Another bit on parenting and the construction of gender

Really, everything I worry about and object to can be boiled down to this:
I don’t have a problem with baby dolls or with vehicles, but I do have a problem with proscriptive identities.
It's the layers of assumptions, projections, and raised eyebrows. Give me a break. (But really, read the whole post too.)

So glad you visited, nice to meet you, because yep -- we all have to deal with this crazy nonsense. May as well learn to cope/resist a little together, no?
