[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Sometimes people are born a girl but they feel in their heart that they are really a boy. That’s how Uncle Larlo feels, and so we are going to treat him like he is a boy because we love and care about him. Everyone deserves to be treated with kindness and respect, right?”[/quote] I love this sentiment, but I just don't know that my 4yo has any conception of what it is to be a boy other than to have a penis (can I say that on this board without it being deleted?). We have tried to avoid overly gendered toys, social norms, etc, so I can't think of other ways to describe to him the idea of what it is to feel like one gender or another. The social construct of gender is what really trips me up. [/quote]
