46 year old trans woman identifies as 6 year old

    Stefonkee Wolschtt is a 46 year old trans woman from Canada, whose coming out as trans meant leaving her wife and 7 children.

    What is strange about her case is that Stefonkee now lives with adoptive parents as a 6 year old girl.

    “I can’t deny I was married. I can’t deny I have children. But I’ve moved forward now and I’ve gone back to being a child. I don't want to be an adult right now and I just live my life like I couldn't when I was in school...

    I have an adoptive mummy and daddy who are totally comfortable with me being a little girl and their girl and grandchildren are totally supportive. In fact, a year ago I was 8 and their youngest granddaughter was 7, and she said to me

    'I want you to be the little sister. So I'll be 9'.

    I said, 'Well, I don't mind going to 6'.

    So I've been 6 ever since. But we have a great time. And we colour, we do kid's stuff. It's called Play Therapy. No medication. No suicide thoughts, and I just get to play.”

    Can anyone defend this woman's decision to live her life as a 6 year old girl? I do not see how an acceptance of a person being trans should extend to an acceptance of her pretending to be 40 years younger than she actually is (and that is what this is... pretending, as demonstrated by the arbitrariness of her 'switching' her age from 8 to 6).

    Stories like these do not lead to more acceptance for the trans community among the general public. They are atrocious PR.
