Colin Mochrie From ‘Whose Line Is It Anyway?’ Shuts Down The Haters That Attacked His Daughter On Her Birthday

A lot of kids cringe in mild shame when their parents post on social media. But not Colin Mochrie’s daughter Kinley Mochrie. Ever since the transgender woman came out to her father in April 2016, he was nothing but supportive. Even if it means responding to nasty internet trolls.

“Happy birthday to my lovely Daughter,” Colin Mochrie, a symbol of the popular improvisational comedy television show Whose Line Is It Anyway? wrote. “28 years old and everything we’ve ever hoped for in a child.”

After people tried to bring him down about his transgender kid, Colin crafted another message. Only this one was a little more savage. And by a little, I mean they probably had to call the fire department after a burn like this.

But before you scroll down to check it out, you have to understand where Colin is coming from. “You go through this thing ‘now my child has changed gender from male to female, does that mean that previous child is now gone?'” he told CBC a while back. “It’s the same kid [with a] different coat on.”

Kinley said she never doubted her parents’ understanding during her transition. “It took some time, but I knew that support and acceptance were on the other side,” she said. “I was not worried about sex discrimination for a second.”

Collin Mochrie recently congratulated his daughter on her 28th birthday with a sweet message

Colin has been vocal about this subject in the past too

And most people support the beautiful bond this family share

The one who says it's against nature and against God, doesn't realise it's nature and God who made her this way.

The ones who argue that something is god's will do not realise the paradox they create in their blasphemous approach to claim to know what god's will is.

As of yesterday, my mom just accepted me as bi and it made all the difference. We've been fighting over this for years and she finally said "It's okay to date whoever you want to date... We just want you to be happy" and I have never been happier in my life

That's awesome. There's a wonderful group on FB called Stand-In Mom's and Dad's. It's a group for people this parents have disowned (or just generally are miserable tw*ts to them) over their sexuality so they can find understanding and accepting surrogates who would be happy to stand up at a wedding or cheer at a graduation. I highly recommend it to anyone who needs our is willing to provide a loving and accepting embrace in their lives.

There is an amazing group on FB called Stand In Moms and Dads. It's a group for people who are not as fortunate as this woman, people whose parents have disowned them or who simply take great pleasure in insulting and deriding them whenever possible for being LGBTQ. It's half people who need or want a caring, accepting person to give them away at a wedding, cheer for them during a graduation, or just go get coffee and get advice/ taking about life without their identity and sexual preference being vilified or ignored. The other half are people who happily want to be that person for someone that has been turned away by blood relations. There's a database of those who are offering to stand in, organized by country, state, and city. If anyone here can afford the time or needs this, please go check it out.
