3 yr old Son dressing up in girls costume

[anonymous-user]

So a very young kid likes wearing girls clothes. Is that really a problem?

If that's the case then it's not something you should let go.

Cant you get him infront of some move like Ironman or maybe the incredibles then buy him one of those outfits?

Didn't sound that way to me. She identified a character from a story which the kid liked and allows him to play in a manner he enjoys.
He's three. It's make believe and all good imagination development.

Far too many uptight types on here.

No, he's 3. He sees something and says he wants it. She doesn't say no but buys him it regardless. There are times when you should just say no IMO.

BTW,he has a knights outfit, Toy Story Woody outfit (which is gay in itself!), Batman, Skeleton, Power Rangers, Ninja turtle etc etc but the dress seems to be weapon of choice

As for the dress, he'll probably grow out of it.

"Oh no, it got lost in the wash!"

Hmmm...what've we got here. Bigotry, sexism, homophobia all wrapped up nicely into a macho thread.

Great work people. Great work

As for the kid, fair play to him, sounds like he's having a blast and doesnt care what other people think.

Whilst as a father I wouldn't particularly like it either, it doesn't really mean anything.

However encouraging a boy to dress as Rapunzel for fun isn't really the most appropriate thing, in my opinion.

A very good friend of mine did the same as a child though and laughs about it now. He isn't a tranny or anything.

I know a tranny who loved action man as a child!

You could solve this quite easily by throwing the costume in the bin and telling the boy to stop playing the fool.

And probably still does

HOLY fk!!

I was going to say that part of the problem is that my OH best mate also has a similar aged daughter. So trawling through her FB feed for a photo I can see the problem has gone beyond his own wardrobe!!

I've cropped his head off for privacy but rest unsured this is my son...

Funny someone suggested football kits to butch him up. Probably the girliest sport going.

Oh ok warrior.

You ever seen girls football? They instantly look butch for some reason.

You're a never ending barrel of laughs you are. It's a three year old child - good luck with your stern reasoning.

Really? Homophobia? He's 3 for fks sake. 3. NOTHING about a 3 year old is sexual.


Full of bloody Savilles, this thread.

I suspect that 99% of the replies are tongue in cheak, as mine is...

The other 1% are made by gays in deinal...

My advice is take pictures for future blackmailing if he trys to put you in a home or something.

[Mr Gearchange]

Oi oi Roberto.
My lad used to do this. Mrs thought it hilarious - I didn't. We had arguments around it.

He grew out of it before 5 years old.

Don't worry

he's a boy, so it's a boy's frock

[Mr Trophy]

OP, I would be the same as you, however, I would be sitting down Miss T and saying, this is not happening under any circumstances. Whilst I appreciate he's 3, it's still a no IMO of course.
