[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my spouse prohibited one of my kids from doing something solely due to gender and we let our kids of the other gender engage, I’d be making an 100% equalization policy in my house. If both sexes can’t do it, neither can. And I’d take earrings away from my girls. [/quote]

Why not get the girls buzz cuts? Why shave? Why not have your DD’s only wear knee-length shorts, and have your DS wear capris? Equality, right?[/quote]

NP.  If the girls want buzz cuts and knee length shorts, and DS wants capris I fall to see why any of this would be an issue?  Not even sure which gender you’re assuming should (or should not?) shave but if my boys want to grow moustaches more power to them, and anyone’s allowed to have hairy legs in my house if they want them.  I sure can’t be bothered to shave mine regularly.  But likewise razors will be available to anyone who wants silky smooth armpits.[/quote]

Because the kids we are discussing are 8 YO. There are (supposedly) people in their lives called PARENTS who give them guidance on things like this. [/quote]
