Dee Snider, lead singer of the ’80s hair band Twisted Sister, publicly backed KISS rocker Paul Stanley’s stance against transitioning minors. As Breitbart News reported, Paul Stanley took to social media over the weekend and called the transitioning of minors a “sad and dangerous fad.”
“There is a BIG difference between teaching acceptance and normalizing and even encouraging participation in a lifestyle that confuses young children into questioning their sexual identification as though some sort of game and then parents in some cases allow it,” he wrote in a post titled, “My Thoughts On What I’m Seeing.”

Dee Snider, who sometimes incorporated drag into his rock act, backed Paul Stanley’s stance and even shared his post.
“You know what? There was a time where I “felt pretty” too. Glad my parents didn’t jump to any rash conclusions! Well said,” tweeted Snider.
Dee later clarified his position after some initial backlash, scolding both the left and the right for jumping to conclusions and that the kid should “figure it out.”
“Dee, PLEASE, PLEASE DON’T fall for the bullshit being spun by the Right. This is no fetish, it’s not ‘confusion,’ and it’s been noted for thousands of years though only seriously studied in the past 100,” said one user.
“Parents need to be less reactionary; Right and Left. No need to steer the child in either direction. Let the kid figure it out for themselves knowing their family is supportive. I had a vet/cop hardass dad who, while he shook his head A LOT…let me do my thing,” responded Snider.

I’m not, Elle. Parents need to be less reactionary; Right and Left. No need to steer the child in either direction. Let the kid figure it out for themselves knowing their family is supportive.

Dee Snider can hardly be called a friend of the right, given that he recently gave gun control pushers the rights to use his hit song “We’re Not Gonna Take It” when pushing gun control measures after previously scolding “MAGAT fascists” for incorporating his song.
“ATTENTION QANON, MAGAT FASCISTS: Every time you sing ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’ remember it was written by a cross-dressing, libtard, tree hugging half-Jew who HATES everything you stand for. It was you and people like you that inspired every angry word of that song! SO FUCK OFF!” he tweeted last year.

Snider also denounced supporters of Republican Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake as “fascist morons” when a Twitter account promoting her displayed lyrics to his beloved song.
“HEY IDIOTS! READ THE 1ST LINE: “We’ve got the right to CHOOSE!” This is a PRO-CHOICE anthem you or co-opting. It was NEVER intended for you fascist morons! As the songwriter & singer I DENOUNCE EVERYTHING @KariLake STANDS FOR! Write your own damn song!” he tweeted.
