She even claimed to have been ‘working‘ in the field for 21 years, yet she didn’t become a Mermaids employee until 2016, so she must consider raising a trans child to be ‘work’.
Yes, odd.
SG in a 2018 interview:
"‘It explained why Jack’s favourite outfits were a pink tutu and a Snow White costume. Why he asked for Barbies, Polly Pockets and My Little Pony for Christmas, and why, when his Dad bought him Thomas the Tank Engine, toy cars and garages, he discarded them.
‘I jumped from fear to denial and told Jack it was fine to be a boy who liked girly things but that did not make him a girl. He was my first child and I just thought I had a very effeminate little boy who was gay.
‘This was 20 years ago — I knew nothing about transgender people then. For the next few years, although I tried to convince Jack that liking girls’ things did not make him a girl, he’d insist: “But Mummy, I am a girl.”
‘It caused massive rows with my then husband, who believed he needed to make Jack toughen up and be masculine. I remember how angry he was.’
Jackie was seven years old when Susie took her to the Tavistock Gender Identity Clinic in London, where, within a year, she was diagnosed with gender dysphoria (a condition where a person experiences distress because of the mismatch between their biological sex and their gender identity).
The clinic advised that while she should continue in her male persona publicly, inside the home she should wear whatever clothes she chose."
