Charlize Theron is raising a boy as if he were a girl

Charlize Theron publicly confirmed that her adopted eldest child, Jackson, who was assigned male at birth, IDENTIFIED as a girl from the age of THREE, when she clearly told her: “I’m not a boy!” From that moment on, the actress decided to raise her as such. Theron has explained that it is not her place to decide who her children will be, but rather to love them, support them, and ensure that they can grow up being authentic. For this reason, she has stressed the importance of using the correct pronouns for Jackson, asking for respect from both the media and the public, since “misinformation and misuse” of her identity have caused the “girl” pain. Her stance has been praised in LGBTQ+ communities, where activists and allies have commended the way Theron defends and supports her “daughter’s” identity. Thus, the actress has made it clear that her role as a mother is to stand by her side and allow her to fully live according to who she truly is.
