[quote=Anonymous] I agree with other pps here in that the trend now is to push 'transgender!!!' on kids who deviate in any way from gender norms. There is not much tolerance for a tomboy or girly guy these days! OP, I was a little girl, back in the day, who refused dresses, played with the male action figures of the day, was the first girl on the little league team (yeah I'm that old), ect...I'm not transgender, and I doubt your dd is either. She reminds me of me. As an adult, I still am not the most feminine person in the world, and I work in a male-dominated agency, in uniform-but I am happily married for 2 decades and am a mom! My advice to you is, to just not worry too much and dont push the girl stuff too hard. My mom still thinks I should 'wear heels and some makeup'.. uh no thanks :) As someone who was similar to your dd, I would not go down the transgender road. JMO.[/quote]
