“Look, I’m never one to tell anyone how to parent their kids, obviously, and I think if you come from a place of love, you really can’t go wrong. But at the same time, my God, if you’re three years old, and you’re saying you’re feeling a certain way, or you think you’re a boy or a girl...

among trans and nonbinary teens. With more than half of transgender male teens and nearly 30 percent of trans female teens saying they’d attempted suicide in their lives, the Human Rights Campaign has noted: “It is vital to make home a safe and affirming space for all identities.” But Lopez also betrayed his lack of knowledge of the issue when he told Owens: “When you’re a kid... you don’t know anything about sexuality yet. You’re just a kid.” Here, Lopez misses the crux of what it means to be trans. It’s a common misunderstanding, but it’s about gender identity, not sexuality; who you are, not who you are attracted to.
