I feel so sad for this child.

Not one person interviewed had any redeeming qualities, apart from Angel's brother (who was the only one who displayed authentic human emotion or anything approximating empathy). The rest were weak, at best, and in thrall to a sociopath or perhaps, just exploiting what they could get from his proximity. Repulsive

Yes, I meant to except Angel's brother from my condemnation. The 2 women, Gittsie and Brooke were as bad as the men. "James St, James" was loathsome.

Any youtube link?

Anyway, I digress... Point is a) one or both of the kid's parents being a club kid sounds and an interesting and plausible theory, and b) cannot believe that little boy was interviewed by a convicted murderer

They're a bit too young, aren't they? My guess is that they're wannabies who idolized one of the most unpleasant club scenes in living memory and it's that desperation to be part of something that's motivating them to push their child into places where they themselves wouldn't be welcomed. It's pretty repulsive, and I hope at some point someone in social services sees past all the glitter to the child who's being exploited by his horrible famewhoring parents.

Desmond has appeared on God Morning America

This needs to be posted on the main boards. It's a scandal. That poor child.

I agree with you Terfing

Can someone post this on AIBU? I'm on my iPad and can't get the links up. We need to get the word out. This is child abuse.

I have a boy the same age, this is so awful:(

The problem is not the intentions of Desmond or Nemis or even their parents (although of course if their are nefarious reasons that's not acceptable) but of those who pay to see this kind of act.

Sure some may just love the liberation and non societal bend but many may be titivated by this and although it may not be the intention, it will be the result.

I don't think a boy dressing up like this and doing it at home or in front of family is inherently wrong if they feel comfortable, but to commercialise it seems so tacky. If it's truly about being themself it's surely enough to be accepted by family and friends?

I have trans friends but underage sexualisation of any gender identity is not acceptable.

I personally think although it may sound conspiracy theory esque that part of big business, government and aristocracy is being involved with paedophilic lifestyle of some sort, or at least accepting it.

kidi get my looks from the club kids of the 80s not appropriate
Dad how many 2 year olds watch Ru paul Not for 2 year olds

It is when you see red flags all over the place.

He seems like a really sweet kid. I'm so sad for him.
