Oh, Man! First of all, this is a Daily Mail story because it is so rare - a 52 year old man chooses to live as a six year old girl (and has found a supportive adoptive family). The story is not about his/her grievance about a slumber party, but about the challenges and struggles for the whole family as this person seeks his/her natural state. I don’t judge him as good or bad (the article does not speak about any financial responsibilities he may have to his/her own children).
Oh - and it’s in Toronto (my home town), where yes, we do let people figure out their own shit for themselves.
