A project more than a year in the making by American-Statesman journalists, the documentary “Existing as transgender in Texas,” spotlights the stories of nonbinary and transgender children as well as their families in a state that is weighing removing access to gender-affirming care for them.

"Self acceptance is the most beautiful thing anyone can be blessed with."
Good for you, so why are we expected to accept something you are not so your happiness trumps our discomfort?
So, that woman is doing drag, pretending to be a gay man in drag but is actually a woman? She is just dancing for money and bringing her child into it too. Child abuse. And how sad for those twins that the mother allowed for little boy to be lead down the hard road of transition because she wanted a daughter and had a son to spare. And Alicia is XY, a MALE, what they did to him was malpractice. The fencing biological male "trans" that wants to compete against females is unfair. Stay out of our statistics, competitions, grants, scholarships, restrooms, bathrooms, dorm-rooms, prisons, etc.
Intersex is an actual measurable medical condition. "Transgender" is not, it is a non-medical term and does not describe an actual medical or physiological condition…it is merely a subjective appropriation of male and female. There is no scientific definition of the thing.
GOOD! NOW START ARRESTING PARENTING, DOCTORS, AND ACTIVISTS!
GREAT job USA today , ❤️❤️👏👏
great documentary
This is disgusting and I consider a child abuse. I can see if you're 18 years old and still messed up then transition but for parents to do this so early an age I think it's sick.
Horrible.
It's like watching a horror movie with babies and children exposed to disgusting ugliness manifesting itself in a satanic way in their presence.
I agree, they should leave the intersex alone, the Lord made them for a reason to show the world that there are more then just two genders that exists in the world. They should be left alone and not cut up it should be left up to them to decide.
Drag persona? This is taught. Children at this age wouldn't be thinking sexually if adults weren't involved in their indoctrination.
I feel compassion for these confused children, however, in most cases it's the parents pushing this on their children. So sad to see children being groomed by so called, but less than sane parents. When adults have issues, so goes the children….
I wished the Lord would let people pick the gender that they want before they are born it would make it easier on everyone.
Listening to these parents is sickening. Can you say Munchausen by proxy!
It is child abuse to allow a child to mutilate their natural sexual function before they have a full understanding of the consequences of their decision. Kids should be left alone and allowed to go through puberty naturally then decide what they want to do for themselves with an ADULT MIND. There's no right or wrong way to be a boy or a girl. Tomboys DO exist and grow up to be wives and mothers, feminine boys DO exist and grow up to be husbands and fathers. Let kids be kids, and stop confusing them with this transgender bullshit
Yes there is something so very very wrong.
The lady who was born with both xy is speaking lies. They do and have done mutilation on kids. It's been filmed..
It should be illegal. You are hyper sexualizing children at a young age.
Anybody who believes in this ideology is criminally insane. It’s all about feedings and self perception.
It there choice at the end of the day. It doesn't effect anyone. Just get over it people. 🏳️🌈🌈⚧
Genital mutilation of children is what they advocate for. They are pure fetishists that want to force their lifestyle choices on others and the 99.9 percent of Americans reject the less than one percent of the population and rightfully so. This is why we need to bring back mental institutions
Don’t care=pass.
It's so heatbreaking how these families have been dehumanized. I remain hopeful America will recognize this as cruelty and move beyond this dark moment.
These are small children the parents are 100% to blame here and should have DFS at their door soon. I Feel bad for the young children with unstable parents
I Guess There's Alot of Money to be Made with Multiple Surgeries and a Life on Pharmaceuticals
The kids are not going to live healthy lives in all these hormones and meds. The parents are creepy…. The schools are cultist.
It's an insult that a woman at the TOP of her athletic abilities has to play a sickly man to "even the playing field". A man has to take hormones to weaken their natural body, they have to "be feminine"…. And then woman play them. Instead of all athletes at the TOP of their games, performing and playing against other top athletes.
GROOMING. Who cares if your gay, lesbian?? Not me! Do you! But it's big pharma has to help you with you "identity"…. SOMETHING IS WRONG
I want to see more male to female transgenders in the Cruiser and Heavy Weight divisions of boxing!!
Just normal people
Medically transitioning minors and nudging them into wanting it is child abuse. Indoctrination and IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE.
Modernity has frustrated natural selection
I was once, exactly once, at a truck stop in Texas taking a pee, when I saw this gem on the piss room wall of the Flying J: “liberalism is a mentle disorder” word for word, letter for letter, this couldn’t get better. Get it Texas 👍
California has infected texas… time to find another state.
Oh poor me! Pull your pants up and get a job!
9:00 Hell naugh! I understand if a kid feels this way from their prospective e but when the mother is influencing them towards this path, he’ll no!
Not news
If you have to leave your state for who you are, that’s not freedom.
I am Muslim my religious isn't allow all s we needs keeping family
Send Ukraine some ATACMS so they can win this war quicker please America. They are fighting for their lives. I know you guys have your problems too, but this is really urgent.
Isaiah 5 20
It's a mess out there….
What about what’s fair for bio women on that sport guess they don’t matter rt
Do whatever you want to do to your adult self. Leave kids alone. Schools and teachers are NOT co-parents. Indoctrination is evil.
This is insane.
Hey
