7-year-old trans child wins LA Pride Parade with fierce strut in heels

7-year-old trans child Milan Tyler won the Los Angeles Pride Parade with a fierce strut in heels on the streets of West Hollywood, California, on June 10. Thousands cheered on participants at this year’s parade for LGBT Pride Month in June, and Tyler received some of the biggest support. “I’m not deciding what my kid wants to wear and how to behave when it comes to the things he likes,” his mother Maggi said. Tyler was born Ryder but recently asked to be called Milan instead. His mother and sister London were asked to attend the parade by Brits in LA co-founder Craig Robert Young. In the background, an open-top London bus can be seen as part of the British consulate’s parade entry. The British Consulate has remained the only foreign consulate to support gay pride in LA, according to the filmer.
