Hmm so being a girl is literally just shoes, makeup and purses? Well fuck me I'm a damn man baby!

This is so backward and yet it gets labelled progressive.

I never acted girly or hardly ever and I love being a woman. I can pick any appearance or interest I want.

Freedom.

If adults didn't shove kids like this into the media spotlight, they would just be little boys playing dress-up.

I also don't know any parent of an actual female child who lets her out of the house wearing makeup unless it's Halloween, she is performing in a dance recital, or is appearing at some other venue where the makeup is part of her costume. Makeup is for girls who are at least in middle school, not for children. Ditto for all these trans kids with dyed pink hair.

In the car parade pic, the little boy is wearing cat ears.

Little kids like this boy might just be left to play if they didn't have adults to tell them they're trans. Couldn't have that, could we.

I don't understand how he gets away with this stuff. Drawn by the smell of perfume, I had a look inside my mother's make up drawer when I was around 6 years old. I didn't put anything on, but I did play with the brushes. I got in trouble for going through her things. I can't imagine going around grabbing other people's make up to use for myself. Boundaries.

With a child this young, this entire thing is being driven by the attention-seeking mom FaceTuning makeup selfies for her boy. No way this tiny child learned about the weird TIM obsession with cat girls/cat ears on his own or independently. Poor kid.

I find it hilarious that he wants to be a police officer when he grows up because that's what all little boys want to be, along with firefighter and doctor. Whereas girls are socialized to want to be a teacher or nurse.
