Gender norming pressure already? My pink adoring boy exclaims, "NO! I can't use the pink crayon! That's pretty, I HATE PRETTY!" I pick my jaw off the floor and inquire more. "Mom, that's a girl color! Boys have a special gas in their body that makes them not like pink." I tried to challenge this with, "well maybe weak boys don't think they can like pink but strong boys can." Without skipping a beat, he saw right through me. "Mom, I'm STRONG AND I DON'T like pink now." Well he's right about boys having gas...
