Dad Wins Custody Of Four-Year-Old Son In Legal Battle With Mom Who Wanted To Raise Him Nonbinary

A single dad has obtained full custody of his four-year-old son after alleging that his ex-girlfriend and the mother of his boy wanted to raise him as a nonbinary child. The case has become popularized among right-wing movements in the USA, where conservative influencers have been trying to discredit inclusivity and visibility for marginalized communities.

Harrison Tinsley, from California, USA, reached a settlement granting him full custody of Sawyer, his son, after what he alleged to be a mysterious “incident”.

“I know he’s a boy,” Harrison told the Daily Signal on July 30. “He wants to be a boy. He adamantly expresses that. If you say anything to the contrary, he gets very upset, and it’s just insane that people, any person, would push this ideology onto a child, as opposed to just [allowing them to] be happy with who they are.”
