Party of 5: Girly boys and boyish girls. Puh-leeze.

Wednesday, April 13, 2011

I'm sure you've all seen this by now, it's the JCrew ad that's causing such a stink. Here's the page from the most recent catalog:

Some are saying this is creating gender confusion.

If that's the case, I'm proudly raising my two girls to be confused that maybe they are boys by allowing them the following activities. Puh-leeze.

Please just let kids be kids and let them play.

I love that picture of the little boy getting his toes painted. Every little boy I know has had his toes painted at some time or another.

Jaden's favorite color is pink, and he'll proudly tell you so. I can pretty much pass down most of Joelle's toys to the boys. So ya...let kids be kids.

I agree. Everyone worries if girls are pigeon-holed into roles but no one ever seems concerned that people freak out over boys playing with dolls. Ridiculous.
