How a Canadian Boy's Sexual Orientation Got Mixed Up

This story is culled from CBC Canada's website

A Canadian Woman who dresses her son like a girl, recalled walking out of the court room in shock after a judge ordered her 4-year-old son not be allowed to wear feminine clothing in public.

The Woman recounted that her young son, who is now 5, first started telling her he was a girl. Over time he became more insistent, introducing himself as a girl to others, and when she'd say things like "you're such a good boy" he would act out in frustration and anger.

At age 4, just out of the blues on a fateful day the boy posed her a question, "Mom, at what age did your penis fall off?" A few days later she says he woke up in the middle of the night telling her he was going to cut off his penis.

The Woman says she doesn't know if her child is just curious, or is transgender, but she says it doesn't matter to her. She says what does matter is that the courts respect the right to one's gender expression (that being a 5-year-old boy's!).

The child's father who is separated from her but shares custody on learning of this served her with papers seeking primary custody, blaming her for the child's gender confusion and anxiety.

The two were in a family court in Medicine Hat, Canada in December, 2015, the judge, Judge D.G. Redman kept the Woman as primary caregiver, but in his interim order, said the child will not be permitted to wear clearly female clothes in public, but if he chooses, he could do so in private. 

Then earlier this year in February the case went before Judge F.C. Fisher and in his interim order, he again stated the clothing restriction and granted primary custody to the father. The Woman was given limited access.

She plans to launch a human rights complaint against the two judges. And continue to fight to regain primary custody.

"I'm not going to hide under a rock and just give up, this is still a big fight." She said.
