9-Year-Old Girl Left Sobbing After Man Accuses Her Of Being Trans During Track Meet
A nine-year-old girl was publicly berated during a track and field competition in British Columbia, Canada, last week by a man who wrongly accused her of being transgender. “She was shaking and sobbing,” Heidi Star, the mother of the nine-year-old girl, told iNFOnews.ca on Monday. “All the kids that were there went ‘this is gross.
this is rude, why would he be doing this?'” The news outlet also reported that the man also accused a second nine-year-old girl of being a boy. “The other child he pointed out just ran away altogether,” iNFOnews.ca noted.
The man has now been banned from all school district properties and events, according to school superintendent Kevin Kaardal.
Star says her daughter was lined up for waiting for her turn during the shot put event with the man’s granddaughter standing behind her. “He stopped the entire event, declaring that my daughter was a boy,” Star posted on Facebook about the incident. “My daughter is a girl, was born female, and uses she/her pronouns.
