  1. @wesatdown I'm in the early stages... but I'm concentrating on the long game!
  2. @wesatdown Nope, just raising a child! @Keris
  3. @keris Toys are equally unhelpful. (Which might be where your conversation started...)
  4. @keris I do like how in Guess how much I Love you that it *isn't* a mother/daughter dynamic. Feels like a choice not an assumption.
  5. @keris I am now. I realised the other day that I assume all her toys are male unless they have eyelashes. That's changing.
  6. RT @booktrust: Top tip 2: treat your covering letter to agents as a cross between a book blurb and a job application #howtogetpublished
  7. @keris This book (?) sounds v interesting. Did you ever see the article in Grazia about woman who refused to tell her child its gender?
  8. @keris Haven't seen Umizoomi - sounds like I'd better not! Want to teach Catnipper the only boys can do that she can't is wee standing up.
  9. @keris If they're anthropomorphic animals who rarely refer to each other as he & she isn't the way I frame it what will dictate the effect?
  10. @keris Yes... I'm reflecting on that right now, actually! I'm hoping the Catnipper doesn't notice the gender bias.
  11. @mattlibrarian @Keris @sisterspooky Erm...in the Octonauts, Tweak the Texan Rabbit is a kick-ass engineer (but ratios of boy:girl not great)
  12. @lindseyfraser It's a bit more vague than that - I'm just looking for men/boys other people would rate as attractive. Variety is key!
  13. @serendipity_viv I'm researching into the history of the male aesthetic and need a spectrum of contemporary tastes.
  14. @bookangel_emma Excellent calls all of them!
  15. @serendipity_viv It's for my aesthetics assignment.
  16. @serendipity_viv @carlybennett Very innocent research. Promise, miss.
  17. @bookangel_emma someone I can google image search...
  18. @splendibird Ha! I may use that quote - genius.
  19. @carlybennett Love this post! Thank you.
  20. @bookangel_emma Then help me out... name a hot boy!
