Their dad and mom, by and enormous, are supportive and push the youngsters to come back out, to decorate as the alternative gender in public and, within the case of 1 teenager, inject their daughter with testosterone.

The documentary was launched earlier this month, however one clip went viral over the weekend. In it, four-year-old Phoenix’ mom takes him to a Unitarian Church service, and brings him to the lectern to inform the congregation that he’s actually a woman. Phoenix modifications his thoughts about talking, saying he’s “shy,” however his mom interjects to inform the congregation that “Phoenix would really like you to know that she’s a woman and she or he prefers ‘She’ and ‘Her’ pronouns.”

The churchgoers reply with a chant of “Could you be effectively, secure, and complete. We honor you precisely as you might be.”

“In a wholesome and effectively adjusted society, this video would finish with the police breaking down the door and hauling each grownup away in handcuffs,” conservative pundit Matt Walsh wrote. “We don’t reside in such a society.”
