This actually is a fairly big deal to me, in that I have a daughter who is adamant that she must dress as a boy. She is regularly mistaken for a boy as a result. This is fine by me - I was like that myself. I get where she's coming from, and I am happy to "encourage my transgender child." But she has had enough trouble from other children for it without stupid adults suggesting she's somehow bringing down civilization as we know it. For crying out loud, what does it matter what clothes/adornments people choose to wear?
