Trans TikTok star Jesse Sullivan claims nurse misgendered him

Trans TikTok star Jesse Sullivan has claimed that a nurse misgendered him and questioned whether he was the father of his new-born twins.

Too Hot to Handle star Sullivan and YouTuber Francesca Farago announced the birth of their twins, a boy and a girl, on 11 November, naming them Poetry Lucia and Locket Romance. 

However, Sullivan, who is already a dad to non-binary teenager Arlo, has claimed that during the birth a nurse misgendered him and questioned whether he was the father. 

Taking to TikTok, Sullivan posted his experience at the Los Angeles hospital as a story time. He said the nurse called him ma’am. 

@pinknews Trans star Jesse Sullivan opened up about a recent trip to the hospital which left him feeling like “a freak.” He explained how he was misgenderes by a nurse. And questioned if he was the biological father to the twin babies he recently welcomed to the world, with wife Francesca Farago. #Transgender #BabyTok #QueerNews ♬ Natural Emotions – Muspace Lofi

‘This is unbelievable’

“You are discriminating against me, you misgendered me,” he wrote. “I was like in all my years of being who I am, I’ve had a ton of people treat me bad but this is unbelievable.” 

He added that he replied: “Yes, I am the father” to which she responded, “the biological father?” 

Adding that the incident made him feel like “a freak”, he said, he’d had to admit: “Technically, no.”

Sullivan went on to say that the nurse shouldn’t have made such a big deal out of it because: “IVF is so common.”

The pair revealed  in April that they were expecting their first child together after the heartbreak of a failed previous IVF attempt. Farago later announced that she and Sullivan were expecting twins, after appearing to predict it.
