Long time lurker, first time poster!
Before I begin, let me just say that I am a huge advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and I think that it is incredible that more and more children now have the tools/vocabulary to express their gender identity and gender fluidity from a young age if they wish. In saying that, I believe that transgender children MUST be protected at all costs provided increasing transphobia in public domain and media.
My brother and I have the same age gap as E1 and E2. Being his bossy big sister, I got the final say in what films we watched, the games we played and what we were doing around the house etc. My brother would play with baby dolls, plait my hair, dressed up as disney princesses and would ask for "girl" toys for christmas and birthdays and did makeovers on each other. This was how we played with one another up until he was about 8/9 years old! My brother is now in his mid 20's and is a cisgendered, straight and very masculine man who loves football, cars and the pub
He only played/dressed girly because he was a child with a close in age and older sister who loved girly things. Who does this remind you off!
This was more than 20 years ago, so boys wearing disney princess dresses and playing with barbies was not the most accepted thing. My dad would tut and roll his eyes and try and discourage him so I could not imagine how he would have reacted if my parents constantly had a camera in his face, giving him favouritism and telling him that everyone on the internet loved him for dressing as a girl. My brother was allowed to privately and SAFETLY play pretend girlish/feminine games and then move on from it when he became older.
If E2 is a transgendered child then I hope he one day gets the support he needs. I personally think that if E2 has tried to articulate that he is transgender and would like to transition at some stage when he is older, Anna and Johnathon are even more disgusting for constantly plastering him all over the internet in dresses and swimsuits when he cannot give informed consent for that content to be uploaded. He needs to be protected not only from predators but those who are dangerous towards and intolerant of transgender people. If Anna and Jono actually committed themselves to researching and educating themselves on these issues (which they very obviously haven't!) they would know that transgender people and children are more subject to mental illness and things like being physically and verbally attacked etc. He needs to explore this journey privately and safely away from the criticism and hatred of LGBT people as he is only a small child. Perhaps if he was older teenager etc then I would not be so critical, but he is so so young. I really wish he was more protected
