Jazz's parents don't seem so liberal to me. They were basically transing the gay away- like Susie Green and her husband, Jazz's parents were less than thrilled with a nonconventional boy. Extra mommie points and attention for that Munchausen's by Proxy goodness.

I understand what you are saying. This is also happening in the Middle East, where they are hardly liberal. There is so much hatred of homosexuality among religious groups that parents would rather have a trans girl than a gay boy. Indeed, the hatred of homosexuality in the world is a sickness unto itself. I'm gay, and it didn't make me a bad person. So Jazz's parent may not have been liberal in the sense of accepting their boy as gay -- but then, it does take a certain amount of liberalism to accept a trans child. Also, Jazz's mother started the campaign to convert her son to a girl when he was only three. She WANTED to have a trans child. There's no doubt in my mind that she was looking forward to the challenge of having a "special" child.

Yeah, I think it was more MBP than anything political, TBH.
