Campaign site One Million Moms have taken aim at ABC Family’s new transgender docu-drama Becoming Us and have urged David’s Bridal Inc. to pull sponsorship from the show.
A not-so-subtle bid to force the show’s cancellation.
Lucifer Cancellation Demanded By One Million Moms
While also hitting at the channel’s programming in general, One Million Moms criticize Becoming Us for “attempting to normalize the transgender lifestyle” with the view that it’s “confusing” for the family and “young viewers”. The campaign reads:
ABC Family Channel’s lineup already includes several anti-family programs, and that list continues to grow. The newest docu-series “Becoming Us” began airing Monday, June 8, at 9:00 pm ET/8:00 pm CT. The previews airing earlier include the tagline “genders may bend, but family never breaks.” This reality show is about a son’s journey as he struggles with his parents’ divorce and his father’s transition to living as a woman. The boy’s girlfriend also happens to have a father who is transgender and transforming into a woman.
The show is attempting to normalize the transgender lifestyle and make it appear OK while targeting the young audience watching a supposedly family channel. Many families have already discovered that ABC Family is anything but family-friendly. But because “family” is part of the network’s name, we thought a warning should still be sent out for anyone who continues to watch the channel.

I support the opposition to this program. It’s ridiculous to create to create a weekly story about
behaviors that represent a minuscule portion of the population. Especially when it’s certain that
the reason for this show’s existence is to make a political argument. God knows there are enough
boring and pointless shows created annually in Hollywood. Adding one that is meant to mainstream
a recognized psychiatric disordered that is listed in the ICD-9 as Gender Dysmorphia Disease.
It always amazes me how hypocritical liberals can be. They’ll trot out the sick, and unhappy to make
a point that furthers their efforts at brain-washing the under-informed in this country.
Trans-sexuals have a disorder that requires treatment, not a TV series.
