“Roseanne” Reboot Promoting Trans Kids

One of my least favorite shows from the ’90’s is being revived with a Roseanne reboot set to premiere in March. The reasons why I didn’t enjoy it are many, but mainly because I found it very coarse and unpleasant viewing, with one controversial issue after another being pushed needlessly.

Sure enough, they’re doing it again with the new show by creating a Connor grandchild that is trans gender (apparent in the above photo). According to a Kveller article:

“Darlene and David’s 9-year-old non-binary son, Mark, is played by Ames McNamara…Mark wears girls’ clothes…in order to start a dialogue around what being gender non-conforming is, according to writer and star Sara Gilbert.”

I am not a bigot and I respect all people, but I truly do not believe a 9-year-old little child can be transgendered, gender non-conforming, or whatever it’s being called this week. Most kids who are confused about this issue eventually grow out of it—up to 95%, according to numerous studies.

Encouraging a young boy to dress and act like a girl is mind-boggling. Some extremists want to push it even further, by introducing opposite hormones, hormone-blockers, and other types of medication to babies that are still growing! Talk about a very  dangerous experiment for society. We have no idea what will happen to their brains in 10, 20, 50 years after the treatment. Also, let’s not forget many folks who have transitioned are now going back to their original gender—by their own choosing.

If someone over 18 want to change genders, they are legally able to make the decision. Children are a totally different matter. By showing it on national TV and pretending it’s a new type of acceptable behavior, is not only inappropriate, it’s normalizing a lunatic fringe.

Young boys and young girls should not have their childhood innocence disrupted in such an unnecessary way. Can’t we let kids be kids and stop embracing such scary agendas? Tolerance is a good thing, but it does have limitations. Respect for all, always, but let’s not pretend insanity is healthy.

    Sara Gilbert is a lesbian. Roseanne claims she can remember being molested at 6 months old. Nobody on that show has any concept of normal.

      Gay and transsexual are not the same thing from what I’ve read/heard. I do recall Roseanne talking about abuse, not sure how young she was. I doubt anyone can remember being 6 months old???

      I do consider it insane to allow a 9-year-old to choose a different gender. We don’t allow ones that young to drive, drink, vote, etc. for good reason. They aren’t capable of those types of decisions yet.

    Consider the source – publicity whores looking for ratings. I wouldn’t waste a minute trying rationalize what hollywood puts out.

    “Dan” died of a heart attack is how they ended the show, I dont see how they get by with that one. I would now and again watch the show as it came on right after the news, and I wouldnt change the channel, also one of the actors Tom Arnold and Roseanne when they were married were going to be moving back to their home state which never did happen.
    Anyway… I dont think I will be watching the new show unless its entirely not on purpose. It just sounds dumb, and there are too many silly things. Too many questions and just all around stuff that makes no sense..

      The real saga of Tom and Roseanne was very entertaining, much more than the show! The way those two would fight, omg. As for the character death, that’s gonna be tough. Dream sequence maybe like “Dallas” did perhaps?

    Personally I find it new and interesting. I always loved Roseanne and her groundbreaking story lines. To each his own I guess.

    Wow! They are going to be Trump supporters supposedly so that will be tough to stomach but I am trying to keep an open mind and watch the show before I decide. It does make sense for the characters, to support 45 but here’s hoping Darlene & Jackie will balance out Dan & Roseanne’s viewpoint.
