We are raising feminist boys. Boys who believe that people are equal, regardless of their gender. Boys who respect themselves for who they are, whoever that may be. Boys who respect women as equals. Boys who believe that any person can do any job, play any sport, do any hobby, play with any toy they choose. Before I had children I hadnt had to think about this, but when our son was born my husband and I knew instantly that we would be raising our children with these values. What I didnt know was that this would be a challenge. ... I didnt think anyone would bat an eyelid when my 2 year old boy chose a witches outfit for Halloween, but even people who I thought were totally with me on the gender neutral toys debate raised their eyebrows when he put on a dress. They raised them even further when my husband wore a dress in solidarity. (Best. Dad. Ever.) - See more at: 2boys1mum.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/why-is-gender-neutral-parenting-so-hard.html?utm_content=bufferb5f7d&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=buffer&m=1#sthash.lgwUAMYe.dpuf
