it, except that she didn’t consider herself a woman because she insisted that gender didn’t exist and she was instead just ‘queer”.

The article explained that this person had been born a woman and had lived her life until about age 15 as a straight female.

From 15-20 or so she decided she was a lesbian.

Then at 20 she woke up one day and decided she was a man trapped in a woman’s body and began living as a straight man, ultimately having a double mastectomy a few years later so she could more easily pass as male.

Around 24 or 25 this person decided “he” was now a gay male because he liked gay men better than hanging around straight men because gay men were more fun.

Three years or so of that, he decided that gay men weren’t fun anymore and he wished he was a woman again, so he let his hair grow long and started wearing women’s clothes again though he wanted to keep dating gay men — who now wanted nothing to do with “her”, since “she” was back to female-identifying again.

That brought things current to Gay Chicago’s profile, more or less, with the woman now a lesbian again (and possibly just restarting her cycle of gender confusion).

I distinctly remember reading that article thinking “this person should be seeing a whole staff of psychologists” because clearly she was disturbed to be putting herself through so much back and forth…but the writer who put this profile in Gay Chicago Magazine went on and on about how WONDERFUL and LIBERATING it was for this woman to be slipping in and out of gender roles and sexual identities like this.

I won’t mince words: the reason this woman did most of this back and forth, in my opinion, is because she got so much attention for doing it from the Left…because the more of a train wreck she makes her life the more likely she’ll get a big profile in a gay publication praising her for her “honesty” and “courage” in being “herself”.

Or is it himself?

Theirselves?

I wish I had saved that article or had written down that woman’s name because I’d love to interview her someday — though I can imagine it would end up being something like they do on The Daily Show when they get someone like this in front of a camera and ask them what’s wrong with them.

I’ve gone way out onto a tangent this morning, but I’m just so disgusted with the things “The Tolerant Left” does to mess up innocent people’s lives just to prove some point or create attractions for their political circus.
