[quote=Anonymous]This is a situation where my values (who cares about gender norms . . . let people express themselves) and my biases (he'll draw negative attention) would clash. But I would fight really hard to live my values. I wouldn't have a problem with an 8 year old girl getting her ears pierced so I would let a son do so as well. Thankfully my spouse generally follows my lead when it comes to stuff like this. If I can make a persuasive argument he'll listen. If you're at a standstill, I'd at least advocate for magnetic earrings and setting an age at which you'll take him to get his ears pierced if he still wants them later.[/quote]
