[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, your kid doesn't sound trans to me - at least not right now. Trans kids express actual dysphoria about their sex - they insist that they are actually the opposite gender, they talk about wanting to have different genitalia, they express wanting to be the opposite gender when they grow up. It doesn't sound like that is your kid, and I think we actually reinforce sexist stereotypes when we give the impression that because a kid likes "girl things" they must be a girl. Relax for now and support your kid. [/quote]

If anything OP's kid sounds gender non-conforming. Which is different than transgender. OP did say "gender non-conforming" in title.

I agree - everyone should drop the "girl things" and "boys things" in general.

Can’t a young boy like sparkly stuff without being labeled gender-nonconforming? Liking something doesn’t have to mean something about identity! It just means he likes it. [/quote]

My Hispanic DD is obsessed with Russian dolls.

Maybe she is ethnic-nonconforming?[/quote]
