Mario Lopez said he thinks it’s “dangerous” for parents to allow 3-year-olds to make major life decisions about their gender and sexuality
Mario Lopez found himself awash in support from conservatives and catching flack from liberals Wednesday after saying he thinks it’s “dangerous” for parents to allow 3-year-olds to make major life decisions about their gender and sexuality.The “Extra” TV host and former “Saved by the Bell” actor spoke with interviewer-activist Candace Owens more than a month ago on her series for Prager University, the nonprofit founded by talk-radio host Dennis Prager to promote conservative viewpoints.
“But at the same time, my God, if you’re 3 years old and you’re saying you’re feeling a certain way or you think you’re a boy or a girl, whatever the case may be, I just think it’s dangerous as a parent to make that determination then: ‘OK, well then, you’re gonna be a boy.’ Or a girl, whatever the case may be. And it’s sort of alarming and, my gosh, you just think of the repercussions later on.
“I think the formative years is when you start having those discussions and really start making those declarations. It’s way too young for some of these other — I just personally think it’s way too young,” Lopez said.
