These temporal pleasures, however, failed to deliver what…

Anderson, author of When Harry Became Sally, has said there’s no scientific evidence to suggest a boy can be trapped in a girls body, or vice versa. “What’s really going on here is that gender ideology is suggesting, based on sex stereo-types, that a girl who enjoys things that are stereo-typically ‘boyish’ is actually a boy trapped in a girls body.” “The response here is not to change children’s bodies, it’s to break down the sex stereotypes. That boys can enjoy doing things that are stereotypically ‘girly’ without therefore being girls.” WATCH:
