Hmm. Daughter says she gets asked if she thinks she's a boy coz she prefers black trousers to kilt at school which is unusual.

Probably it doesn't but I worry abt the hypersensitivity to gender identification. Adolescents have enough to feel self-conscious about.
-
Children seem very accepting of gender id changes. Adults seem to find it harder (like lots of prejudices I guess).
-
Not at all. "Are you trying to be a boy?" "Where's your tie?!" "Should we call you 'Luke.' Cos she wears (girls) trousers.
-
Sounds unkind and if it makes her feel at all uncomfortable I would suspect the sch would want to know.
-
She can deal with it. School is nuts abt stuff like this.
-
OK. What do you mean nuts? Over-sensitive or disinterested?
-
Over-sensitive. Think kids can't cope with anything.
-
Ah OK. Wasn't sure.
