They start em early in California..... Proud parents from San Diego have shared
their story of having a transgender son who became a boy aged just 5-years-old. Jeff and Hillary Whittington presented a touching video showing little Ryland's female-to-male transition as they were honored at the 6th annual Harvey Milk Diversity Breakfast last Thursday. The stirring footage revealed how Ryland suffered severe hearing problems when she was just 12-months-old and was fitted with cochlear implants. "I am a boy," the long blonde haired toddler reportedly declared to her parents after the operation and learning to speak Despite her room being painted pink and being dressed in girly outfits, her parents said she preferred masculine toys and activities. Confused as to what to do, the Whittingtons believed it was a phase that would soon pass. But, on turning five, Ryland started concretely rejecting all things feminine. "When the family dies, I will cut my hair so I could be a boy," Ryland reportedly told her parents, later adding: "Why did God make me like this?" Jeff Whittington, a former firefighter- turned-real estate agent, and wife Hillary began researching the issue - and soon decided the answer was that their girl was transgender. Terrified to learn about the high suicide rate associated with transgender people who feel socially unaccepted, they decided to properly embrace Ryland's identity. "Ryland's gender identity was not caused by our parenting style, family structure or environmental factors," the couple stated in the 7-minute montage. They cut off their infant's long hair, bought new clothes and started referring to Ryland as a male. His room was also redecorated. The footage then showed Ryland playing soccer and baseball, wearing ties and dancing with a flower girl at a wedding reception. "Relative to the horrific things people have to endure with their children all over the world, this is nothing," his parents added. The video was played before the couple accepted the event's Inspiration Award, reports LGBT Weekly. A short-haired Ryland, dressed in a smart suit, also took to the stage to say: "My name is Ryland Michael Whittington. I am a transgender kid." http://m.nydailynews.com/news/national/san-diego-parents-reveal-story-transgender-daughter-boy-5-article-1.1811066 That kid is starting life behind the eight ball I guess I could say the PC thing.. but I won't... parents making such a serous life changing decision based on what a 5 year old says... the kid barely knows the alphabet.. and they do this?...I guess waiting until the kid was old enough to actually comprehend what they were saying was too much to ask? Many people will say they are good parents.... not me |

Shame for using the word 'deformity' when referring to transgenders. Their preferences simply do not match their physiognomy. So they try to get it right. No different than the gay community. Choices, people. |

I can see it now....An uncouth juicehead strolls into the ladie's locker room and boldly announces...."Hey girls, ya'll into fitness?! How 'bout trying to 'fitness" penis in your mouth?!"
Business being in the Ladies Locker-room! Simple! That being said, it IS Planet Fitness policy. I'd just exercise (no pun intended) some of that good 'ol American capitalism and go somewhere else. |

Choices, people. normal anatomy for a female is a vagina,, if you are born with a penis though you allegedly are a female,, you have a deformity its the very definition people with tails have 'normal' anatomy for monkeys, but its still a deformity for a person,,, |

I wish you knew what happened there. (case closed now?) ;) *you're amazing* *hug* |

Sorry but Planet Fitness is/was wrong dismissing the person in question,, it doesn't matter what gender or what anatomy the person has,, it should be about who is there tho get fit.
Isn't that the name Planet FITness ,, I think the person should be allowed back in and planet unfitness apologize publicly. |

Daniel Harrison: "I'm fine with equality, but I
would not feel comfortable with my wife changing alone in a locker room with a man, regardless of what gender he identifies with. The rights of one community should not encroach on the rights of another. They should include a transgender locker room." But what would the media and Social Justice Warriors have to complain about if such a common sense approach was taken? but what if the 'woman' with a penis isn't comfortable changing in front of a 'man' with a vagina? |
