I was wondering if anyone has tried this? It upset me a little bit that today my bf said letting a little boy wear a dress is "f'ed up". It actually kind of hurt me a little bit. I want my child to know that however they feel is okay. I don't want them to grow up confused with expectations that girls act one way and boys another. I want them to be who they are and not feel like they have to be ashamed of themselves. And I feel like pushing a certain gender on your child (i.e. if your little boy wants to play with barbies and you tell him that boys can't do that) then you're just teaching them "it's not okay to feel how you do or be what you are".

To clarify, no we don't have kids. But I feel like these things need to come out in the open if we even want to think about marriage or kids. Just looking for some other opinions if maybe I'm being too sensitive or reading into this too much.
