Loudoun County Public Schools keeps four copies of an ideological book on gender identity for little children in its elementary school libraries, the Virginia school system confirmed Wednesday to The Daily Signal.
Written by “One Bad Mother” podcaster Theresa Thorn, the book “It Feels So Good to Be Yourself” describes the terms “sex assigned at birth,” “intersex,” “gender identity,” “gender expression,” “cisgender,” “transgender,” and “non-binary” to readers.
An Amazon description of the book says it is intended for children ages 4 to 8.
“It is my wish that this book helps children to better understand themselves and others,” writes Thorn in an author’s note. “This book is for trans kids, cis kids, non-binary kids, gender-fluid kids, gender-expansive kids, questioning kids, and all kids, everywhere.”
The book’s royalties go to the LGBTQ organization Gender Spectrum, according to Thorn’s husband, and it cites multiple radically liberal organizations as “helpful resources” for young readers, including the Human Rights Campaign, the Trans Youth Equality Foundation, and GLAAD, originally the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation. … (Excerpts from the Daily Signal)
