Mario Lopez apologizes for telling conservative commentator that it's 'dangerous' and 'alarming' for parents to honor the wishes of young children who identify with a gender other than the one assigned at birth.
Mario Lopez apologized Wednesday for telling conservative commentator Candace Owens that it's"dangerous" and"alarming" for parents to honor the wishes of young children who identify with a gender other than the one assigned at birth.
"I have been and always will be an ardent supporter of the LGBTQ community, and I am going to use this opportunity to better educate myself. Moving forward I will be more informed and thoughtful," Lopez said. Owens asked Lopez about"weird trends" in Hollywood and mentioned that Charlize Theron recently said her 7-year-old, Jackson, did not identify as a boy. Owens described as a"new Hollywood mentality" such celebrity parents who believe their kids have the"mental authority" to choose a gender.
