    I did a child linguistic development unit a long, long time ago. I find it a bit difficult to believe a child of 2, who does not yet have the ability to express the concepts of ‘he/she’ can really contemplate their gender identity.

  2. Stonewall has completely lost the plot.

    It seems we went from “You’re a little boy who likes wearing dresses – there’s something wrong with you, take off that dress” to:

    “You’re a little boy who likes wearing dresses – great, you look fab” for only about five minutes before it became:

    “You’re a little boy who likes wearing dresses – there’s something wrong with you, you might really be a girl”

    The social conservatives and Stonewall both get it wrong. Diverse gender expression in kids is not a problem that needs to be solved. Just let them be.

  3. >Stonewall shared an article

    So we have an article about a what seems to be a retweet, no sources quoted, a series of opinions about the claim of a claim that an article exists, and then a sort of generic Stonewall bashing session.

    One of the better illustrations on how the modern media works, what with us commenting on it as well now.
