Actor Kevin Sorbo, after promoting a children’s book by lashing out at gender-affirming care for minors, has denied the new release is “anti-lgbtq,” saying a blogger who posted a link to an interview with him “has no clue what he’s talking about.”
Sorbo said in a story published Monday by The Christian Post that his children’s book, “The Test of Lionhood,” is about “letting boys become boys to hopefully become men and strong men, strong providers for families as they grow up.”
But the “Hercules: The Legendary Journeys” star also quickly took aim at gender-affirming care for minors in the interview, comparing it to “these transgenders going in and racing against women in sports now, boxing matches.”
“It’s just crazy to me,” he added.
“You know what?” Sorbo continued. “I’m all for [anyone] wanting to become transgender [as an adult]. I’m not bashing that world. I’ve been in Hollywood for 40 years.

SEE2023 Grammy predictions: Album of the Year
For most of Grammy history there were five nomination slots in this category. From 2019 to 2021, it was expanded to eight nominees, as were Record of the Year, Album of the Year, and Best New Artist.

After prolonged controversy over the voting system, the Grammys eliminated nomination review committees in almost all categories.
