A Chicago woman lost custody of her daughter after the girl decided she was transgender and declared that she felt “unsafe” around her mother, who, despite being a self-described radical feminist and lifelong Democrat, doesn’t buy the notion that humans can choose their own gender.
When Jeannette Cooper and her ex-husband divorced in 2015, Cooper was granted custody of their then-12-year-old daughter, Sophia, for six days and seven nights a week. Cooper told Kelsey Bolar of the Independent Women’s Forum that “she and her daughter were extremely close.”
