'Let Bird Kids Fly’: Therapist’s memes mocking adults enabling child transition go viral
Fox News
Family therapist Stephanie Winn is mocking those who advocate for the medicalization of transgender youth with a series of memes about kids who identify as birds.
The first meme of the series shows a young child wearing cardboard wings on his back and includes the text: "Cardboard wings are wings. Let bird kids fly." Winn jokingly advocates for adults to allow Bird Kids to attempt to fly with their make-shift wings and added the hashtags #CardboardWingsAreWings, #LetBirdKidsFly and #ProtectBirdKids.

"This idea that we should give in to a child's imagination and affirm their delusions and then empower them to do dangerous things — my aim is to poke holes in that," Winn told Fox News. "Of course, it's ridiculous to suggest that cardboard wings are real wings and that the proper thing to do is let children fly with those wings."
