[quote=Anonymous]Eh, I'm not super girly and never have been. My DD LOVES hot pink, princesses and most especially rainbows and unicorns. She will refuse to wear any neutral color (no black, navy or grey!). If anything, I think we've come really far in how well we let girls be whatever they want! For a bit, before the pink bug bit her, she wore a grey and orange coat. No one cared. I agree that I don't think we are nearly as accepting of boys doing that. My son had his toenails painted (blue, his request) and the number of comments about it really surprised me! He's 2! They were generally supportive like "oh that's cool you let him". Um what? I was painting his sister's nails and he asked and I don't get why your response to a kid would ever be anything but "sure what color?". But it clearly surprised people, even my liberal cohort.[/quote]
