Re: Mom Paints Boy's Toenails Pink

We have some Burmese families that attend our church, and their kids routinely wear nail polish--boys included. Regardless of color. (I've seen red and pink, and also tennis shoes on the boys that have pink trim--and I realize this is somewhat a cultural divide.) I think too much is being read into the ad. Some mothers wouldn't think twice about painting their kids' toenails - boy or girl.

Re: Mom Paints Boy's Toenails Pink

Call me old fashioned, I would not condone painting a boy's toenails pink. There, I said it.

No way to explain away dressing boys up in girls clothes or painting they nails. Where's the husbands at?

TS - my son has put on my clothes before. That doesn't make him gay, and it also doesn't mean I should overreact and act like he's done something awful. It's childish behavior; not sexual behavior. Only misinformed adults would interpret that as having real meaning.
