Elon Musk triggers row after calling his trans daughter 'son suffering from mental illness'
India, Dec. 14 -- Tech billionaire Elon Musk has created furore on social media after he misgendered his trans daughter Vivian Jenna Wilson.
It all started with an X post from California Governor Gavin Newsom's press team about trans children. They commented under a post, "We're sorry your daughter hates you, Elon." This prompted a response from Musk, who owns X.
"I assume you're referring to my son, Xavier, who has a tragic mental illness caused by the evil woke mind virus you push on vulnerable children. I love Xavier very much and hope he recovers," he wrote adding, "My daughters are Azure, Exa (she goes by Y) and Arcadia, and they do indeed love me very much."
The post prompted mixed reactions. While many criticised the X profile for using Elon Musk's children for the jab, others slammed the billionaire for his remark on his daughter's trans identity.
