Elon Musk Attacks Reported Ruling on Preteen's Gender-Affirming Care
Twitter, owner's comment came after Jeff Younger wrote on the platform last week that he had "lost all parental rights to my sons" after a ruling by Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mark Juhas.Younger claimed the ruling gave his ex-wife, Anne Georgulas, the "authority to castrate my son." He wrote: "Let my story be a cautionary one for young men.
Fathers have no rights to their children. Do not enter the family law system."Newsweek has not yet viewed the ruling and has contacted Younger for comment via email.
An attorney for Georgulas has also been contacted via email.Chemical castration, or medical castration, involves the use of drugs to stop sex hormone production.
Experts have said that gender-affirming care for a child would not involve medical intervention until they at least reach puberty.Younger told the Washington Examiner that he intends to appeal the court decision."This is psychotic," Musk wrote on X, in a response to a repost of a MailOnline article about the ruling.Musk, who has a transgender daughter, said in late 2020 that he "absolutely supports trans," but has repeatedly criticized gender pronouns.He has previously said that his daughter's transition drove his shift to the political right.
